Verzasca valley

5.00This tour was 7-8 hours of exploration of the mountains north of Lugano. We stopped at tiny villages, water falls, river, and lakes. It was beautiful to explore the pre alps with a guide that seemed to know everyone along the way.
Great day! Highly recommend!

5.00The Valle Verzasca with its clear river and impressive waterfall is simply fantastic! The private tour in Ascona was particularly beautiful – very informative and personal. An unforgettable excursion!
Humorous and engaging experience

5.00Giorgio was a wonderfully humorous and knowledgeable host. He treated us like old friends he was sharing the countryside with. He happily shared the historical and socio-political contexts of this region. He even purchased a local wine for us! I’d happily recommend him to anyone and am sad that we can’t go on more of his offered tours!
Top day!

5.00Really attractive - park further up the valley, hand over your ransom for three hours, then go and enjoy the bridge, water, and village.

5.00The scenery was beautiful! We loved seeing villages and churches built in the 1500-1600s that were still going strong today. The waterfalls were gorgeous and our guide was very knowledgeable!
