    Antonio was a great driver and was very kind and helpful with my disabled husband. He was punctual to pick us up and punctual at the train and also the pick up when we were done on the train. He answered our questions as best he could, and he was very professional, pleasant, and friendly the entire day. He was a very caring man, and we enjoyed our entire day with him! We highly recommend Antonio for a driver . Ana was our guide in Lucerne and was also excellent! She gave us so much information and made sure that we were able to see so very much even though my husband is disabled. She was very informative about Lucerne, Old Town, the lion statue, and the church that we saw in Lucerne. You can tell she loves her city! She was very upbeat, professional, and caring continually about my husband's needs and making sure that we were seeing so much in the beautiful city of Lucerne. She is a happy person and her smile is contagious. If you need a guide in Lucerne, Ana is the very best! As for the tour itself, the Glacier Express train ride was fabulous. The Alps are magnificent and the Alpine villages that we viewed along the way were beautiful. The drives through the mountains to the train and then to Lucerne were also so very beautiful. This is a fabulous tour and we highly recommend it! (Jonas was also excellent to work with in planning the tour – thank you Jonas!)
