Ursula was a most clear and informative guide. She was entertaining and factual and we were both pleased to have show us around Lucerne.

Ursula gave a very interesting tour in English and German (!). Very informative and also humorous. You can tell she loves her job.

The phone led guided tour covered all key points on a very wet day. We discovered many otherwise hidden treasures.

Route was very well chosen, all explanations well prepared, everything in two languages. Gladly again.

The info provided about the different places was really interesting
