The time I spent in Lugano was short but thanks to the incredible tour guide Violetta I had the opportunity to discover the city in all its facets. ​She is a very prepared and full of knowledge guide who answered to all my questions and doubts concerning the city and its history. During the tour, we also had time to enjoy together a coffee with a breathtaking lake view (of course, keeping the safety distance - Violetta was very careful in following all the hygiene measures)! In conclusion, I definitely recommend this tour to all the people who want to have fun while learning (and of course, walking)! What are you waiting for? Wear your best shoes and get ready to discover the hidden sides of Lugano!

Excellent service. Here amazing help and support. Many thanks to Swiss Epic Tours. Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay are the staff. All of the people are incredibly helpful and generous with their time and advice. We travelled with two six year olds and lots of luggage and despite the stairs up to the elevator this was one of the nicest places we stayed in the four weeks

I have had a pleasure to have such an experienced and knowledgeable guide Violetta during our visit to Switzerland in April 2021. She has made me feel very warm and comfortable with her presence as well as our tour being very interesting and remarkable. She is a real professional with a lot of knowledge about the place and has a passion to what she is doing. Booking a tour with a guide making it unique and allowing you to save precious time during your tour and visit the main attractions with stories only locals can know and tell you. I would definitely recommend to book a tour with Violetta, because that way you will know and see more than you would on your own.

Como, the largest city in this region. Along the way we are regularly treated to beautiful views of small villages on the other side of the lake. The radiant sun makes it even more idyllic, but otherwise there is little to do in this region (at this time of year).

This city tour was very interesting and fascinating. I liked to hear all the knowledge and information our tour-guide Viviana could provide us with. She did this in a very good way, so we didn't felt to be in school, but together with a very good friend who knew a great deal about everything we saw around us. In this way also a very good start for our 2 weeks in Palermo to know, where we would like to explore more o go back to. Thank you very much Viviana, that was just marvellous! François + Esteban
