No issues here so have no concerns that you might be left stranded or that your guide doesn't speak your language or that the tour is somehow altered or changed. However at the price my partner and I were surprised at lack of basic historical facts so check the resume of guide if you are a stickler for detailed knowledge of experiences in this tour.

This was absolutely delightful. We couldn't have had a better time,due to our incredible guide,Ulrich. He was very knowledgeable and respectful of our intentions. He made the long ride entertaining as well as educational. We would definitely use his service again. Our only issue was trying to reach your office by phone a couple of days before our trip to confirm and not being able to reach anyone. This created undo stress and it totally unacceptable and needs to be addressed. Thank you for our great guide. Maurice & Teena Nanoia

I travel a lot to Europe and was looking for something fun and new... Found this online a while back and chose the 4 nights/3 drives/790Km tour from Zurich. From start to finish the tour was well organized, with excellent hotels and a perfect route packed with incredible roads and wonderful scenery. Piloting the Porsche 911 over the high alpine roads was probably one of the best couple of days I ever spent in Europe!
