A city tour guide, mountain guide and e-bike guide based in Lucerne, Switzerland. I have a Master's and Bachelor's degree in History, and I'm passionate about showing others my amazing city! After travelling all over the world, I fell in love with Lucerne and settled here in 2018. Having once been a tourist here myself, I know how overwhelming the Old Town can be - there's so much to see and so much to learn about! Now as a local, I love sharing my passion for this amazing city with others. :)
Welcome to Lucerne!
Join me on a walking tour to see the highlights of Lucerne's beautiful, historic Old Town.
You'll discover the secret histories and hidden meanings behind the attractions of old Lucerne, starting from the world-famous Chapel Bridge and looping through the Old Town to the Rittersche Palace and stunning Jesuit Church.
Along the way you'll learn about Lucerne, the 'The City of Lights' - you'll visit picturesque bridges, formidable towers, unique churches, intricate fountains, vibrant market squares, and twisting alleyways.
Book this tour and enjoy!
