    Our Reviews

    Our goal was to see as much as possible in 6 days while maintaining an unhurried approach. From the first contact, our experience was detailed perfection. Marc and his team managed everything from airport pickup to hotel and restaurant recommendations.

    We hoped to relax and not worry about anything — this expectation was exceeded. The team clearly listened to our preferences.

    Our main stops included Zurich, Appenzell, Liechtenstein, Lake Lucerne, Interlaken, Thun, Zermatt, and the vineyards around Montreux.

    The best element of our time was our top-tier guide, Manuel. His personality, knowledge, energy, and pride in his country were exceptional.

    Thanks to Luxury Tours Switzerland, our group of ten had an unforgettable experience. Everything was seamless.

    They created an itinerary that felt ambitious yet perfectly paced, giving us an extraordinary glimpse into Switzerland without feeling rushed.

    The booking process was clear, well-organized, and attentive.

    We can’t thank Luxury Tours Switzerland enough for crafting a journey that blended culture, nature, and relaxation. Switzerland exceeded every expectation.

    Donna M Donna M - October 2025

    I regularly book tours with Luxury Tours Switzerland for our hotel guests, and I can’t recommend them enough. Guests always come back happy. Josh and Marc are super knowledgeable and easygoing.

    I recently went on a tour with coworkers, and we were blown away. They took us to incredible hidden spots far from tourist crowds. Riding mountain scooters down a secret alpine road was a highlight.

    Their tours always feel fresh and tailored, like exploring Switzerland with friends.

    My family visited Switzerland for ten days and had an unforgettable trip. I dealt primarily with Jana but also received assistance from Joshua and Fabienne. We had an idea of certain places we wanted to see but also received invaluable guidance on beautiful places and hidden gems.

    Starting with a tour of Old Town Zurich, we went on to enjoy Appenzell, Lucerne, Mt Titlis, Jungfraujoch, Gimmelwald, the Schilthorn, Interlaken, the Goldenpass Express, Thun and Bern.

    Our guides Bruno and Elia were personable, knowledgeable, and professional. They ensured we saw as much as possible at our preferred pace.

    They also provided excellent lodging and dining recommendations, and the drivers were professional and safe. We never had to think about logistics. I can’t recommend Luxury Tours Switzerland enough.

    Thomas R Thomas R - September 2025

    We had the good fortune of selecting Luxury Tours Switzerland for our two-week visit to Switzerland. Our first communications with Joshua, Jana and Fabienne set the stage for an impeccably curated trip. We collaborated with the team to develop a customized trip.

    The itinerary was prepared with amazing detail and provided on a great app.

    The most impactful element of our holiday was our tour guide Manuel. He took us to places we would have never seen on our own and prepared delicious snacks daily. Manuel’s love and enthusiasm for his country made him an incredible ambassador and a pleasure to travel with.
