Knows exactly how to do everything with all the little details covered! - This was our second time touring with Leighton, and once again he gave us an unbelievable experience! From the train ride from Lucerne to Zermatt to the Glacier Paradise tour, everything was seamless, insightful, and unforgettable. Leighton’s knowledge, warmth, and attention to detail make every trip with him truly special. Highly recommend!

Wonderful day trip from Basel to Zermatt - Leighton was an amazing guide, going out of his way to make sure the day ran smoothly. He is a fountain of knowledge and made sure everyone was well taken care of, even the Celuac traveling with us. However, Viator switched our trip to a small group without telling us or mentioning a change in pickup location. Luckily the tour company was on top of it and everything worked out perfectly!

Delightful day trip from Basel to Zermatt - Leighton was an amazing guide, going out of his way to make sure everything ran smoothly and without a glitch. He's a fountain of knowledge and made sure everyone was well taken care of. He even made sure to accommodate the strict dietary needs of a Celiac in our party.

Mary’s bucket list trip - we had a wonderful day and are very satisfied with our choice to book a private tour. Santiago made it special for our elderly mother and us to create these amazing memories. The trains, the professional care, and most of all getting us all up to the lookout platform so we could fully appreciate the beautiful Swiss Alps and especially the Matterhorn

Unforgettable experience would highly recommend! - Had a great time with Juliana! She took really good care of us and we didn't feel rushed. The highlight of the tour was the ice cave for us. We were able to see breathtaking scenery. Would highly recommend this tour!
