Nice personal tour. - Martin was our guide and was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was great getting a view of the city from a local perspective. He was able to explain what we saw and give us the history and cultural background. Really enjoyed our time with him.

Beautiful Lucerne - Our tour guide was so great. He did a great job. Our only criticism is not about him, but the "cruise on Lake Lucerne" is not what I would consider a cruise of the lake at all. It was a ferry ride to drop other patrons off at another stop and then came back. That is not a "touristy cruise" - it was just tagging along on a passenger drop off.

Luzern view - Funny tour with an entertaining tour guide. Absolutely suitable for first-time visitors. Was exactly as described and the boat tour allows for nice perspectives.

old town Luzern - must see - Travelled with friends and booked this tour to be with them in the same group. Lucky us, we have been just four of us on this tour - very comfy. Nice walk-around in the city with time to step into shops - not this typical tour where you rush around. Tourguide took us to a lake boat shuttle which was a nice finish for this tour.

Great - a tour withouth headphones! - We visited Lucerne again and it was a perfect tour about the time & distance. We got the overview about the historic city and we're happy that it was a small group tour without using headphones and just walk in a line. We were just 6 on this tour and it was easy to have a personal exchange with the funny tourguide.

Great day exploring - Had a great day with our tour guide, however it was a little hard to find them as the instructions are clear enough where to meet and the guide was wearing nothing to indicate they were the guide, we had to take a guess and approach random people! Knowledgable day and great boat tour

Not worth the money$$$! - Tour director needs a microphone and audio should be provided- difficult to hear. We skipped the walking tour and only did the boat cruise at the end which we would not recommend- not enough outdoor platforms. Abraham was knowledge . Also website said 2 hr tour but told more like 4hrs.

Definitely not worth the money! - Our guide was not local, but arrived by train from Zurich. We walked around the city with one other couple. Our guide knew when the churches were built/burned down/rebuilt, but not much else. We learned about the Lion of Lucerne, grabbed a sandwich. Because we waited in the shade for the boat trip, we missed the chance for seats with a good view. A total waste of $200!
