The best tour we have ever had. - I booked Swiss epic tours months ago and the communication between Catharina and the other staff was always amazing. We had a little hiccup in our itinerary yesterday and they completely accommodated us. Fernando was our guide and he felt like family. He was early to get us and knew we were on a time crunch. He took us to the best locations for the time we had. The weather and views were perfect and we had the most amazing day. Switzerland was absolutely beautiful and pictures will never do justice for what we saw. Thank you Fernando and Swiss epic tours for treating us like family. We will forever remember our day there. ❤️

Incredible day with Fernando - We had an amazing day with Fernando. The transportation was 1st class, as was the entire day. Fernando was very knowledgeable and really made sure that we saw all of the incredible sights. He went above and beyond to make this experience unforgettable. The beauty of the region is unmatched and being able to experience it with short hikes, as well as incredible views was special. The local village of Isenfluh was a highlight and Fernando was very accommodating to our requests. I highly recommend Epic Swiss tours for any adventure you seek in the alps. Ask for Fernando!

A Day In The Beautiful Swiss Alps - The beauty of this trip is almost indescribable. The Swiss Alps did I not disappoint. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area and took us to some “hidden gems”. Our lunch spot was delightful and the views were stunning.

Great Private Tour of Swiss Countryside - This tour exceeded our expectations and a great way to see some of the beautiful landscape of Switzerland. Our guide picked us up at our hotel in Lucerne and was extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the area. He scheduled a full day tour and was flexible to make some minor adjustments based upon once he better understood our interests. You will see some breathtaking country and he took us to a small restaurant at the top of a mountain with fabulous views. I would recommend this full day tour if you are staying in Lucerne or nearby and have the time.

Wonderful private tour to Bernese Oberland & Swiss countryside - Our family of 8, ages 16 to 80, went on a south-bound Rhine river cruise which ended in Switzerland. From Zurich, we booked a private excursion to the Bernese Oberland region. Fernando took us in a "swanky" 9-passenger van. He was an excellent driver-guide. He recommended that we added a trip to Aare Gorge, and it was an excellent suggestion. We thoroughly enjoyed the views at Lake Lungern and Lake Brienz and the hike behind the Geissbach Waterfall. Probably the most spectacular was the nostalgic cable car ride at Isenfluh and the view of the "Big Three" mountains of Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau. We also made a quick trip to Staubbach Falls. But we ran out of time to do Interlaken and Bern. However, we were happy with everything we have seen. It was the highlight of our trip!

Fernando is the best. - We had a private tour with Fernando. We have gone all over Europe and he is BY FAR the best guide we’ve ever had. When he picked us up, the first thing he did was ask us what we wanted to see and do, what we liked and didn’t like, and he took it from there. He is very knowledgeable and super friendly. If you are thinking of taking this tour with Fernando your biggest regret will be if you decide NOT to go. Just do it. It will be a day you won’t forget.

Great Service, Awesome Experience! - I booked a private tour for our group, family of 8 members ranging from ages 35 to 88. Catharina was fantastic with keeping in touch with me and accommodating my wants and keeping attention to my needs and considering the ages and physical limitations of my group. Every email with questions were answered promptly with comforting answers. It was easy to choose Swiss Epic Tours as the company I wanted to take care of us for our first trip to Switzerland. Mr. Stephan greeted us at our hotel promptly with a big cheery smile and demeanor. A beautiful and comfortable coach with more than ample room for all of us!! The sights he brought us to were those out of postcards!! Unbelievable how beautiful this country is! In additional to the sights, Mr. Stephan was so animated in his stories and history of the country. It was easy to tell that he loves his home, and it made us fall in love with it also!
