The Best Switzerland Vacation Packages

Doug was an energetic, knowledgeable tour guide. He was passionate about touring and we enjoyed spending the day with him!

If you are looking to do things outdoors, not run-of-the-mill, and with variety, Doug’s your guide! He thoughtfully organized a full day visit in the Lucerne region: city, lake, and mountain. The described itinerary was met fully, yet he frequently offered the option to add or delete bits as circumstances allowed. Thus, we felt he was striving to maximize our experience, not just check stops off his list.

Had a wonderful day exploring Lucern and Mt. Pitalus! Doug showed up promptly and catered the tour to our abilities and desires! The views were amazing and the whole day was exactly what we desired and wanted! We could ask for no better way to start our vacation! Thanks Doug!!

Doug was a magician. Our original plans were blown up when it poured. Rather than a boat ride, cable car and tram excursion we spent the day in Doug’s very comfortable and spacious SUV. We spent the time in the ALPS finding enough space between the rain drops to have an enjoyable day and capture waterfalls and snow capped peaks. One of the highlights was a leisurely Sunday lunch with towns’ people at Hotel Stechelberg in the Alps near Interlaken.

Our guide (Doug C) in Lucerne was exceptional. My partner and I used his services for two days, and so glad we did. He was very flexible, easy going, knowledgeable, and fun to be with. We had a wonderful time with him. Well done Doug

Doug was friendly, knowledgeable and tailored our tour of Mt Rigi specifically to our group and the weather. It was cold snowy day, but we had a fabulous time hiking and sampling food along the way. He’s a great guide! We felt like he was a long time friend rather than someone we met hours earlier. Thanks Doug! Carol and the Orlando crew.

Our family had a great day with Doug hiking Mt. Rigi. Truly beautiful. Doug was very knowledgeable about the area and had us laughing throughout the day. I would highly recommend Doug and we would definitely seek his services if we find ourselves in the area again.

Doug was the perfect tour guide for our visit to the picturesque Bernese Oberland Region in Switzerland. We had no hassle of renting a car and driving and wasting time with directions. He is charming and a good driver and showed us many highlights. At a 12th century old castle by Lake Thun, we experienced a jaw dropping magnificent panoramic views of the Alps and the lake. Doug drove us to several villages in the area. Loved Grindelwald! Thank you Doug for a great 2-day tour and the pictures you took!

Doug was fabulous – knowledgeable, punctual, flexible, and extremely considerate of all our needs and requests. It was fun traveling with him for three days, and he was so informative regarding all aspects of his country. We really felt as though we got to know Switzerland more intimately because of him. When we return to Switzerland, we hope to have him guide us again.

Doug was very flexible with what we wanted to do. He did a wonderful job of researching the area before the tour. We will definitely ask for Doug again.

I am a repeat customer of this guide due to his excellent tour of Mt. Pilatus yesterday, see review. Doug’s vast exprerience kayaking makes joining this Private Kayak Tour in Lake Luzern a no-brainer. Despite sudden change in the weather, his experience and positive disposition guided me through wind and waves alike. He was very cognisant of my ability, and happily adjusted the tour accordingly. Needless to say, Doug took lots of amazing photos. Thanks again Doug, my highest recommendation!

We had an amazing tour with Doug! It was a bit rainy, so Doug had great ideas to maximize our tour on a day when the weather wasn’t going to cooperate. We took the train and saw some breathtaking mountain & waterfall views, then did a hike through a local gorge. We were able to be outside, but still kept mostly dry by the steep cliff walls & caves. The scenery was like nothing we have ever seen! Doug is energetic, super-fun and he knows the area and it’s history. That’s a perfect combination!

Doug was very patient and helpful while we were designing a private tour for our group. Although he’s from Lucerne, he agreed to do our tour of Zurich for us. He planned the route to all the attractions we wanted to see. We didn’t have to do much walking. Although we only had a 6-hour tour with him, he was worth every minute. He was most accommodating, jovial and easy-going. Doug also arranged a driver/car from Zurich for us. The driver was a gem too. Thanks, Doug
