Lugano Private Walking Tour with a Local

Lay of the land

Lugano is a beautiful city and it was lovely to get a walking tour with a local. It really gave us the lay of the land, and we saw some corners we probably woulnd't have found on our own. I could tell how much our guide loved the city and was excited to share it with us. I wish I had spent more time there. That said, our guide couldn't help us when our parking plans backfired. She also didn't tweak the tour to accommodate my parents (in their 70s) in the extreme heat.

Hidden Stories of Gandria Lugano

Magical and exclusive

Our guide, Richard, offered us a truly magical tour! It was incredible to see how this man collected over the years, with curiosity and passion, a multitude of details, stories, legends, images and even passages belonging to Gandriese history. It was not only the classic tour of the most famous monuments, but an exclusive experience told by those who lived and researched Gandria from the heart 😍
