What a wonderful afternoon, Fernando picked my mother and I up promptly at our hotel in Zurich and took us on a drive to the Rhine Falls, and helped us negotiate the large queues to get fantastic vantage points.
He then took us back to Zurich for a tour of town and various vantage points before dropping us back to our hotel.
If you need a tour guide, Fernando is your man!

We traveled through Switzerland with 2 other couples, and I could not imagine a more enjoyable vacation. Ceilio was our tour guide, and by taking us to hidden gems he made the trip more personal and impactful. He was entertaining, very knowledgeable and professional. He made sure all our needs were met and helped us navigate any issues that came up. I would also like to thank Francisco, who had to the responsibility of getting us to the Interlaken train station one morning. He was our driver the previous day and I mentioned I was a little worried about getting everyone on the right train. He was not familiar with the Interlaken train station, so he took it upon himself to go the night before to the station, find an optimum place to park and then walk through the train station so he would know the quickest route to our car. The next morning instead of just dropping us off, he parked, took us to the right location and made sure we got onto the right train car. No stress! I would definitely recommend Swiss Epic Tours to anyone......Steve H.

We spent 5 days on private tours with Swiss Epic Tours. Our fabulous experience started from the first communication with Catharina. She responded promptly and thoughtfully to my (many!) email. She arranged our day tours with great consideration for my elderly mother in a wheelchair.
We started with a Zurich city tour including a ferry ride and a visit to Lindt. The following days we visited Bern, Lucerne, the Bernese Oberland, Stein am Rhein and Rheinfalls. Nuno and Robi were our driver/guides and we couldn’t have asked for better service. They’re great company, good-humored, so knowledgeable, kind and accommodating and fun to be with. They shared interesting ‘fun facts’ and stories about the many places and we visited.
On our day to the Bernese Oberland, Catharina arranged for us to take a local cable car up to Isenfluh. From Isenfluh, you’d have a direct view of Monch, Eiger and Jungfrau. It’s somewhat off the radar and just perfect for us as we had the cable car to ourselves. With a wheelchair, going somewhere quieter without the tourist crowds and visiting a local village was a dream! Catharina gleaned from our communications that this is the type of experience we desired. We then went to Grindelwald and had lunch at a charming family-run restaurant that overlooked all of Grindelwald.
We were in Zurich during the Sechseläuten Festival (which I’d highly recommend) and much to our delight, Swiss Epic Tours obtained front row seats for the outdoor parade on festival day.
Each day held something very special and because of Swiss Epic Tours, we were able to travel comfortably, see so many things and learn so much in a week’s time. Swiss Epic Tours did an amazing job of welcoming us and providing us with unforgettable experiences! Heartfelt thanks to Catharina, Nuno and Robi!
