Switzerland

Hi there, I'm Chris living and running private and exclusive tours from Luzern, Switzerland. My aim is simple: when you get out of the car after a tour, I want you to have the feeling that you have really experienced something special and have had the best time in a very relaxed environment with a chap, in his comfy car driving round the Swiss countryside and towns. I moved from Manchester in 2000 to Luzern and immediately fell in love with this magical place. The reason I came to Switzerland was for a job in football, my passion. At the same time, with my family, I was able to discover and explore the Lake Luzern area and over time travel further into the neighbouring Swiss regions and enjoy the stunning landscapes, culture and traditions. 3 years ago we started a holiday flat business attached to where we live in Luzern and it has been a huge success. We enjoy welcoming guests from all corners of the world and try to make them feel at home and offer advice on where to go, what to do, etc. At the same time, I decided to embark on the driver/guide business and joined a local travel company. Finally, a couple years ago, I felt confident to start my own tour guiding business. I have a 6 seater (5 for multi-day tours) Mercedes V Class minivan and organize tours in most parts of Switzerland. I am also licensed to drive minivans up to 18 people and in these cases for bigger groups, I would hire a van. The main areas covered are Lake Luzern, Bernese Oberland /Bern, Rheinfalls and Zurich. I also run Multi day tours to further afield places. I like to create customized tours to suit individuals and am happy to invest time to do this for you. I know the best places to go, which will be a mix of some tourist hot spots you should see. However over time I have also discovered some little known villages, mountain trips and local attractions. I believe I can cater for all tastes and whether you want a very relaxing or adrenalin packed time, there are options to suit. Whether it's a local bakery, a small cheese factory, a traditional farm, a bar with the best view in town for a sundowner, a convenient place to take a dip in a lake, there are multiple places in my inventory, which you can tap into - all we need to do Big and Breaking News - October 21 - 100 reviews reached online from guests from all over the world for Tours in Switzerland Since August 21, the Covid fight back has begun and business is slowly but steadily getting back to normal. Here is a recent review "Wonderful experience Review of: Best of the Bernese Oberland from Luzern What a wonderful experience! The itinerary was carefully thought through and well balanced. It was a wonderfully organized trip with beautiful cruising, picturesque spots and fascinating lectures on the region and history. Chris is competent, funny and intuitive. Excellent service" Wonderful 5 days with Chris W! Review of: 5 day Private Tour of Central Switzerland including Luzern, Grindelwald & Zurich Wow! Chris was great from picking us up in Zurich all the way to dropping us off in Basel 5 days later! He worked with us to customize the trip to include a canyon swing and hang gliding along with a lot of the recommended sites to visit he lists on his website. We even stayed in his Airbnb!! Chris was totally flexible with the needs of the 4 of us, 2 couples, with sleep ins when needed, milk, croissants and eggs at our doorstep and shuttling from late night dinners. He is completely accommodating!! I would recommend Chris and TST to anyone looking to experience Switzerland!! I think we have found a friend for life and look forward to seeing him. 2020 - I have just won an Award for Private Tour Operator of the Year 2020 Switzerland from the Travel and Hospitality (London) Awards. And even more Big News - June 2020, I have won Private Tour, Guide of the Year Switzerland 2020 from LTG - Luxury Tour Guide. **My tour company is adhering to the "Clean & Safe" program adopted by Swiss Tourism ensuring the highest standards of cleanliness and safety post-Covid 19. **

Tour in style and comfort

Yoshi: Our family had an incredible tour with Yoshi! Cruising around in his convertible Range Rover with the roof down was such a cool way to see the sights—it made the whole experience even more special. Yoshi was super flexible, adjusting the tour to include all the places we wanted to see, and he even went out of his way to take us to Osaka. One of the highlights was a sushi spot he took us to that was filled with locals, something we would’ve never found on our own. Yoshi was so sweet and made sure everyone in the group felt safe, especially my dad, who walks slowly. He was really patient and thoughtful the whole time. He also took some fantastic photos of us throughout the day, capturing great memories. Yoshi made the whole experience feel effortless, and we couldn’t recommend him enough!

Personalized Day Tour in Tokyo

Jamie : My family and friends had an unforgettable day with Jamie as our guide in Tokyo. He took us to beautiful shrines and temples, and the markets were a highlight—we played local games like a shooting game for toys and found some really unique gifts that we haven’t seen anywhere else in Japan. For lunch, Jamie brought us to this incredible little hole-in-the-wall spot that we never would have discovered on our own, and the food was fantastic. Jamie made everything so much fun, sharing his knowledge of the city and offering great recommendations for bars and nightlife, which really helped us make the most of our evening too. He was super sweet, easy to hang out with, and even took some amazing photos for us throughout the day. If you want to experience Tokyo like a local, we can’t recommend Jamie enough!
