We had the opportunity to tour with Chris and experience the best of Bernese Oberland. Chris spent many hours on zoom prior to our arrival planning out the perfect trip for us. His preplanning and his flexibility with working around the weather made for the perfect day. He is very knowledgeable of the area and customized activities that he knew we would enjoy based on our calls beforehand. He is absolutely the best guide we have ever used!

Chris was fantastic. I booked this tour a month in advance and he was in touch the whole time before the trip so he could know exactly what we were looking for. He picked us up all the way from Basel and showed us some of the most scenic spots in Switzerland. We had great conversations along the way as well. You can tell he is passionate about his work. He even went out of his way to make a couple stops that we requested outside of the agenda. I absolutely recommend Chris and his tours.
