Guided walking tours: Basel, Geneva, Lausanne & more

The same two-hour private format as Zurich and Bern, in six more cities. A local guide, your group only, starting at your hotel door — and at CHF 240 for up to eight people it costs less than eight seats on a shared tour.

What makes this day worth it

  • Basel — the Münster, Marktplatz, the old town alleys and the Rhine promenade
  • Geneva — the old town, the cathedral and the lakefront with the Jet d’Eau
  • Lausanne — the cathedral, the medieval core and the Ouchy waterfront
  • Fribourg — a medieval town on the language border, largely undiscovered
  • Vevey and Zermatt — a Riviera town and a car-free alpine village
  • Private guide, your group only, starting at your hotel

How the day runs

  1. 1

    Tell us your city and date

    Pick from Basel, Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg, Vevey or Zermatt when you send the request.

  2. 2

    Meet your guide at your hotel

    No meeting point to find. The two hours begin at your door.

  3. 3

    The old town

    Every one of these cities has a compact historic core, and that is where the walk concentrates — the squares, the churches, the fountains and the stories behind them.

  4. 4

    The water

    Basel has the Rhine, Geneva and Lausanne have the lake, Zermatt has the Matterhorn instead. Each walk finishes with the view the city is known for.

On the day

Questions people ask before booking

Which cities exactly?

Basel, Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg, Vevey and Zermatt. Zurich and Bern have their own pages. Same format and same price in all of them.

Is CHF 240 per person?

No — the whole group, up to eight people.

Which city is most worth it?

Basel if you like art and architecture, Geneva if you are already there for a flight, Fribourg if you want somewhere without other tourists, Zermatt if you want the Matterhorn without a hike.

Can we book more than one?

Yes, and people often do — a two-hour walk in each city they overnight in. Tell us the cities and dates together and we will quote them as one request.

Is Zermatt different?

A little. It is car-free and alpine rather than a historic city, so the walk is about the village, the mountaineering history and the Matterhorn viewpoints.
