A highlight of our Switzerland trip
We had the best time learning about Bern’s old town on Nur’s walking tour and we came away knowing so much more about its history than if we’d just explored on our own. Nur is a laid back, knowledgeable guide who was happy to take time for all our questions along the way. She was a delight to spend our afternoon with and we recommend her tour highly.

Spectacular Bern Experience
My walking tour of Bern's UNESCO Old Town, led by Nur, was a remarkably fascinating lesson in Swiss history. Nur's knowledge was just incredible, but what really made the tour stand out over tours I've taken before was her timing in arriving at the Zytglogge Tower just as the clock began its show at noon. Her descriptions of the major sites in Bern were just spot on. She even suggested a great place for an afternoon drink at the terrace of the Hotel Bellevue which overlooks The Old Town, the Aare river and was right next to the Parliament building. 5 stars, highly recommended
