Vacation to Lucerne
My wife and I visited Lucerne for three days. The walking tour was one of our activities. Sophie was very prompt and professional. She was very knowledgeable about the area and it was fun learning about Lucerne history with her. I would strongly recommend this activity for anyone visiting Lucerne and Sophie was great.
