Highlights
The tours in our catalog are fun, interactive, and adaptable. You will receive the standard historical data but also the quirky anecdotes that make a town a home.
Your guide: Native of the French-speaking part of Switzerland, I have been guiding Swiss-curious groups since 2020. I enjoy sharing my joy at hearing new historical anecdotes about places and their people. I can take visitors with me on those journeys in English, French or German.
English has become my natural language, after spending a few years in London, training as a theater technician and working in a cinema. I have also extensively traveled the USA.
