Hello everyone, my name is Julia, and I would love to introduce you to the Switzerland I know and love. Switzerland for me is not just a travel destination — it is my everyday life. I live and work in the very heart of Zürich, surrounded by the rhythms, traditions, and quiet beauty of Swiss life, and create tailor-made journeys across Switzerland, offering private tours in Zürich, Lucerne, and Bern. My partner’s family comes from Bern and Zürich, and through these close local connections I have become deeply immersed in Swiss culture and community. My story began with music and theatre: I studied cello at a specialized music school and later graduated from the acting department of the Kyiv Theatre Institute, after which I worked in theatre. This background shaped the way I guide. I spent over ten years living and working in Venice. I started out in a travel agency, which gave me a deep understanding of how trips are organized, and later obtained my official guide license. I led tours in Venice and the Prosecco wine region, combining historical sites with fascinating stories. Now in Switzerland, I continue doing what I love and offer only the experiences that I genuinely enjoy myself. I’ll show you the beauty of Switzerland and its hidden gems. Let’s create your perfect journey together! I have all the requirements of the Swiss government to fulfil professionally my work. I am certificated travel guide of Venice and I have a guide license in the city of Chernihiv, Ukraine. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate professional car&driver. Please contact me even if I am unavailable! Switzerland with Julia.

    Julia was a great guide to introduce us to Lucerne. After spending a couple hours exploring with her, we felt ready to enjoy the city for the next few days on our own. She answered all of our questions. We would recommend her!

    Julia was delightful, fun, and super knowledgeable. Thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour in Zurich and highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn all about the city, it's history and have a delightful conversation along the way!

    Thank you very much for your wonderful review. It was a real pleasure meeting you and spending time together. I’m only sorry that the weather was so hot, which made it a little less comfortable than we would have liked. I wish you all the very best and hope our paths cross again someday.

    Julia is energetic, smart, playful and funny - everything we look for in a guide. We will look for her again when we are anywhere in Switzerland or Italy where she guides.
