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.

Dear Katie, Thank you so very much for trusting me with your group. It was truly a pleasure to meet Tommi and the others, and I genuinely enjoyed spending time with all of you. I sincerely hope we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future. Thank you once again for your kindness and trust. Warm regards, Julia

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.

Thank you very much for your kind words. It was a pleasure meeting you and showing you the Lucerne & Rigi. I very much hope we will meet again in the future. Wishing you all the best. Julia
Julia made my trip to Zurich. She was very knowledgeable and was an incredible guide. She interspersed humor and facts. She had great recommendations and was highly communicative. Having her as your guide is worth the trip to Zurich. She also has vast knowledge and experience with most of the area and is capable of guiding far and wide.

Thank you for choosing me as your guide. Time flew by so quickly. I wish you all the best and hope to be your guide again one day.
We toured with Julia on a Sunday when all of Zurich shops were closed but she managed to make a walk through the old city interesting despite that fact. She was quick to respond to pre tour correspondence, arrived promptly for the tour and was a pleasure to spend a quiet Sunday morning strolling through Zurich with.
