Born in the central part of Germany, I started with my parents hiking all over Europa while other kids laid at the beach. Soon as Teenager I was keen to achieve more and learned climbing and alpinism at the German Alpine Club. More than 15 years ago I decided to move to Switzerland, not for tax reason, but to be closer to the Alpes and thus being more flexible to cope with weather changes and alpine conditions. Now I am 55 years old and have almost 40 years of mountain and travel experience. I have guided many people, locals and tourists, here in Switzerland on snowshoes, ski, grampons and hiking boots. Furthermore, I am also course leader and guide for snowshoeing, alpine routes, trekking and via ferratas for the section Pilatus of the Swiss Alpine Club. Lucerne is my home base and from here I have explored all parts of Switzerland, from Ticino to Valais and Engadina. I know Central Switzerland very well and can show you attractive places in nature or cities. If you prefer we explore places away from the tourists' crowds, but if you are here for the first time you maybe would like to see the standard sights. I am very open to offer you tailor-made excursions, no matter if you are families or couples, colleagues or friends, naturalists, hikers or alpinists, photographers. Let me know your dream how to explore Switzerland and I show you the right place! I am looking forward to make your stay in Switzerland comfortable, joyful and memorable!

Overview of your Bern tour

Located in the centre of Switzerland, at the rive Aare and right at the base of the Alps Bern is definately one of the most scenic cities of Switzerland. It gained ist wealth due to the location on the trading route between Italy and Germany and many buildings give you an insight of the precious past of Bern as a mighty city state. We will visit the historical over 500 years old city center in the loop of the river Aare. See the famous clockwork at the Zytglogge within the city wall, admire the old townhall, get intimidated by the ogre fountain, observe the bears in their spacious habitat at the city edge and of course get close to the Bundeshaus, the seat of the Swiss governement. All within walking distance along medival lanes, through parks and over charming squares. Bern is one of the most liveable cities of the world!
