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.

Overview of your Lucerne tour

Board the Luzern-Interlaken Express for an unforgettable journey through Switzerland’s stunning landscapes, with steep valleys, waterfalls, and mountain vistas. This panoramic train ride connects two famous destinations and is one of Switzerland’s top 5 routes. Our adventure starts in Lucerne with a 1.5-hour scenic ride to Brienz. From there, we’ll board the historic Brienz-Rothorn Railway, reaching 2,350 meters for breathtaking views of the Bernese Alps, Lake Brienz, and nearby mountains. We’ll enjoy a break at the mountaintop restaurant. Afterward, we’ll descend to the lake, experiencing the pristine beauty of the region, described by Rousseau as “paradise on Earth.” In Interlaken, you can choose to ascend Harder Kulm for panoramic views or visit Lauterbrunnen, famous for its waterfalls. Finally, we’ll return to Lucerne, completing a day full of Swiss beauty and adventure.
