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.

A Journey from Zurich via the Glacier Express and Bernina Routes.
Overview of your Zurich tour
Leave Zurich for the Alps via the legendary Glacier and Bernina routes. This journey, where world-class engineering meets cinematic nature, leads to a town at 1,800m with 320 sunny days—the ultimate epicenter of global exclusivity. St. Moritz is a private club for aristocrats and industrial titans. While its real estate tops Swiss charts, its true value lies in a "cultural DNA" born in 1864. Back then, British travelers thought the Alps were uninhabitable in winter. Hotelier Johannes Badrutt bet four guests they’d love the season, promising to pay their stay if they didn't. Iconic Events: White Turf: Legendary horse races on the frozen lake where competitive thrills meet high-society glamour. The quintessence of Alpine elegance, turning the ice into a runway for style. The I.C.E. St. Moritz: The world’s most stylish automotive showcase, where priceless Bugattis and Ferraris drift across the mirrored ice—a modern manifesto of luxury.
Your Zurich tour itinerary
08:38 — Departure from Zurich The journey begins along the shores of Lake Zurich, passing vineyards, ancient monasteries, and secluded villas. Next is Lake Walen (Walensee). Here, against vertical cliffs, you’ll spot unique vineyards. Thanks to a rare microclimate, these southern slopes soak up the sun, creating an anomalous pocket of warmth amidst the rugged peaks. Arrival in Chur. Ahead lie two hours of "unbearable beauty": Instagram-worthy viaducts, waterfalls, and gorges that everyone should see at least once. 11:55 — Arrival in St. Moritz * Walk the Lake: Feel the scale and the silence of the mountains. Lunch at Hanselmann: A legendary café where tradition is served by the slice. Photos at the Kulm Hotel: The symbolic heart of the town where winter tourism was born. Note on the Kulm: In 2025, Netflix released the series "Winter Palace," which tells the story of this legendary hotel. If you're planning a visit, it’s a must-watch for inspiration. 16:47 — Departure to Zurich 19:53 — Arrival in Zurich
