We enjoyed every minute of it. 11h is solid but just means most value for your buck as every minute is filled with amazing sights, laughters and activities. Our tour guide Kid was brilliant. His energy was contagious and his dedication to the group to ensure everyone is looked after and happy, is second to none. He is different to most travel guides, unique and quirky. He speaks fluent English and Swiss German. He knew the best shops, shared his knowledge and encouraged photography which is usually the most difficult part of a tour. He managed to keep 33 people together and made it look effortlessly easy (I’m sure it wasn’t). One guide, 11h, 33 people, lots to see and do = respect and appreciation. I highly recommend this your and if you got Kid as a tour guide, be assured that he will take care of everyone, with plenty of photos for those life-long memories.

Would have been a great experience had there been less crowds and more time. The tour operator though, I wouldn't recommend.

DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR. This tour is ruined by Mr.Kid the tour guide. 1) my family and 2 other families were left at a train station by this tour company. Reason is: the guide doesn’t speak proper english, we won’t understand any guidelines he says. If the train is in 4 minutes, why would a guide leave a group of 40 people at a toilet and leave us without any guidelines? 2) Mr.Kid: i) you are extremely irritating, unfunny, unprofessional and rude. You think your customers enjoy your stupid act? NO! I spoke to more than 15 people in the bus, not a single person enjoyed your guidance. ii) do not snatch people’s phones for taking photos, don’t “help” us. You snatched 3 customers’ phones that I saw. iii) You shouted at more than 3 customers, and many strangers at Jungfro. What gives you the right to shout at people? Who do you think you are? Mr.Kid; you are a tour guide, we pay you for a professional service, we are not beggars going on a free tour, we DO NOT and WILL NOT tolerate your stupidity. But we tolerated it, only because we did not want to ruin our trip anymore! And also the customer care person whom I contacted when we faced an issue, GO AND LEARN customer service. Soften your attitude To the tour company: LEARN to respect your customers, you depend on us, and we DONT depend on you

What a fantastic tour!! 11h is solid but just means, most value for your buck as every minute is filled with amazing sights, laughters and activities. Our tour guide Kid was brilliant. His energy was contagious and his dedication to the group to ensure everyone is happy and looked after, was second to none. He is different to most travel guides, unique and quirky.

He managed to keep 33 people together and made it look effortlessly easy (I’m sure it wasn’t but Kid’s commitment to the group was the key). I loved how he kept saying “my team”. It really felt like that, too. Thanks to Kid, everyone got great photos which will serve as life-long memories. I highly recommend this tour and if you got Kid as a guide, be assured that he will take care of everyone. Great time, great experience.

Had a wonderful time with my wife! It's a well organised program and the guide is very good too. Felt a bit short though compared to the travel time.
