Tour Details

At the time of your choice, we'll meet at Piazza Riziero Rezzonico to begin this private tour of Lugano. Are you ready to get to know the most charming spots in this Swiss city with an Italian soul? It's under 30 kilometres (18.4 miles) from Lake Como!

During the tour, we'll stroll through this unique city's narrow streets, admiring the facades of its main buildings. Additionally, being a private tour, you'll be able to adjust the itinerary as you like. We'll stop in the areas that appeal to you the most to uncover all its secrets.

We'll even go back in time to the era of the Celts and Romans to find out about the city's founding by walking past spots as emblematic as the Piazza della Riforma and Inndependenza. Of course, we'll also swing by the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, whose surroundings offer incredible scenic views of Lake Lugano and the neighbouring mountains.

We'll discuss what life was like in the so-called Italian Risorgimento, learn about Lugano's connection to Napoleon, and find out many other fun facts which reveal the character of this town. We're sure they'll surprise you!

After a total of 2 hours, we'll say our goodbyes at the meeting point or another central zone of your choice.
