The guided city tour with night watchman Ralf in Lucerne was an absolute highlight! Its exciting explanations, vivid stories and vivid depiction of life in the Middle Ages have made the tour an unforgettable experience. With a lot of humor, expertise and passion, he leads through the streets and brings the history of the city to life. Highly recommended!

I'm a pizza lover. The traditional , the real daisy with buffalo and look good, for me does not exist if there is no basil beyond the tomato. I am also a fan of mushrooms, especially mountain and porcini mushrooms and how can I not be intrigued by a mentioned pizza Gourment with porcini mushrooms? It was the discovery at Ti e MI in Sant’Ambrogio, the Neapolitan pizzeria that in this period has a particular attention to porcini mushrooms. I was thrilled by the combination of flavors: the freshest porcini mushrooms, sautéed and parsleyd on a white base with only a few pieces of tomato. The dough, it was then explained to me, risen 58 hours and cooked to perfection with a cornice.
Good tour for families.

Walking around a night gave this tour a very real picture of what medieval Lucerne was like. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. This was by far the most enjoyable walking tour out of about six on this trip.
