Hello everyone, Beautiful region and charming village of Morcote 😍😀.Great stay this summer in love.We strongly advise this region and this small village where it is good to live 😎👍👋
No so great for people from USA… severe language challenge… didn’t learn anything unfortunately. Better off exploring on our own.
Our tour guide was great! He showed us many beautiful views! We explored around Lake Lugano , Morcote, and he gave us great food and gelato recommendations!
Lugano and Morcote are both pretty towns which you will know better with this tour. Our guide was Giorgio who was knowledgeable and entertaining. He even took us to the St. Salvatore fonicular at the end of the tour and we went on our own.
The views were spectacular and the information shared was interesting. It would have been more interesting if the tour didn’t include so many churches and if the guide customized the tour to the interests of the customer.
My name is Enrico, our guides just follow the guided tour program: the guide reported that you are not interested in churches, therefore the visit to some of them has been a avoided. The guided tour list of stops and attractions is displayed when you book a certain certain tour, we never had any complaint about this tour before.
A beautiful Swiss town on Lake Lugano The ascent from the shore to the church of Santa Maria leaves you astonished when you see breathtaking views of Ceresio In any season recommended If you then add the visit to Sherer Park everything amplifies
Georgio was very knowledgeable and attentive. The lake is beautiful and we could imagine it on a better day weather wise as to how lovely it could be.
Very good tour with a very informative operator! Morcote is a small, charming town which is worth a visit.
A great guide Giorgio who provided interesting information and sprinkled humor into his presentation. Well worth the price.
I had a wonderful morning tour with your guide Giorgio, we started with my pick up in Lugano and headed to Marcote. Marcote was wonderful village full of history and culture and not to mention the amazing views! I found Giorgio to be very informative he has an extensive knowledge of Lugano and surroundings. I also found him very funny. I finished my trip by purchasing some Swiss chocolate! I highly recommend this tour and make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes.
