Overview

With our walking tours, you’ll skip the mundane historical tours and discover the city through a local’s eyes. Experience a tour that will transform the way you travel to make it as much about the people you meet, as it is the places you see. Our local guides (Lokafyers) are passionate about their city and eager to share their knowledge and perspective. Since Lokafyers are not professional guides and tour occasionally, they provide an experience that’s authentic and personal, like a friend showing you around their city. By the end of the tour, you'll feel comfortable navigating the city and confident that you have all the information you need to make the most of your stay.

Basel City and the Tripoint

Published on Dec, 2024

We booked this tour as 2 friends traveling with just a few hours in Basel. It was a private tour which is a nice change of pace. Walid was completely flexible with timing and allowed us a comprehensive view of the city, and even a field trip out to the tripoint as well. We entered a few beautiful buildings and were given options on which ones we wanted to climb. We were given lots of recommendations for other things to do after the tour, which we took him up on! We learned a little about architecture, history, the universities and museums. He took us through beautiful streets and we stopped several times for pictures. He was a jovial guide and was easy to work with in determining our goals for the tour. It was a relaxing and personal experience. He answered our many questions easily. Just what we needed!

We had a fantastic day in Lucerne thanks to our guide, Ueli. He was absolutely wonderful and it was one of the best tours we have ever done.

Great tour before Viking cruise

Published on May, 2024

Thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour even in the rain. We were departing on a Viking cruise later in the day and this was perfect to see a bit of Basel.
