Overview
The tours in our catalog are fun, interactive, and adaptable. You will receive the standard historical data but also the quirky anecdotes that make a town a home.
Your guide: Native of the French-speaking part of Switzerland, I have been guiding Swiss-curious groups since 2020. I enjoy sharing my joy at hearing new historical anecdotes about places and their people. I can take visitors with me on those journeys in English, French or German.
English has become my natural language, after spending a few years in London, training as a theater technician and working in a cinema. I have also extensively traveled the USA.
Meeting points
We are meeting inside the MHL (if the tour starts between 11am and 5pm) or in front of it. It is South of the Cathedral.
A brief walk around the tower with a historical context explanation. Built-in 1340, its primary role was to defend the Faubourg de l'Ale, a district outside the walls that then extended in front of the Porte de Saint-Laurent.
20 minutes
N/A
crossing the Chauderon Bridge. Built between 1904 and 1905, is made up of two parallel bridges
20 minutes
Casino de Montbenon
Visit the Montbenon Casino and its gardens. Built in 1908, the Casino de Montbenon enjoys a unique location in Lausanne. Contrary to what its name suggests, the “Casino” has never housed a games room.
20 minutes
N/A
View of the Grand Pont with historical explanations. Part of the designs by engineer Pichard to avoid the traffic jams in the old town, the Grand Pont is the first in several colossal urban projects. Work began in 1839 and was finished, with much pomp, in 1844 due to safety concerns
15 minutes
N/A
visit the train station and up on the platforms. Inaugurated in 1856, the train station changed the urban landscape of Lausanne drastically. The town started to grow South. The building as it is today dates to 1916.

I spent 3 hours on a tour of Lausanne with Ilona. Fantastic time! I've learned a lot of things and visited places I'd NOT find on my own! Ilona is very kind and pleasant person! Highly recommend to everyone who wants to discover Lausanne!
