Maria provided a completely professional, enjoyable tour. Her enthusiasm for Geneva, especially for the Old Town, was infectious. More importantly, she has done her research into the history and facts of the city; in fact, her presentation is indistinguishable from the best of the tours by trained, professional guides that we have experienced. Moreover, when the weather on the day that the tour was originally booked turned quite undesirable for a walking tour, Maria was willing to change the day of the tour on the evening before the tour was to occur. That was greatly appreciated! Maria is truly dedicated to bringing the best experience she can for her clients. We had a wonderful tour that left us with a satisfying feeling that we had indeed seen many points that make Geneva the charming city it is. Maria made the tour memorable.

The uniqueness of our tours is that you can customize the itinerary according to your preference and schedule. It's great that our Lokafyer was able to show you different places in the city and it also made your stay in the city memorable. We appreciate you recommending our tours highly.

Unfortunately, our guide was not very good. He was a nice person, but we would like him to tell us more about the city and its history, to be better prepared for where to take us. However, Geneva is beautiful and worth visiting!

Hello,
I am sorry to hear that your tour did not go as you expected. From your review, it seems as if perhaps you would have preferred a professionally guided tour rather than a Lokafy tour. In all of our information, we outline that we provide unscripted walking tours through a city with a local - just as you would see a city if you had a friend showing you around. Lokafy allows travelers to connect with locals, and learn about the city from their perspective; things like what it's like to live there, advice on their favorite restaurants, and also connecting on a personal level.
As they are not professional tour guides, we do not require Lokafyers to have a detailed knowledge of the city’s history. We hope that the conversations you had with your Lokafyers helped you connect with them on a personal level.
Regards,
Lokafy Team

Hi there. We will be visiting Geneva soon and would like to do a walking tour. We would like to see the following sites;
Jet d'Eau
United Nations
Reformation Wall
St Pierre Cathedral
Musée d'Art et d'Histoire
Grand Théâtre de Genève
Lake Geneva
Broken chair sculpture
Would this be possible? If so, how much would the tour cost and what would the duration be?
Kind regards,
James
