Walking tour of Chur - Hans was very knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful tour of the lovely city of Chur. He gave us a historical perspective of the city, and while our tour was only 90 minutes he was able to give us a broad scope of the city.

Swiss charm unveiled - Our guide Martin made our Chur exploration an amazing experience. He impressed us with his vast knowledge of the city's history and architecture and took us to popular as well as lesser-known spots. We were grateful for his suggestions on local cuisine and beverages. It was a fantastic start to our trip!

Chur has some interesting history…and is a cute, quite sizable town. - We had a nice 90 minute walking tour & appreciated some interesting information about Chur & ties to the Romans. It would have been helpful in the tour description to allude to, other than it is the oldest town in Switzerland, the fact that 90% of the town burnt down in the 14th century, as my expectations of seeing earlier architecture would have been a bit different. However, there is a lot of history & stories, that can be brought out in stronger story lines than we were presented which could spark more intriguing narratives. At times, the town appeared to be right out of “Pillars of the Earth”, so that was really fascinating to me, especially how the cathedral was built & remodeled through history. As it was, we were taken to sites of interest, just could have used some more ‘zip’ in the narrative because there appears to be a lot of history & stories to build on.
