Off the beaten path - We like seeing hidden gems when on vacation and this was definitely one. We loved getting to hike on some lesser traveled pass and get up close and personal to the roaming cows. Having Mark do a bbq in one of the outposts was a wonderful and unique experience. Taking the ferry back was an unexpected bonus that allowed the trip to really show all aspects of the area.

Great hiking and experience - Fantastic experience! Our guide Ezra is a native of Lucerne and he went above and beyond for us with our hike and explanation of the culture and history. Request Ezra for sure

Awesome property, WONDERFUL staff and great location - My son and I had the most amazing time on this tour. We actually spent the night at the farm. Our guide, Andrea was the best and we hope to remain in contact with him. I can't express the level of care and compassion he had for my son and I. Also his knowledge of Mount Rigi and the culture was an added benefit. He BBQ a lunch of us over a campfire and we chatted about our lives. It was the highlight of pir two week tour of the area. I would definitely recommend this tour! The overnight at the farm was awesome too. Our host Tony was very accommodating and the fondu dinner he prepared was the best ever! Our room was comfortable and very clean. The morning we awoke to a beautiful breakfast with many choices ranging from fresh croissants, fresh fruit, eggs, cheeses and local meats. I want to go back just writing this review. This was well planned and very professional from start to finish. Great job to Rene and your team. We will be back!!

The grandeur and beauty of Switzerland. - Our guide David was fun and knowledgeable...We thoroughly enjoyed our guided hike, from start to finish. The scenery was spectacular and the hike was just our pace..David asked our preferences and was very accommodating. We couldn't have asked for a better excursion. He prepared a lovely snack over the fire pit among the beautiful Swiss landscape and the sounds of dairy cow bells in the distance.

Great Hike - Excellent and accommodating outfit with knowledgeable guides. Great way to spend a day from hiking to taking the cog train, gondola and boat.

Our trip to Lucerne and area was made extra special by two guides Andrea and Glenn, from ECHO Rails & Trails Adventures - We had scheduled four tours with ECHO Rails & Trails Adventures company in Lucerne and surrounding areas. Not only everything was perfectly organized and managed by Andrea Caspani, Director of Operation, but we felt, in every instance, that our guides (we had two guides: Andrea and Glenn) truly cared about us. We were presently surprised by the diversity of our tours: from panorama and country walk to real alpine hiking (Mt. Rigi and Heart of Alpine hike). These four tours with ECHO Rails & Trails will definitely become eye-opening, adventurous and stanning journey – something we will remember for long time! We definitely will be back! Thank you both Andrea and Glenn, we were very happy with you! Respectfully, Tatiana Smirnova and Mikhail Sher, From Minnesota, USA

Nice tour, tricky hike, overpriced but great guide. - Fun tour, four stars only because in my opinion, the tour is way overpriced. Livia was a great guide (loved the story about Wilhelm Tell) the visit to the cheese factory and barbecue was OK, the owner was a little rude because we didn't speak German, also, I do understand it is a farm, but they were pumping and spreading the cow menure right next to the restaurant. Livia did a great job with lunch and the BBQ. I would recommend but I'd cut the price by at least 30%.
