We recently took part in a Chur sightseeing tour and it was fantastic. The guide was exceptionally well-informed, providing insights into the city’s history that you couldn’t get from a guidebook. It's seldom that you find a tour that caters to all ages, but this one did, and it was such a joy to see everyone engaged.

My family and I attended a sightseeing tour in Chur and were thoroughly impressed with the breadth of knowledge the guide possessed. Not only did we see the major sights, but we also discovered hidden alleys and quaint shops that we would have missed on our own. The inclusion of local legends added a special touch to the experience.
