Lugano: Private Walking Tour with Monte Brè and Gandria｜Switzerland

Begin your tour with a walking tour around Lugano. Discover the history of Ticino and learn why the Italian people who originally lived here decided to join mostly German-speaking Switzerland instead of Italy. See the main tourist and nature attractions, and learn about the most famous noble family of Ticino who used to live in a villa inside the most beautiful park in Switzerland. Discover the most famous fresco in all of Switzerland.

Then, take a funicular to Monte Brè, often considered one of Switzerland's sunniest mountains. From Monte Brè's summit, you'll be rewarded with spectacular views over Lake Lugano, the surrounding mountains, and, on clear days, the distant Alps. The picturesque village of Brè, with its traditional stone houses, artistic atmosphere, and narrow lanes, offers an ideal place to pause and soak in the peaceful surroundings.

Finally, visit the fascinating Gandria, which used to be a fishing village in the past and today is an authentic village where you will find breathtaking views of Lake Lugano. Explore the village's ceramic stores, where you can even create a souvenir with your own hands to bring back home.
