Highlights

The tours in our catalog are fun, interactive, and adaptable. You will receive the standard historical data but also the quirky anecdotes that make a town a home.
Your guide: Native of the French-speaking part of Switzerland, I have been guiding Swiss-curious groups since 2020. I enjoy sharing my joy at hearing new historical anecdotes about places and their people. I can take visitors with me on those journeys in English, French or German.
English has become my natural language, after spending a few years in London, training as a theater technician and working in a cinema. I have also extensively traveled the USA.

Itinerary

  • Cathedrale de Lausanne

    25 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Brief visit of the interior of the Cathedral, walking around the déambulatoire, admiring the stain glass windows, the gothic architecture, and the magnificent organ designed by Giugiaro
  • Palais de Rumine

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Crossing the Place de la Riponne, a brief explanation of the role of the building and historical events in it + today's use. Construction of the building began in September 1898 according to plans by Lyon architect Gaspard André.
  • Tour de l'Ale

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Not Included
    A brief walk around the tower with a historical context explanation. Built-in 1340, its primary role was to defend the Faubourg de l'Ale, a district outside the walls that then extended in front of the Porte de Saint-Laurent.
  • Chauderon Bridge

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    crossing the Chauderon Bridge. Built between 1904 and 1905, is made up of two parallel bridges
  • Casino de Montbenon

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Visit the Montbenon Casino and its gardens. Built in 1908, the Casino de Montbenon enjoys a unique location in Lausanne. Contrary to what its name suggests, the “Casino” has never housed a games room.
  • Rue du Grand-Pont

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    View of the Grand Pont with historical explanations. Part of the designs by engineer Pichard to avoid the traffic jams in the old town, the Grand Pont is the first in several colossal urban projects. Work began in 1839 and was finished, with much pomp, in 1844 due to safety concerns
  • Lausanne

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    visit the train station and up on the platforms. Inaugurated in 1856, the train station changed the urban landscape of Lausanne drastically. The town started to grow South. The building as it is today dates to 1916.
