Explore Verzasca Valley River & Waterfall with Ascona - Private Guided Tour from Lugano
On this private guided tour you’ll depart from Via Nassa in downtown Lugano and travel for about one hour to the stunning Verzasca Valley, where the river’s vibrant color has earned it the nickname “the Seychelles of Switzerland.” Along the way you’ll pass charming Swiss villages nestled beside the Verzasca river, stop at the historic Verzasca old bridge and walk down to the riverside, then continue to the end of the valley to a little Swiss town to admire a dramatic waterfall. This private experience is reserved for your group only-whether you’re traveling solo or with companions-and the price remains the same regardless of whether it’s just you or up to four people, making it an easy add-on to your Lugano plans on Varoom.
