Louise and Jeremy, Mary-Rose and Grant / USA

These 18 days were an eye opener for all of us.
There are experiences in life that are almost indescribable. Thank you Kurt for giving us such a wonderfull time.
Thank you also for your tip and booking of the extra nights in that beautiful historical hotel before our flight back to the US. 

Gene and Rose / USA

It started in 2019 with an idea to ride in Switzerland, after a Google search I picked out several tours and sent an email asking for information, to my surprise a day or two later I get a phone call from Kurt / Twincruiser Tours.  
All I got was a brochure from the rest.

From that phone call till long after the trip was over the communication has been absolutely incredible!!!!!
We had planned to go in 2020 but covid killed that, then 2023 we got to live our dream, 4 years and the communication never stopped!

Besides communications some things that stood out to us was,

1. You are with the owner not hired hands and that makes a world of difference!
2. This is a custom tour, not a standard cookie cutter one size fits all. It was so unbelievable how hard Kurt worked to make the tour special to us!
3. I have not been around someone that pays attention to every detail, and I mean every detail! Kurt missed absolutely nothing!!!!
4. As a group (7 of us) we do a two-week trip somewhere every year. Our idea is to ride motorcycle and see the country, what Kurt, gave us was so much more than that! (Kurt loves His country) and it comes out in so many ways! We got history, (we never got a “I don’t know” if he didn’t know he went to great length to find out the right answer not some BS!)
5. Culture, the evening meals each day was a highlight! A time to slow down, take time to eat, time to reflect on our day, definitely much to talk about!
6. Each hotel was outstanding with superb rooms and great views.
7. It was not about how many miles we can ride just for bragging rights.

      Switzerland is so beautiful, and Kurt made sure we could enjoy it.      

As we planned the trip the cost was a big issue (why in the world is it so expensive)?  On our way home from the trip, the cost was not even mentioned. Yes, Switzerland is expensive but so worth it!

This was to be “a once in a lifetime” trip……but thinking about “twice in a lifetime” maybe????? 

Judy and John from PA / USA:

Private tailored tour in France, Southern Germany and mostly Switzerland.
Two weeks with “Kurt’s no cookie cutter approach”.

Good morning Kurt, I’m finally taking some time to sit and reflect on the reality that we really were in Switzerland, and all that we saw, tasted, and learned while getting to know you. Our time was maximize as well as customized to include many of the special  places that were on our wish list! Two of those places will be permanently etched in our minds, the visit to “the Hiding Place”, and the visit to the concentration camp often come to the forefront as we reflect on how we are blessed and the cost others paid for what we enjoy! Thank you for not giving us a cookie cutter approach to seeing your beautiful country and the hundreds of years of history. Your wealth is not only in the amount of gold Switzerland owns but is rather in the people who live there! The whipped cream on top of it all was getting to know you and hearing how your journey through life is making a difference in others, we’re looking forward to seeing you sometime in the future! THANK YOU WILL NEVER COVER OUR GRATITUDE, BUT IT WILL HAVE TO DO FOR NOW!! 

Sharon and Calvin from Pennsylvania / USA:

Swiss private tour – 14 days – “Kurt’s knowledge of regions was very beneficial, and his humor makes it fun!”

Kurt from Twincruiser Tours made sure our bike trip was very well planned out to make sure each person in our group got to experience a special site of interest. He had rented very dependable bikes for us to ride and feel safe. Rode over many passes in the Switzerland Alpes, plus had time to do some site seeing. We stayed in very nice Hotels and had great meals.
I would rate Twincruiser Tours at a 5 stars plus. Kurt is an excellent tour guide with knowledge of the history and region all around Switzerland.

Aleksander and Joanna from Poland:

Trip of a lifetime! Personalized Swiss Grand Tour, 12 days, 1300 km.

Best motorcycle holidays ever. Kurt is an amazing planner, careful to every detail and takes into considerations such factors as our riding abilities and real time needed to cover a distance. We enjoyed very good contact with Kurt during the planning phase and he was very patient in tailor making the trip to our wishes, taking into consideration his vast knowledge. Eventually, the route planned by Kurt was very interesting to follow and full of pleasant surprises. All the hotels have exceeded our expectations. Staying in 3-star hotels felt like staying in 4-star hotels. Whereas 4-star hotels felt like 5-stars! He even managed to arrange rooms with spectacular views in several hotels without any surcharge, which otherwise would have been charged.

During our trip Kurt was following the weather and helped us with planning the timing of the trip, so as to avoid rain or road congestions. Moreover, he suggested a multi-variant itinerary for some sections of the journey, so that we could choose an option that fit our interests and riding abilities best. Kurt has saved a lot of money on trains, cable cars and public transport for us. Not to mention that the train tickets were already waiting for us at the train station after we landed in Zurich, which was very convenient.

I had a technical problem with my motorcycle and Kurt was very instrumental in arranging technical assistance on route. Due to him, we could safely continue and complete the journey.

When in Bern, Kurt showed us around and we had a very interesting guided tour with him.

We have become friends. Kurt and Willy were very kind to invite us to their home and we had a wonderful dinner together and had really great time. Kurt gave us some very valuable gifts – I carry one of those with me at all times.

I do recommend Kurt as a highly efficient and professional travel partner.

We are going to revisit Switzerland to see other parts of this magnificent country and culture. It goes without saying that I have already asked Kurt to plan yet another trip of a lifetime!

Martine and John from Chicago – USA:

To keep it short and simple: We are 62 and 59 years of age and that was our best bike holiday ever. Thank you very much Kurt for showing us your wonderful country. Your knowledge is out of this world and your humour is contagious, See you again for more!

Gary, James, Michael and Julie from Minnesota – USA:

We had an extremely remarkable tour with Twincruiser Tours. Everything was spectacular and Kurt did his best to make our journey memorable.
We booked a three-week tour, and we always believed in what Confucius said: The way is the goal.
Oh boy, did we wake up and changed our mind!
During September, we got a surprise: non-stop rain and snow for five days.
This was the time that we appreciated and were so happy to be in a fancy luxury hotel to dry our cloth and gear and to sit in front of a fireplace.
Bad weather can affect people’s moods and is a holiday killer.
We still enjoyed our tour, as “the versatile Kurt” organized a car, and we finished the motorcycle tour with Kurt as our driver and tour guide.  
Now we have a reason to come back for more, but we will be earlier in the year if we come for the motorcycle tour.
And who knows, we might use Kurt again for a tour in a van, as we are getting too old for motorcycles! Thank you, Kurt, for making the trip so interesting!

Maggie and Steve from Boston – USA:

My wife and I went on a private motorcycle (BMW R1200 RT) tour that Kurt organized just for us. At the beginning I have to say, that Kurt really got me “wondering”, to name it politely, about all his questions and information he requested from us. What the hell does it got to do with a motorcycle tour?

After the tour, I must admit (and apologize to Kurt) that this was without doubt the best time I ever had on a bike holiday. I traveled in many places all over the world but what Kurt did for us did beat everything I have seen until now. Our motorcycle holiday was planned in detail, as if we would have it done ourselves, except that here, we did not do a single thing. What surprised us the most, was Kurt ability to adapt and change his plans daily to suit, rather please us and make us wonder! This trip really enlightened my wife and myself personally in many ways and we would have never been able to do and experience the same in such a short time (16 days).

I thought I could ride… I had to learn to ride over passes and Kurt was an outstanding and safe road captain.

The accommodations were tremendous, only the best and the meals (not just food) were great. We learned so much about good and healthy meals! The various surprises along the way were much fun, and we laughed a lot. We even learned to play or shall we say blow, the Alphorn. Thank you very much, Kurt, one day bikers will understand, please, do not give up in these somewhat harder times. We will inform all our friends and come back for more.

Abid and Mark from Peterborough – UK:

Probably the most enjoyable time we’ve ever had on our motorcycles riding the most fantastic roads with excellent scenery with the best tour guide in Switzerland. Kurt is a genuine guy, very helpful and knowledgeable; he helped us prepare our itinerary for the complete journey from Peterborough to Burgdorf. Kurt made every ride in Switzerland very interesting, getting off our bikes and on foot at viewpoints to take it all in, pointing out landmarks and places of interest along the route, always stopping every so often, asking for feedback to make sure we were comfortable and taking in the experience. He also made sure we were always aware of speed cameras and roads where extra caution was required… Kurt has a very good sense of humour too, stories to tell about previous experiences and always willing to listen to the customer. He was also able to find us an excellent farmhouse in Burgdorf for our week’s stay, overall an excellent trip worth every cent with Twincruiser Tours, which we would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of riding in Switzerland.

Melanie and Jack from Vancouver – Canada:

Dear Kurt, we cannot thank you enough for your very honest help, understanding, personal care, attention, knowledge, and your Swiss efficiency. We thought we could get it cheaper by booking it «our way» but we had to learn the hard way. We made a huge mistake and thanks to you, Kurt who helped us out, who went miles out of your way and organized us a last-minute private tour, we did enjoy a fantastic motorcycle holiday.

We made three «lifetime experiences»; first, we did not compare the various tour prices rightly and thoroughly; then we underestimated the work behind a bike tour in an unknown country and the very best for last; we had a complete stress-free experience in the Swiss and French Alps with Kurt.

At the end, Kurt from Twincruiser Tours made us save money.
Thanks so much for the photo-book; we really did not expect that after all you did for us! We will come again.

Agnes and Mike with family from South Africa:

Just a note to say Thank You for everything thing you did to make our holiday a wonderful experience for us. The hotels were super and in great locations. The fact that we were able to walk to the sights in both Paris, Montreux and Bern, allowed us to really experience the cities.

Thank you both for your time on Monday. We really appreciated your effort to take us to Gruyères, Gstaad and Interlaken. Although our ex-neighbours had told us we must see Interlaken, we would never have taken the route you showed us and would more than likely have missed Gruyères and Gstaad, which were much nicer than Interlaken. We all loved the Kornhaus, and that’s also something we would never have found, if not for you.

Kurt, you deserve a medal for shopping with us on Tuesday! I’m the world’s worst at shopping because I take a long time to make up my mind, which can be very frustrating for someone like our daughter, who does not have a lot of patience! You read her well. We appreciate the effort you both made to make us welcome in your home and have raclette for us and a schnitzel for our son. Willy, I have to agree with you and I prefer the Dutch way to the Swiss way!

Kurt, we can never you repay you for your time on Wednesday. As you drove, Mike was able to relax and really enjoy the drive without the stress of driving on the wrong side of the road and following the directions to Lucerne and later to Zurich. Thanks for all the photos, which I downloaded this morning.

Ed from Miami – USA:

In 2015, I developed a strong desire to do something out of my comfort zone… it was to motorcycle through the Alps and Europe for three weeks. As an American who only speaks one language, who has never motor-cycled through the mountains or ridden more than a few hours at a time, riding by myself or with others that are inexperienced in the area would have been a disaster. Twincruiser was my savior.  Everything was taken care of, language was not an issue, getting lost was not a concern, and we went to the right places. Kurt is an absolute veteran when it comes to riding throughout Europe, especially the Alps. Each day’s route was meticulously planned in advance and rechecked and adjusted the night before, and Kurt used his weather apps during the ride to change course and avoid rain. My mandate going into this trip was to see as much natural, spectacular beauty as possible, and that mission was accomplished. Kurt is a perfectionist who takes pride in what he does and truly loves every moment of it. His knowledge of the areas and customs runs deep, and it’s his passion to share his life’s experience with his clients. In short, it was everything I wished for without the potential drama.

Yaron Berger from Israel:

As for someone who doesn’t have a motorcycle drivers license, and who don’t own a bike yet. I decided to have my first motorcycle tour in Switzerland.

My tour guide was Kurt. An excellent driver & a wonderful tour guide.
The journey began from Bern, heading to Thun Lake. After taking a few pictures of the amazing panoramic view, we headed towards Grindelwald. A beautiful village on the Swiss alps, containing stunning panoramic views of the mountains. The next stop was Interlaken, amazing streets with many shops, restaurants and cafes, the famous Victoria Jungfrau Hotel, and the casino house. From there we continued our journey to the last stop Aare-Schlucht. Walking along the river and the great gorge. Beautiful place, wonderful experience, and stunning view through the trail.

Even though it was only for one day, the riding experience with Kurt, was the best one I’ve ever had in my life, I will never forget this day. Looking forward to do it again. I’ll be very happy to ride with him in Switzerland one more time, and in other countries as well.Thanks for everything.

Daniela from London – UK:

«And remember… you owe me a report!» Those were Kurt’s words with which we said good-bye last Saturday on our final stop just before Zurich. It is my pleasure giving you here now this report.

We had just ridden over one week doing Grimsel, Furka, Andermatt, Samedan, even Ried, I thought I had already seen it all. Had I not passed there many times before?

But Kurt had shown me different parts, different views which I had previously passed by without noticing them. The small, picturesque village of «Guarda»” in the Engadin Valley came as a huge surprise to me. It is the place of birth of the «Schellenursli» and an absolute «must». By the way, thank you for the lovely book.

To see things anew, from a different point of view, I think this is what Kurt is really very good at.

He is not out there just to ride, doing kilometers but to see, to notice and to experience, to communicate with people. Always on the lookout for new sights and new routes, hidden corners and places which he can then incorporate into his tours. It is a huge pleasure for him to see the delight in one’s face when he has succeeded in that.
It was an easy and relaxed time we spent, hard to believe we had just met. It just worked out really well.
At all times did I feel safe and well taken care of. So very important when on the road with the bike.
It was my first tour with Kurt and certainly not my last!

Sandra and Marc from Dubai:

Hello again,
I’ve written a review on the link you sent me but so far can’t see anything on it. Maybe it will take some time for it to show up. Anyway, this is what I’ve written…

We had a private tour with Twincruiser Tours and we had such a wonderful experience! Kurt had planned everything according to what we liked to see and do, so we enjoyed every moment of it! Every little detail from the type of bike we wanted to what we like to eat was catered for. And if we wanted a change from the schedule, that was OK too. This is the type of bike tour we were looking for. No restrictions and riding in a leisurely pace so that we can stop where ever we want to take in all the beautiful sights of Switzerland, which is what a holiday should be. The bike tour was the highlight of our Switzerland holiday and we were sad when it had to end. We plan to go back and will definitely go with Kurt from Twincruiser Tours again. Thank you, Kurt, for the unforgettable places you took us. It was all incredible! I hope you like it.

Annette Bosman and family:

Dear Kurt
I would like to thank you and your team for everything you have done in order to make our holiday in Italy and Switzerland unforgettable!
We appreciate it. The hotels were all lovely, but we would like to mention that it might always be wise to inquire about strong hair dryers when booking a hotel in Italy.
Breakfasts at all hotels were superb! As was the locations of all booked hotels.
Thanks again! We will most definitely make use of your services again.

Thinus Potgieter, KZN, South Africa:

Just a quick word of appreciation for the good service while we were in Switzerland and Italy. You helped us a lot with renting a car, restaurants to eat and booking of hotels. The accommodation was wonderful and we enjoyed all the lovely places where you booked us to stay!

We could not fault anything and like to make use of you again. What we really liked, is your professionalism and quick service.
We will definitely recommend you to all our friends in South Africa.
