Dear friends,
welcome to my world of travel.
Travel is my life. Over some 70 years, I have visited every continent and more than 120 countries. In Lucerne, I ran my own travel agency, Topas Reisen AG.
From 2000 to 2014, I accompanied thousands of Swiss guests on over 200 cruises as a tour leader and cruise director. Since 2015, I no longer organise or lead tours. My photographs and memories remain – and I am delighted to share them with you.
Yours, Willi Wyss
On rivers and oceans.
