Great tour of Gruyeres - Normunds was an excellent guide, informative and funny. Made some extra stops for sunset pictures and wine shopping. The chocolate and wine factories were great. Wish we had more time in Gruyeres to see the castle and walk around, all our time was taken up by lunch... but the tour was well organized and a good size, maybe 12 people in a small van. Thanks!

Wonderful experience! - I wanted to provide you feedback regarding the tour today. Everything was excellent. Normounds was knowledgeable and friendly. The schedule was clearly communicated and ran on time. All three activities were entertaining and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and book a future trip with Viator. Thank you!

Make it a touch longer and it would be perfect - Great trip, maybe a little more time would have been better as some people on my tour said they felt they had to explore Gruyeres and the castle in a rush after lunch, and personally i felt i had to choose myself, skipping the castle but otherwise thoroughly enjoyable and the driver Babis? was funny and knowledgeable

Lots of fun, we had a great time! - We had the best time on this tour! Dine was our guide, and he was so happy and helpful and lovely! Make sure you do the Gold option with the fondue lunch and train though, otherwise you get stuck on the bus for a longer time. Was so worth it!

Gruyeres cheese and mountain view - We had a great time. It was a small group and Din our tour guide/driver kept us informed and entertained. We got to sample the Gruyeres cheese that is made there along with a very delicious fondue. So much to see and the weather was perfect, not too hot. I would recommend this trip to everyone.

Worth the money - Roger, our tour guide, was wonderful! He informed us all of the 2.5 hour journey to the first site and between each of the three stops. Each stop had wonderful tours and were fascinating. Of course the views were something to behold. Roger made sure we all had what we needed. He really was great at his job.
