Great tour - Wonderful full-day tour with a small group that had us seeing many sites and with ample time to enjoy them and take photos. The driver and guide Roger/Ivar was great; he was friendly and informative, he made all the difference. Always pointing out locations on the road and sharing interesting information. I appreciate that he was always clear in his instructions and making sure the tour members didn't expire from the heat. I highly recommend this tour as it is perfect for those with a short stay in Geneva.

A very relaxing and enjoyable trip - This was a very relaxing trip because, once at a location, you are free to move around (our outstanding and caring driver and tour guide did recommend us what to do but it all depends on your own interest). We went to among other the museum of Charles Chaploin, Chateau de Chillon, a picnic at a very scenic location with miles of grape fields, the city of Mountroix and lots more (excuse my french).

The tour showed me everything I’d love to see - As a tourist, you would not be able to see so much in one day by yourself. The tour is totally worth it.

Beautiful tour around Lake Geneva with photo opportunities in famous Montreux. Comfortable bus with big windows. - Wonderful tour with great views of the lake. Rodger was our guide and provided wonderful insight into Switzerland as well as Chillon Castle, Chaplins World and Montreux that we visited. He also accompanied me to Queen Studio which I thoroughly enjoyed. Would highly recommend the tour.

Chateau de Chillon - Absolutely enjoyed my trip to Chateau. There is a lot to see and it took me over 3 hours to finish my tour. I would highly recommend to anyone who’s going to the area to stop by. Also, there is a shop which sells wine and some other goods produced locally. A lot of history in that place. Absolutely loved it.

Busy but informative day. - The overall day was packed with visiting different activities which was nice. Great to visit so much in one day. The castle was really nice and preserved. Tour guide could’ve been more knowledgeable and positive.

It's worth visiting this place, - Excellent beautiful location, where you can have boat ride, see old castle and walk way for waling by lake. We reached here by Rented car, where we had super scenic route. Great free Parking facility.

Good tour but horrid guide - The trip itself is solid. However, I really think the tour guide was not experienced. I understand you get what you paid for. But there is an opportunity here: 1) We waited extra 20/30 min every time due to the same guest running late. While I appreciate the gesture, as a result, we were late everywhere and all our stops felt rushed. I think having a guide who is firm and can indicate that we will depart and not wait longer than 5-10 minutes is critical on tours with multi-stops and very limited time at location. The guide was also communicating critical details of timing only to whoever was in front and near them . Very unprofessional. The trip is good overall but if you get a guide like we did - you will be constantly rushed to just wait in the bus while one person takes their time to later not be told anything and continue this behavior. Beware...
