Breathtakingly Beautiful & Super Fun Trip! - Our guide Roger and bus driver Sam were fantastic! Roger shared historical knowledge and fun facts from Geneva throughout the entire trip! He kept everyone engaged and entertained - he was wonderful!!
The scenery from the bus ride was breathtaking!! From Lac Lemon with snow capped Swiss Alps in the background to beautiful grape vineyards; pasturelands up to the Callie’s Chocolate factory tour - fabulous! Next to Gruyère for cheese making tour and excellent fondue lunch!! Then onto the Castle Gruyère for the most amazing views, the cutest town and nice shoppes! Then, a fabulous train ride through the alps back down to Montreux - the Swiss Rivera on Lac Lemon! THANK YOU Roger for an amazing day!!

Amazing - The weather wasn’t cooperating but the tour was perfect. We were able to get a bit of everything and Babis was so fun! The best part was the small town of Gruyere. There were a number of shops and cafes. The train was slow so you could take it all in. What an amazing day.

Chocolate and Cheese - A very nice tour including all of the chocolate you could possibly eat, cheese tasting and a fondue lunch. The mountain train was a really cool experience, our driver Bobbie’s was really funny.

Book it, you won't be disappointed. - Thank you to Normunds, our driver, who made sure we were given clear instructions throughout the day and who shared lots of interesting facts during our journey.
The trip is well designed and I came away from it feeling like I'd had seen a lot. Gruyère was certainly a huge highlight, what a beautiful village!
Thank you for a brilliant day.

Totally worth your money and time! - This was an amazing tour. Roger was an awesome guide, with so much energy and knowledge! The museum tour of the chocolate factory was a lot of fun as were the chocolate samples. Make sure you choose the ticket option that includes fondu and train.
The free time in Gruyere suggested several museums including a church, something related to Buddha, and an HR Geiger museum, which was absolutely amazing if you know anything about his work and the Alien film franchise!
I was expecting an old fashioned train but it was a normal, contemporary one, unfortunately. But at this point in the trip, everyone was a little beat, so it was nice to just chill out and see the scenery. If you're sitting on the fence, do it! It's worth the investment.

So fun. Your guide made it even better - Our tour guide Roger made the whole experience all the more fun. We had two kids 11 and 8 yrs old and he made the drive in the coach so fun. The entire experience is well worth it.
