Freddie Mercury Tour - This is a must do for any Queen fan, it is fantastic, full of interesting facts about the music scene in Montreux, our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable about all things Freddie, all flat walking and very easy, it takes you into places that the general public cannot go, I recommend the full extended tour, absolutely worth doing and all in the beautiful surroundings of the Lake, worth every penny. Awesome, thank you for a fab experience, sadly don't remember the name of our friendly tour guide.

You must have been there for a while! - We had a holiday of a few days in Montreux because of Queen fans. Therefore also visited many things and locations of Queen and Freddie’s footsteps. Of course I walked past the statue daily and sat in the sun and sunset. Nice location.

Fantastic experience - An essential visit for fans of the greatest of all time. No, it's not Fary, it's Sir. Freddie Mercury. If you want to die of hypothermia, you can always take a dip in the majestic Lake Geneva. If its glacial waters don't kill you, the price of the coffee you drink to warm up will. Beautiful exit.

A moving and memorable experience - This is such a brilliant and moving tour. We completed the extended version (2.5 hours) and learnt so much from this experience. Our guide, Lucien, was very knowledgeable and has a true passion for Queen which shone throughout the tour. We loved hearing the stories about Queen's time in Montreux, from creating their iconic albums at Mountain Studios to Freddie's time in this wonderful and peaceful town. The tour praised not only the bands talent but Freddie's bravery and strength to continue creating music right until the very end. It was truly a memorable experience and I would definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Montreux.

A Kind of Magic - This is a full two and a half hour tour with audio and earphones. Be prepared to walk and stand and go up and down steps. We didn't sit once. You do not go through the Studio since that is free and you can go through at anytime at your own pace. The tour guide will advise you where to go and you listen to Freddie Mercury's assistant Peter Freestone on the audio telling stories and when you are moving from one place to another a Queen song plays. You learn about the woman who built the Freddie Mercury statue as well as a lot of information about the Montreux Studio. If you are staying at a Montreux Hotel you will get half off with your Riviera Pass. I won't tell you any stories except to say that I have been a Queen fan for many decades and I still learned some new things! This is well worth it and any fan will love it!

Good overall value for money. - The whole tour was memorable. The only change I would suggest would be to include the studio tour rather than just point it out and make people return to the casino to see it.
