Last return boat was at... - Last return boat was at 4:30-5 pm, so traveling on the 4:05pm boat meant we had to take a bus back to town instead of being able to use the return part of our ticket if we wanted to have time to explore the castle. Otherwise enjoyed the short boat trip, but the bus would have been more affordable and quicker with more convenient return options.

Disappointing - Basically it goes around and picks up people or let them off at different points. No commentary or really nothing to be wowed by.

Not as advertised - Packed with no place to sit. Advertised that you could get off at castle but you had to be back on the boat in 30 minutes. Next boat in 2 hours did not stop in Montreux. Not as advertised. Waste of money. Could have taken the ferry for free.

"Riviera Cruise" - Trip not described well at all. A 2 hour ride around Lake Geneva with no narration. It makes it sound like it takes you specifically to Chillon, which actually is a brief stop. Charged $48 per person, which you can get for $38 at the window. Bad Trip Advisor suggestion.....

We need a refund - We couldn’t get this trip and we need a refund The cruise company canceled all the trips without prior notice. They said There are big logs on the lake because of a storm and it is not safe to travel. We didn’t get any warning from viator either. We ask for a refund.
