    A memorable trip from Geneva to Gruyere. I was very happy with the quality of the bus train and stops that we made. Loved visiting the castle and tasting the cheese.

    The tour was wonderful, beautiful views of mountains and towns. The tours were informative and moved at a good pace, and there was a nice amount of free time. The tour guide was excellent, interesting and well versed in history and culture.

    An amazing experience! We got all of the highlights of Switzerland in one day, and especially loved the chocolate museum. Note that this is the “upgraded” version which includes a fondue lunch at the cheese museum, and the train ride. In hindsight, we may have rather done the “downgraded” version to have our own lunch in Gruyeres and more time in Montreaux.

    Great day trip - a little long but you get to see a few different areas of Switzerland which is great. Our guide Babis was the perfect mix of knowledge and humor!

    Cheese, chocolate and a panoramic train ride were all memorable parts of the experience-when selecting seats on the train,I suggest sitting on the opposite side of the doors that you board the train for unobstructed views of the lake and mountainous meadows. The tour takes the traveler out of Geneva and into the breathtaking countryside of Switzerland. After the cheese tasting experience, you’ll get the chance to stroll through the small but indescribably beautiful village of Gruyères. Leave time to walk to the castle and enjoy the views! The terminus of the train will be in the gorgeous lake town of Montreux. Once there, be sure to walk all the way down to the water because it’s the “Swiss Riviera” and the palm trees prove it!

    This is totally worth the price. A great itinerary and our guide (nicknamed Roger) was fun, punctual, involved, and an overall great person to have leading the group.

    Was a lovely tour, enjoyed the picturesque countryside from the road and the train (it’s really beautiful!), as well as the informative tours at Cailler and Gruyères. Delicious chocolate and cheese tasting - appreciated the bit of cultural immersion - fondue and Swiss wine (which is only available in Switzerland and is pretty good!). Medieval village and Chateau Gruyères were a delight. Guide was great (knowledgeable and friendly) and bus comfortable. A fine way to spend a day!

    Roger was a great guide. Had everything organized perfectly, on time and the source of great stories. Chocolate and cheese tours were interesting, cheese lunch was great (you don’t need to bring your own lunch!) and the castle and train ride were the highlights. Only minor issue was other passengers sat in the keytours reserved seats in train (there was a sign!) and conductor let them if they paid the additional feel of 5ch per person. Highly recommend the tour.
