unsatisfactory service

Service at a discount for 1 year that mocks users. Late last minute cancellations to the detriment of users. Misallocated schedules not commensurate with needs. Race cancellations are increasing much more regularly compared to previous years. It is legitimate to ask whether this is not voluntary to save on shopping. With such a subscription price the customer is entitled to expect better, at least as well as in the past.

Bonjour, Nous comprenons parfaitement votre déception à la suite du changement d’horaire et des récentes annulations. La modification de l’horaire découle directement de décisions prises par les autorités françaises et le canton de Vaud, qui ont réduit de plus de 40 % leur participation financière. La responsabilité de cette situation n’incombe pas à la CGN, mais bien aux commanditaires de l’offre. En ce qui concerne les annulations, soyez assuré que nous ne prenons jamais à la légère la décision de supprimer des courses. Chaque situation fait l’objet d’une évaluation basée sur les données météorologiques et la décision finale d’assurer ou non une traversée appartient au Capitaine, qui est légalement responsable du bateau, de ses passagers et de son équipage. En tant que transport public, nous ne pouvons pas prendre un quelconque risque au niveau de sécurité. Notre objectif n’est en aucun cas de procéder à des suppressions “systématiques”, mais bien de prévenir tout risque d’incident. Nous vous remercions de votre compréhension et restons à votre disposition pour tout complément d’information. La CGN

Fantastic boat trip

We took the trip from Lausanne to Évian-les-Bains. We had a fantastic boat trip over Lake Geneva. It became an unforgettable trip to beautiful Évian in the summer heat. A nice day trip, and take this trip again.

A good time on Lake Geneva

Very pleasant time, the staff is friendly and accommodating. We arrived two hours before the meeting, they picked us up without problem.

Very welcoming staff. Nevertheless the very rude Security Service no hello or goodbye. Concerns about ego probably ..

Latest boat, a horror

I've been traveling with the CGN for years and I have no reproach to do, if I removed a star it's for one thing: their new boat!... It's excruciatingly ugly and inhospitable. It looks like a soulless blockhouse, there are almost no exteriors, it is almost worrying, like a warship. It's a shame, I hope I hardly ever have it to make the crossing.

Great Tour

The guide for the tour was excellent. The circuit for the tour was also well designed to cover the key highlights of St Malo.

Visit the cities near Lausanne by boat - this should be the name of the tour - there are no guides or directions

Beautiful scenery- stay in second class- modern boat with restaurant (so with reservations)-bar and places to sunbath - There is no need to stay in first class because the view and accommodation do not change - only a staircase Suitable baths and views without guides or directions - transportation to different cities and villages -

This is indeed a public transport line. Therefore no guide or indication is available. Only drinks are available onboard.

Leisurely day out

We took a day trip from Lausanne to Evian and back. It was free with our Swiss Travel pass. There are multiple sailings per day. We left at 11 am, had a wander round the town, a delicious lunch and a ride in the funiculaire and were in plenty of time to catch the 2:45 return sailing. A very laidback trip on a nice day.

Disappointment and lack of seriousness

Despite 1st class tickets, there is no control except when the controller passes by. Area completely occupied by 2nd class tickets. Morality pay less and enjoy the 1 and without worries. In addition, twice we reserved a table for 2 and each time we had our place stolen. Morality don't reserve anything and sit down, you will have priority. Regrettable and unnecessary to pay more for calm and comfort. In this regard, first class is more than modest regarding seats. Disappointing

No food or drink?!?! We are in Switzerland where...!?!

Very friendly, welcoming staff etc. On the other hand, the fact that the company only focuses on money is felt enormously, many passengers have a price that borders on prestige ones and that there are no catering or drinks on board is totally deplorable. Fortunately the team on board had nothing to do with it and they were friendly. Bad management :(
