Such a great tour. Pick up was easy. Roger, our tour guide was very informative. When we had free time, he gave suggestions as to what we could do. We had beautiful views from the boat ride. The castle was amazing. It was cool to see The Queen Experience and places where they recorded. Then onto Charlie Chaplins estate. It sounds jammed packed but it was a very relaxed day. We would definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Janet! We are delighted to hear that you had such a great day and that Roger helped make your experience enjoyable and informative. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. Thank you for your recommendation. We truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you on another adventure with us in the future!
<p>Unparalleled service to overcome unanticipated route closure our guide Maria went above/beyond ordinary service the tour is a great day on the Swiss Riviera...plenty of time to see how the top 1 lived 50 yrs ago Charlie Chaplin...and today, in Montreaux. The castle @ Chillon matches youthful dreams of what a mideival fortress was all about. The relaxing lake cruise back to Vevey caps off a memorable day in the Swiss lake region.</p>
<p>Wonderful trip. The Chaplin Museum was amazing, and the castle was breathtaking. My only complaint was that the trip was long and exhausting. By the time we got to Montreux, we only had 45 minutes there and we were so tired!</p>
<p>This was a great tour to do. One thing I will say is be mindful of the seats as you are joining the tour half way and people can be very possessive about their seats in the coach bus.</p> <p>The guide was very nice and helpful, made the whole process go well and smoothly. You do have to ensure you are back at the bus at the times they state otherwise you risk being left behind.</p>
<p>Nice tour, though would have liked an extra 30 mins or so at the Chillon Castle, felt too rushed there</p>
<p>Fantastic guide and splendid outing. Got to see several towns that we had not been able to visit on our own. Highly recommend,well done!</p>
