Great tour!

Published on Oct, 2024

Really enjoyed this tour. Easy pick up at our hotel. Nice comfortable scenic ride. Giger museum & bar is fantastic! Our driver, Gabor, was awesome. The castle and chocolate factory were nice, but the Giger museum was what I went for. Good amount of time spent at each spot.

Day trip to Gruyeres

Published on Oct, 2024

We recently returned from a 12 day trip to Switzerland, most of which was on an excellent Insight Vacations tour. Prior to joining group we had a wonderful day trip with Gabor from Geneva to Gruyeres. He picked the 3 of us up at our hotel and we traveled with another couple along the shore of Lake Geneva before heading to Gruyeres. He provided excellent commentary about all of the sights. He dropped the other couple at the cheese factory and we continued to the beautiful village. Gabor walked with us to the HR Giger museum and bought our entry tickets. He left us to explore the museum and castle and then we joined him and the other couple for lunch. Later we stopped at the Callier chocolate factory for a tour. We could have done most of this by train but it would have been more time consuming and we would have missed Gabor's excellent commentary. If we ever return to Geneva, I will try to book another tour with Gabor.

Great tour!

This a really good tour! Our driver, Gabor, was awesome. Picked us up right outside our hotel, nice scenic ride to Guyrères. It was a dream come true visiting the Giger museum bar. Exceeded expectations! Good amount of time spent at Giger museum & bar, and the Château. The town itself is very picturesque. We had some of the best fondue at Le Saint Georges restaurant.
