Customer Reviews
Every town and city was great. The history was fabulous. It was a great experience.
Great itinerary! However, I would have rather had a longer boat ride on Lake Geneva and/or more free time in Montreux. The Chaplin tour and short boat ride was disappointing. The Swiss dinner in Zermatt was lower quality and overpriced compared to other dinners on the tour. Enjoyed the rest of the tour. was a superb tour director. Very knowledgeable, managed the schedule in consideration of weather and crowd control.
