Great trip! Mike was super knowledgeable and friendly.

What a wonderful tour! Our guide, Mike, was punctual, drove us around in a nice little van, and was very informative of the town (both Bern, Gruyères, and anything along the way). My mom and I were solo since the other four passengers cancelled. We thoroughly enjoyed the day in Gruyères - it was all well worth it. The cheese and chocolate is obvious (yum!), and the little village of Gruyères is so unique and picturesque! Thank you Mike :)
