Full description

This tour will give you the chance to enjoy the beauty of the Swiss Riviera at Lake Geneva (or Leman, as it is also known), while giving you the option to tailor the trip to your needs and interests. 

Board the coach in Geneva and drive through the Vaud countryside, passing Lausanne and stopping at Lavaux, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its exquisite wine production. During the spring and summer months, you will also have the chance to visit a vineyard where local wine will be served.  Leaving Lavaux, the next stop will be Vevey. Take an overall tour of the city, the Nestlé headquarters, and the covered market, and have some free time for lunch. 

You can discover Chapin’s World — a site dedicated to Charlie Chaplin, and go on an extraordinary adventure across time and through the magical world of cinema. Know more about one of the surprising artists of the 20th century through the sets of his greatest films at a Hollywood-style studio.

After visiting Vevey, if you have the lake cruise option on your tour, embark on a journey in an old steamer boat to the Castle of Chillon. Located on the bank of Lake Geneva, the castle is one of the most visited historical places in Switzerland, dating back to the 11th century.  If you decided on the option that includes the castle, you will have a guided tour through the building, and in case you did not choose the cruise option, you will be taken to the castle directly by bus.  Afterward, your last stop will be in Montreux, a glamorous tourist resort. Feel the atmosphere of great artists that visited this place, such as Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, BB King, and Ray Charles. Wander through the streets full of fancy shops and landmarks of the famous jazz festival.

Edmunds was a great guide; he strived to make sure all his guests were accounted for and gave good instructions and information. We enjoyed each of the stops, wish there was a little more time allotted for Chaplin World and at Chillon Castle. It felt like we had to rush through to make sure we were back at the allotted time and would have loved to slow down and really take in both of those sites.

This was a great trip overall, but the allotted time at Chateau de Chillon was way too short and we found ourselves literally running through the castle but still ended up not seeing the upper portions (where I understand we missed seeing views of the lake). In contrast, we had way too much time in Montreux and ended up just standing around and killing time after walking the entire lakefront. The guide was great and acknowledged that an extra 30-45 minutes at Chateau de Chillon would have benefited everyone on the tour (we all expressly commented that the Chillon portion was too rushed), especially since this time could easily be cut from the stop in Montreux.

Time was well split, just enough time in every part of the tour. The only reason I gave a 4 star instead of 5 is because we didn’t go to any vineyard or get a glass of wine as indicated in the “what’s included”. Our guide, Tom, was great! Super friendly and great music taste for the road:)
