“Our guide who said his nickname is “Roger” was fabulous. The right amount of knowledge and humor made the trip wonderful. Our driver Azdine was also very polite, professional ,and pleasant. He offered to take a photo of my husband and myself and that was very much appreciated. They represented your company perfectly. I wish all of my tours had these two gentlemen as my guide and driver. Sincerely, Dana and Leslie West”

“I was disappointed with tour, . Wanted to hear more info on Basel . Disappointed in guides cheese and chocolate shop. Would have loved to buy some chocolate to take home, but it wasn’t a store. He didn’t offer us water during cheese/chicolate tour and there was only one chair to sit down in store. When we went to bakery, had to sit on a window ledge to eat pastry. This tour was not worth the money . He was late for our tour(he did email and let us know) and left us after tour to get back to hotel. Wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone . Debbie marx”

When we visited Appenzell, we were given freebies in 4-5 shops. I felt like I was trick or treating at 51 yesrs old… cool! LOL. To me, it did worth the price. I would recommend.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 134 reviews · 10 hours · from $297

Chocolate and cheese in Gruyères plus a GoldenPass panoramic train ride from Geneva. Fondue, tastings, medieval village views.

“The tour was absolutely fantastic. The bus ride was smooth, and our tour guide, Maggie, was direct and to the point with very clear directions. Our first stop to the chocolate factory was much more than we expected... My wife and I were stuffed from all the samples... the next stop to the Gruyère factory was very intriguing, and packed full of information. The restaurant they took us to for a fondue/food tasting was intimate. The medieval town of Gruyères is a definite must-see. You feel like you’re still in the 1500s. Overall, this has been one of the best experiences we’ve had.”

Geneva to Gruyères by air-conditioned coach for Maison Cailler chocolate tasting, La Maison du Gruyère cheese, scenic views, and castle time.

“Of the six tours that we booked this one was beyond disappointing. We had a driver and tour guide, and how is it possible that there were no introductions of who are tour guide was until one hour and 55 minutes later when we got to our first destination. Getting off of the bus you could barely hear what the tour guide was telling us and then it was like a freefall, knowing that we had to be back to the bus at a certain time. The advertisement of a chocolate factory was beyond disappointing, as we have visited chocolate factories in many different countries and this just seem to…”

Gruyère and Cailler tastings from Geneva with castle views, HR Giger art, and door-to-door pickup, including admissions and headsets.

“Gabor led us on a wonderful excursion out of Geneva for the day to Gruyere where we learned all about Swiss cheese and chocolate making. We got to sample both & ate fondue at a wonderful restaurant in the old town of Gruyere overlooking the mountains & the beautiful green valley between. Unexpectedly, the highlight of the trip for me was the tour through the castle with ramparts, furnishings & paintings which allowed me to imagine what life must have been like there in past times. Through it all, Gabor was an excellent guide - highly recommend.”

15.Swiss Cheese Tasting Experience | Basel

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 81 reviews · 35 minutes (approx.) · from $21

Basel Swiss cheese tasting in a small group, learn how Swiss cheese is made, and taste up to seven samples including Gruyère AOP in about 35 minutes.

“In less than six hours of our schedule the vendor delayed the time of the event. While the time change was for an hour for the first event and a second event delayed 30 minutes it still negatively impacted later plans we had so we missed this event. While on a prior walking tour of the town we walked by the shop. The shop was closed and the shop did not look very reputable so we were very disappointed. This venue seems far below the standards of the other Viator tours we have done.”
