“Great itinerary. But not enough time at Vevey & Montreux. We arrived back in Lausanne early- the tour was supposed to be 8 hours, but it ended up at just over 7.

He asked why he would do that since the EU language is English. So strange, since he lives in France, and Switzerland isn’t part of the EU. I just feel that although he drove very well & had mostly accurate information,…”
