    Something for everyone

    Such a great tour. Pick up was easy. Roger, our tour guide was very informative. When we had free time, he gave suggestions as to what we could do. We had beautiful views from the boat ride. The castle was amazing. It was cool to see The Queen Experience and places where they recorded. Then onto Charlie Chaplins estate. It sounds jammed packed but it was a very relaxed day. We would definitely recommend.

    Castillo El Chillon Suiza

    Es un castillo muy bien conservado, con una vista espectacular!! Los paisajes, la historia ! Sin duda no debe faltar en la visita a Suiza, recomiendo rentar carro y recorrer este maravilloso y mágico castillo para tomarse con calma esta visita, además afuera del castillo se toman fotos lindismas.

    Unparalleled service to overcome...

    <p>Unparalleled service to overcome unanticipated route closure our guide Maria went above/beyond ordinary service the tour is a great day on the Swiss Riviera...plenty of time to see how the top 1 lived 50 yrs ago Charlie Chaplin...and today, in Montreaux. The castle @ Chillon matches youthful dreams of what a mideival fortress was all about. The relaxing lake cruise back to Vevey caps off a memorable day in the Swiss lake region.</p>

    Wonderful trip. The Chaplin Museum...

    <p>Wonderful trip. The Chaplin Museum was amazing, and the castle was breathtaking. My only complaint was that the trip was long and exhausting. By the time we got to Montreux, we only had 45 minutes there and we were so tired!</p>
