Enter your review here. The guide was very good. However the bus had problems thus we started the trip one hour late and the driver was unexperienced and dissapeared for almost 30 mins in Lausanne. In summary we lost 1:30 minutes waiting.

The scenery was amazing, but the tour was not, and this review is about the tour. I would skip the tour. The guide, Simon was very nice. He did a great job of guiding everyone around and making sure no one wandered off. I would have loved to hear more from him about the mountains and glaciers- their wildlife, their weather patterns, everything about them. The tour was really slow. On the way home, your "tour" bus runs as a public transport bus, which adds 4 stops on your way home. That part was ridiculous. Anyway, I would definitely recommend seeing Chamonix Mont Blanc, the summit and the glacier.

An excellent tour. Our guide was Simon, and he was very friendly, helpful, and professional. I would recommend this trip very highly.

A tour that I will remember for the rest of my life. Tour guide was great. Scenery was beautiful! I was scared to death as I am scared of heights... but it was worth every minute to be able to say I was up that high in the Alps.

This trip was the highlight of our whole trip to Switzerland! The tour made it easier to navigate around. Only wish we had more time to stay. Now that we know more about the area, next time we'll go on our own.

THis tour was quite good. However, I suggest you should start including the optins for Cable Car trip inside Mont Blanc mountains as an option against train ride which was not really impressive.

Tour Guide Mera was really great! The only item I would say we could improve would be more time at the Castle instead of sitting around in one of the towns (the one before we leave). We only had 40 minutes in the castle and the audiotour takes at least 1.5 hours. I didn't get through the whole tour before having to leave.

There was some confusion about the timings for the parts of the day and lunch was very rushed. Otherwise the locations were fantastic.

Unfornately we arrived in Chamonix only to learn the tram would not be going up to Mont Blanc because of excessive wind. We spent several hours in town instead. The glacier was cool, but the whole point of the trip was to do Mont Blanc, so it was a disappointment.

Lovely experience - would definitely recommend it to others. Our guide could have been a tad better but was acceptable.

This is one beautiful place that is not be missed if you are ever in the area...and don't forget to take the train to the Glacier AND make the effort to walk the 400 steps down to the Ice Cave....

This tour is perfect for those wanting to see as much of Lake Geneva and it's beautiful towns and villages in a short period of time (9.5 hrs). The pace is enjoyable for those of all ages, which was nice for us (a group with a wide range of ages). Our guide and our driver were both informative and genuine in their interactions with guests. This tour is recommended 100%.

Overall, it was a good trip. The guide was nice and well-informed. The walking from one area to the restaurant was excessive, esp in the heat.
