Hard to enjoy an area so beautiful in 2 hrs!

3.00Annecy is beautiful, but the tour is so short. It’s only 45 minutes from Geneva and yet they only want you to stay for 2 hrs. The bus wanted to go back to Geneva to do the city tour( if you signed up). You have to be fit and run to see the area in 2 short hours. Dont even have the time to window shop or shop and sit at one of the outside cafe’s/ restaurant to soak in the atmosphere and enoy. I think they can do a lot betteror or have more tours/ tour buses!

3.00There was a lot of free time which was nice; however no cafes opened before noon and we got tired of walking around the same streets . Annecy was charming but not a lot to see. Our guide was informative but much too repetitious .
It's a beautiful...

1.00No information given about which bus we were supposed to get on. Showed up about 5-10 minutes before 9am and there were at least 10 busses. We tried to ask and were directed to a long line. By the time we got to the front our bus had left. I’d also tried to message the tour operator twice while in line and got no response. I’d like my money back!
