Outrageously priced Geneva Tour

2.00We have taken many Viator tours and this one did not live up to the Viator standard. We drove around Geneva on large bus for about an hour and got very little information about the city. We did get to see the UN and take pictures out front. We then got on a small train that drove around old town w/commentary by the 'conductor'. This was pretty interesting but is available for anyone and I'm sure for a much cheaper fare. Overall, the tour was ok, but outrageous for the price of $110 p/person. We booked it because we thought the boat tour was included. It was 'optional', but there was no where to add when booking and we couldn't add while on the tour.
Good sightseeing, tram...

1.00canned speech, little train with a recorded speech, guide seemed poorly educated, and on top of that the directions for meeting were confusing
Well worth it! Bus tour...

5.00Well worth it! Bus tour for an hour followed by tram tour of old town followed by boat cruise. Our experience lasted 3.5 hours. Very enjoyable. Included a nice snack and wine on the boat.
Ok. Not great.

2.00Though very friendly, our tour guide was not good. If she introduced herself, we did not hear her name. Her English was barely understandable, and the tour script was read robotically. We could not hear the tour description well despite the AV being turned up. For Viator, overall, instructions are sparse. How do we know which group is yours? Can you have a uniform or sign? It was unclear that the boat trip was later in the day, and not right after the coach tour. We had a nice day, but it could have been better.
