5.00Olivia was an amazing guide—energetic, knowledgeable, and full of great stories about the history of chocolate. The tour is well-organized: starting near Starbucks, visiting several chocolate shops, and even crossing the lake by boat with views of the Jet d’Eau. Olivia made the experience fun and personal, even helping us with transport tips afterward. A perfect three hours for anyone who loves chocolate and wants to see Geneva in a unique way!
Excellent activity!
