Stopped by the Agip cafe in Gruyère – the view is insane! The colorful cows (cool art installations) all over the place add a fun touch. And that meringue with double cream? So good, I could eat it all day. Perfect spot to chill for a bit.

Our host, Michal, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the beautiful places we visited. We were not in Switzerland for very long, so this tour was a perfect way to experience a lot of top things in a short span of time.

Ok - review #3. This tour to Gruyère, Chocolate Factory with tastings, cheese factory with tastings, walk through the village of Gruyère with lunch at and with authentic Swiss cuisine - all private with our tour guide extraordinaire, Jonas - was amazing. Simply amazing! Like our other two experiences with Tours of Switzerland, Lina and Jonas, everything was catered, designed to our desires, flawless and without a single hitch. Handled to perfection. I not only recommend this specific tour but I would ONLY recommend Tours of Switzerland (speak with Lina who was incredibly attentive and helpful) and Jonas! We were in Switzerland for 6 nights and had 4 tours, 3 of which was with Tours of Switzerland and Jonas and each one was better than the next! If you’re wondering how the 1 tour through Viator went, find my review - it did not go well at all. Thank you Tours of Switzerland, Lina and Jonas for making our time and experience in Switzerland one we will cherish forever! Until our return!!
