5.00Gabor was an amazing tour guide, keeping us entertained to and from Gruyeres. He took us around Gruyeres and show us spots you wouldn't know without him. Museum was brilliant and stopped in the bar for a drink. Castle was great to walk around and the views were out of this world. Stopped at St George's for lunch, view and food both stunning. Chocolate factory tour was so interactive and samples were very tasty.
Great tour!

5.00Really enjoyed this tour. Easy pick up at our hotel. Nice comfortable scenic ride. Giger museum & bar is fantastic! Our driver, Gabor, was awesome. The castle and chocolate factory were nice, but the Giger museum was what I went for. Good amount of time spent at each spot.
