He was warm, personable, and so much fun to be around—striking the perfect balance between being engaging and giving us time to soak in the sights. His knowledge of the region, culture, and history added so much depth to our visit, and his sense of humor made the day fly by. From start to finish, Timothy made us feel welcome and cared for, and his friendly personality set the tone for a truly memorable adventure. If you have the chance to request him as your driver and guide, don’t hesitate—you’ll be in excellent hands!

We had a truly wonderful experience with Mr. Eric as our guide on the Gruyère and Cailler day tour. From start to finish, he was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared great stories and local insights that made the journey feel so much more personal and meaningful. Eric’s calm and friendly nature created a relaxed atmosphere, and he went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable and engaged. Whether it was exploring the charming village of Gruyère or enjoying the sweet delights of the Cailler chocolate factory, Eric made sure every moment was smooth and memorable. Thank you, Mr. Eric, for your kindness and excellent guidance — you made our day extra special. Highly recommended to anyone visiting the region!

Our family trip to Gruyeres was fantastic! Our tour guide could not have been more wonderful! He was so kind and knowledgeable and made sure we had everything we needed every step of the way. The cheese and chocolate tours were such fun. Our family opted to have lunch in the village, and it was one of the most delicious meals I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this tour!!
