The information posted online about this excursion is very deceptive. It is not a not a 'riviera cruise,' it is a taxi, taking people from place to place. It stops at Chillón castle as well as every other little town on the Swiss side of the lake. There is no commentary and no way to know what you are seeing. This is for commuters, not for tourists. The fact that this is not made clear on all the tourist websites where it is listed seems intentionally deceptive. We were incredibly disappointed as we could have found a better way to spend our time and money on our short visit to Montreux.

Der Bestellvorgang und das Bezahlen hat einwandfrei geklapp. Hingegen konnte der Kontrolleur beim Einsteigen zum Schiff den QR-Code mit seinem Handy trotz vorhandener App nicht lesen; der Code wurde nie scharf dargestellt. Er liess mich nach ein paar Versuchen aber doch aufs Schiff, wo dann wieder alles wie erwartet gut war.

Entspannte Crew und Mitarbeitende im Restaurant. Alles gepflegt. Schöne Tour über den See bei schönstem Wetter (auch wenn ihr dafür nicht verantwortlich seid). Kann man nur empfehlen, wenn man ein paar entspannte Stunden erleben will!

es war absolut toll - das einzige was nicht so toll war, dass die Maskenpflicht nicht korrekt eingehalten wurde und dass viele Menschen zu nah beieinander sassen - etwas überfüllt. Aber das Boot wurde leerer und leerer

Our tour guide Angela was really amazing, super warm hearted person. She was very helpful to everyone whoever asked questions, shared her experiences and informed us about everything. I really enjoyed her guidance :) That's very important to me. I wish the tour took 5 hours as the company says so, but it's only three hours until the last stop Lindt, and then you're free to leave whenever you want. So it's not 5 hours as the company sells it.

Zurich is a beautiful city with both a modern part of the town and old part of the town. We were shown around by a tour guide named Daniel, a Zurich local, who is proficient in English, French and German. He was welcoming, educational and humorous. Would highly recommend this tour for tourists in Zurich
