I fund this tour to be a great and relaxing way to get an overall view of Geneva to help plan further excursions around this amazing city! The bus tour part showed us the UN and Red Cross as well as the international part of the city. The train ride took us around the old town and its many sites. The boat ride on Lake Lemond was very relaxing and some wine was served which made it even more relaxing. Our tour guide was very outgoing and informative during the bus ride. Overall, I had a very good experience and all my expectations were exceeded

Gabrielle was a well informed and pleasant guide for bus tour. Old town tour on train was good but information on speakers hard to hear & understand but enjoyable. Boat trip on Lake Leman was also very enjoyable.

The city tour was just mediocre. The guide was very nice but the whole tour could have lasted 45 minutes. No way we could have walked the whole route but we could have seen a lot with public transport and saved a lot! On the old town tram, I couldn’t hear any of the audio. It was frustrating. The boat cruise on the other hand was spectacular! The captain was fabulous and it was so enjoyable.

Lake Cruise, going past the water shooting straight into the air was amazing. The mini train tour. Being able to see a lot of the town was inspiring.
