Great trip although be prepared for a long time on a coach. Our driver/rep (Roger) was brilliant and informative and knew how to tell a story. Could have done with a bit longer than just an hour in Montreau (think that is how it is spelt) but, all in all, worth booking.

Our tour guide David was amazing, and very funny. He gave us information about sites and historical facts and played Queen music during the ride! Glacier 3000 was an incredible experience, the suspension bridge gave incredible views and the fun park was great. We were provided with lunch, and although the mountain coaster was closed due to snow cover we still got to experience the ski lift. In the photos most people are in jeans and trainers but I would recommend waterproof/fleece trousers and boots if possible because it really is cold up there, especially in the wind, although they have a restaurant for hot choc to warm up afterwards! Montreux is an 1 hour stop afterwards, where there is a statue of Freddie Mercury! The day we went (friday), there was a market on the waterfront, bring cash because most don't have card readers! David then very kindly dropped us at the train station which was super! Thank you so much David for the incredible day!
