Tour is good and covers Geneva quite well. The only comment I have is the guide’s view on luxury stores. He seemed to be anti luxury stores and made lot of comments on these stores which were unwarranted

The bus portion of the tour was ok, though we did drive rather quickly past several places of interest without adequate opportunity for photographs. This could be mitigated in part by not having half of the tour as a walking tour, with half of that time spent just getting back to the point of origin. The fact that almost half of the tour was not via bus was not included on the website at booking nor made known until people were already on the bus. Also, as a former tour guide myself, it would be wise to announce at the beginning of the tour when it is scheduled to conclude, since a family on our tour was apparently unaware of the time it was to be over, so they missed another scheduled activity. I know, however, that sometimes patrons are not adequately attuned to he tour schedule at the time of booking and sometimes do not properly schedule themselves, so this is not a fault, just a suggestion to prevent conflict between patrons and tour personnel.Howard_W

Gabriel was an excellent guide, switching easily between French and English, giving just the right amount of information and he would answer all questions. This was January, bitterly cold and the second half of the tour was on foot, be prepared.
