It’s awesome when you have short time in Genève and needs to see everything fast. Staff including driver was awesome, the bus was late a lil bit but understandable due to high traffic Visited almost everything I want to see, with bus, Boat, tiny train, they were all fun. Cons: EXTREMELY RUDE Asian woman that talks to people from her inner nose at the boat Pier where you exchange QR code with physical ticket. The Awesome Tour guide saved the day and gave us tickets not to deal with her. Other than that, highly recommended

This was a wonderful experience. Gabriel really was prepared with a lot of information and humor. We really enjoyed the bus tour, the tram tour and the boat cruise on Lake Geneva. The tram ride through Old Town was a pleasant surprise and well orchestrated by Gabriel who met us at the end for the connecting walk to the boat cruise. A great way to get an overview of Geneva!

It was very informative tour , but needs a little bit if adjustment . For example it would be nicer if small trolley dropped people off next to boat departure . I do not see a reason why passengers walk from trolley stop to the pier. Also stop on Mont blank can be a little bit longer or additional stop may be added on next to st Peter basilica. But in spite of small inconvenience the tour was very good and i would recommend it
