“Our guide, Monica, was so helpful and knowledgeable. She really made the trip worth while and went out of her way to accommodate our group. The only improvement I would make is to the wine selection during dinner. It would have been nice to have a wider selection instead of just sweet wines. The Fondu was delicious!”
Spend four cozy hours at Riverhouse S-Münster beside the Neckar. Start with mulled wine or alcohol-free punch by the fire, then enjoy an all-you-can-choose raclette buffet with fish, sausages, cheese, potatoes, vegetables, and dips. Drinks cost extra.
“Very nice evening in a pleasant atmosphere! The evening started with a mulled wine drink. Then the extensive raclette buffet was opened. You could help yourself to whatever you wanted and it was always quickly refilled when something ran out. Our waiters were super attentive and always generously gave us refills. Thank you for the great evening!”

“Andy was an amazing tour guide! We loved the tour as we got to do the Lindt chocolate shop which we wouldn't have done otherwise and the gondola and views from the restaurant were amazing. We got the cutest swiss cow mugs after the dinner and we recommend this experience to say you have done fondue the right way!!!!”

“Our driver was amazing! He was personable. Explained the history of the things we saw. He answered all our questions (even the off topic ones). He took lots of pictures for us and even stopped at Jet d’Eau for pictures even though it wasn’t on the itinerary. The fondue was awesome and great local Swiss wine. He was a careful driver and he tried to make the drive as smooth as possible while we were eating and drinking. He had a blanket in case we were chilly and offered to enclose the Tuk tuk if it was too windy. I recommend this activity highly!”

“If you are looking for something quick to do and a hearty snack, this experience is perfect! It's centrally located in Geneva if you're doing any other shopping or sightseeing. Nicolas was very friendly and attentive! I loved the appetizer of meat and pickles before making the fondue. The portion of cheese and bread was generous and after learning how simple it was, I'm inspired to take my skills back home and do this with my family. The gift of the souvenir at the end was a nice touch!”
Leave Interlaken at 6:00 pm for a guided winter outing high in the Alps. Ride a gondola, sled for about an hour through woods and meadows, pass frozen waterfalls, and finish with a traditional Swiss meal and one drink. The snow location can change with conditions.
“Very fun experience- sledding through the town of Murren at night was truly unbelievable. Beautiful views and scenery. Make sure to take time on your own to take pictures as our group had a number of sledders who wanted to always go once we got to a stopping point and we would not have had the opportunity to take pics if we hadn't stopped and took the time ourselves (no fault of the guides, just a heads up if you want pics/vids). Great guides, easy logistics, very friendly and helpful”
Meet your English or French-speaking driver at Place de Neuve and explore Geneva by private TukTuk. After an old-town introduction, stop for fondue with bread or potatoes, wine or a soft drink, then continue to scenic photo spots. Guides have included Carlos, Dmitri, Aziz, and Yanki.
“Our tour guide Dmitri was prompt and friendly. He asked what we wanted to see. However, we left the decision making to him because we were unfamiliar with Geneva. We started with a stop to pick up our fondue and wine. Once we had the delicious fondue, we settled in for a wonderful ride around the city. He pointed out the various statues and monuments. He took us to a tucked away elevator that allowed for great views and a phot opportunity. We saw where the two rivers in the city meet, which was stunning because the waters don’t mix at the meeting point. We saw the Reformation Wall which…”
