    Nice good tour to get acquainted with the area

    Laura_R, Apr 2026
    I waited to long to write this, I hope I have remembered the name right, our guide was Francois, and it was just my husband and I on this tour, so it was sort of a private tour. We had a lovely time, I’m a vegetarian do Francois had to mix a few things up, but we were full and I couldn’t even finish my hot chocolate, which was possibly the best hot chocolate I have ever had. Fewer stops than done good tours, but hearty portions, and we saw quite a few Geneva highlights while we were at it.

    Very nice historical and food tour

    Kat_J, Mar 2026
    Nice selection including traditional Swiss Swiss fondue with Gruyère and chasselet as opposed to Savoyard fondue with Beaufort which is a wonderful contrast after a week of French skiing; really enjoyed the anecdotes and details about Switzerland from our guide as well as animated conversation with the other couple on the tour One note - I mistook the mention of water as being something g to carry with as opposed to offered with the fondue and hot chocolate so I forgot to bring a bottle of water to drink while walking

    The food tour provided...

    Dede_L, Feb 2026
    The food tour provided highlights of Geneva along with samples of local food. Our tour guide, Francois, was very friendly and knowledgeable. My only recommendation for improvement would be to change the hot chocolate stop to a food stop. We feel there wasn’t quite enough food to feel full at the end of the tour as the tour description states.

    We had a great experience with Robert. We visited a food hall for charcuterie, followed by Fondue at a local restaurant, the best hot chocolate we have ever had and of course chocolate. Robert was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed our afternoon

    Delicious and filling...

    Delicious and filling food experience in Geneva with Benjamin. The fondue was a highlight, both the food and the atmosphere. We also enjoyed the “hidden” hot chocolate stop.

    Great guide and food!

    Ron_O, Dec 2025
    This tour was great - just us and the guide, Francois. Good amount of food, some walking and exploring. Come hungry! Marketplace for meats, then Fondue, then hot chocolate and finished with more chocolate!!

    Food Tour with Benjamin

    John_G, Dec 2025
    Tour with Ben was interesting while short on food knowledge, it was long on history politics, and culture.

    Great food. Great guide. Beautiful city

    Mark_G, Nov 2025
    We had a wonderful day with Robert. He was engaging, knowledgeable and great to spend the day with. He shared lots of knowledge of Geneva, the area and the food, but also his personal experience with the city. The food was amazing and lots of it. The meats at the market were tasty and way too much and the cheese fondue… amazing. One of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Not only that but it was served at a beautiful small classic Swiss restaurant in the heart of the old city. Follow that up with two chocolate tastings and that makes for a perfect day. My only complaint - I wished the tour had said to come hungry or I would not have eaten breakfast that morning. I wanted to eat even more!

    Highly recommend!

    This was such a wonderful tour! My mom and I were new to Geneva and took this tour on our very first day - it was the perfect way to get acclimated to the city. Nigel was incredibly knowledgeable about both the city and its food culture, and every stop featured something delicious. We loved the places we visited, and the pacing and duration of the tour were spot-on. Highly recommend!

    Too much for fondue and hot chocolate

    Deborah_G, Jul 2025
    While Nigel was a very personable guide, the cost of this tour was not justifiable. Charcuterie off a service cart in the back of a market near service doors was not enticing. Cheese fondue was delish as was the stop for hot chocolate, and a handful of chocolates as a parting gift.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Hello, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. I would, however, like to kindly clarify a few points regarding your comment about the price being unjustifiable. The tour you attended lasted 3.5 hours and included the services of a guide at a cost that reflects the fair compensation we provide to our team, which is something we value highly. I’m not sure if your remark was directed solely at the food, but it's also worth mentioning that Geneva is one of the most expensive cities in Europe. Despite this, we’ve made every effort to curate a selection of five high-quality, local establishments that truly reflect the culture of the city. We also ensure that the portions are generous, and we genuinely believe it would be difficult to find a similar experience with the same standards at a lower price point. Additionally, wine was included and enjoyed during the tour, an element that naturally adds to the overall cost as well. Our goal is always to offer a sincere, authentic experience that showcases the best of Geneva in a welcoming and respectful way. While we understand and appreciate that opinions may vary, we feel your review may not fully reflect the care and effort that goes into each tour. Thank you again for your feedback,

    Robert gave an excellent tour. More food than we could eat. Nice historical sights also. Highly recommended.

    A great way to experience Geneva in a day

    Robert_O, Dec 2024
    Anabelle was a wonderful guide. She is bright and friendly company, nothing is too much trouble for her. She kept us well informed throughout the tour. Thank you!

    Lovely afternoon with lots of food!

    Anne_L, Dec 2024
    Ben was a really delightful host to spend the afternoon with. All the food was delicious and there was plenty of it. The tour just felt slightly disorganised and we felt he could have planned the route to stop at interesting places and tell us more of the history along the way. I know he is new to guiding so I am sure this will all come as he gains experience and confidence, but I would still recommend this tour. We really did enjoy it.
