    Freddie Mercury Tour

    Shirley_D, Sep 2024
    This is a must do for any Queen fan, it is fantastic, full of interesting facts about the music scene in Montreux, our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable about all things Freddie, all flat walking and very easy, it takes you into places that the general public cannot go, I recommend the full extended tour, absolutely worth doing and all in the beautiful surroundings of the Lake, worth every penny. Awesome, thank you for a fab experience, sadly don't remember the name of our friendly tour guide.

    Good overall value for money.

    The whole tour was memorable. The only change I would suggest would be to include the studio tour rather than just point it out and make people return to the casino to see it.

    Response from Host, Apr 2022

    Hello, thanks for the feedback. As explained during the visit, the "Queen - The Studio Experience" museum is very well documented and full of information that is accessible to all. The entrance, which is free of charge, is also located 2 min walk from the statue of Freddie Mercury (the place where the visit ends). Everyone can discover and enjoy this place at their own pace, taking the time they want to explore it, before or after the Tour. Freddie Tours focuses on presenting exclusive content in order to bring something new and original to the visitor. Thank you for participating in the Freddie Tour!

    Freddy the best

    Nonostante la giornata di pioggia siamo state trasportate dalla magia e dall’atmosfera di Montreux, il tour operator molto simpatico e disponibile, e che dire, il tour è stato a dir poco emozionante! Dalle immagini ai video alla passeggiata per il lungolago, super consigliata!

    Fantastisch ervaring
