Overview

This full-day bus tour from Geneva lasts about 10 hours and includes visits to Chaplin's World, the Lavaux vineyard terraces, Chillon Castle, and Montreux. The tour begins with a pick-up and photo stop at The Olympic Museum before traveling through the Vaud countryside to Vevey. Here, guests spend one hour at Chaplin's World, the former home of Charlie Chaplin turned museum, exploring three exhibition spaces that showcase the life and films of the artist. Next, the bus passes through the UNESCO-listed Lavaux vineyard terraces, where a 30-minute stop offers an apéritif featuring local products. From there, the group boards a Belle Epoque side-wheel paddle steamer for a 45-minute first-class cruise on Lake Geneva, available from June to September if the option is selected. The boat ride ends at Chillon Castle, a 12th-century medieval fortress on a small island. Visitors spend one hour exploring the castle's courtyards and covered bridge. The final part of the day is spent in Montreux, with about 45 minutes of free time to explore the old town, see the Freddie Mercury statue, and visit Queen's famous recording studio. Bottled water is provided throughout the day, and a driver guide accompanies the group. Lunch is not included in this tour.
