Lots of Pisten Kilometers but slow chairlifts, and due to warmer climate and the moderate altitude not as snow safe as it was few years ago.
Nice Village in Avoriaz and ok Pricing
Maximilian Keck — Google review
We stayed at the Camping du Grand Paradis site next to Champery on the Swiss side. The ski lift was 100m from our camper which was fantastic. Portes du Soleil covers a massive ski area and we could get across to the French side in about 20 minutes. Brilliant for ski touring, just make sure you know the way back and don't leave it until the lift stations are closing down for the day, especially after a long lunch in Avoriaz on your first day!

This is about web page of this domain, in particular focused on the Swiss side, it stinks badly. Examples: I am registered user, login disabled since they changed to 8 digit password as I figure out after 20 min. Reset password, login disabled for 15 more min since I tried old password for more than 5 times. It would work in a min if they were able to send a message, please reset password to 8 minimum digits. In the process I crossed 11AM so I want to reduce the fee for one day ticket, but the web page does not offer that choice for Swiss-French area. Purchase on French side did not work either perhaps because it would cost less, but my IP is Swiss. Shall I continue?? Oh I forgot, I wanted to complain formally, they want that I upload documentation, and proof of purchase.... well than they truly deserve this. Top this up that when the domain went insolvent a couple years beack they refused to honor my loyalty points which were earned over a few years. Now they offer new loyalty program... is this Swiss way of doing business??

One of the most beautiful places on mother Earth. Took a cable car from Chamonix to the top Auigile du Midi and had the most stunning and breathtaking view. Can imagine how much more surreal it is in winter time. Strongly recommended to wear a lot of sunscreen at the top and sunglasses. Worth every penny and hopefully I'll be coming back soon.

Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps, offers breathtaking views and unforgettable experiences. When planning your visit, consider using the multi pass to access various attractions and activities. Arriving early is key to avoiding long queues and ensuring a more enjoyable experience. Additionally, don't forget to protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen and appropriate clothing to prevent sunburn.

The Mont Blanc massif is popular for outdoor activities like hiking, climbing, trail running and winter sports like skiing, and snowboarding. The most popular climbing route to the summit of Mont Blanc is the Goûter Route, which typically takes two days.
The three towns and their communes which surround Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy; and Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France. The latter town was the site of the first Winter Olympics. A cable car ascends and crosses the mountain range from Courmayeur to Chamonix, through the Col du Géant.

Beautiful and breathtaking, a must for anyone who visits, and we only visited Aiguille de Midi level as the top was closed due to severe wind. Leaves more for us to visit next time! Cable car is large and quite quick up/down the mountain, great views! My advice is to check weather conditions and dress warm and wear proper footwear as it can be quite cold and slippery in certain areas up there.

It was a solo hike for me via by Gouter route with two nights at Tête Rousse basecamp. Note that it is not crevasse free route! You have to cross several of them on the way, especially just after Goutier hut.
Ascent 5:45h, descent about 5:10h. I started the ascent at 2:15 AM and was at the top at 8:00 AM, no major stops. The route is well marked and recognisable even with head light. On the descent I was quite slow and was stoping for some chit chats with others and come back at circa 13:30 PM.
Tents has their own matress (just bring sleeping bag). No running water. 1,5l bottled water costs 9€! Trash bins available.

Chamonix and Mt Blanc are picturesque and breathtaking. An absolute must area to visit either in summer or winter with breathtaking views and a great chilled out atmosphere
One of the most iconic mountains in Chamonix, Aiguille du Midi is a great place to take in breathtaking 360-degree views of the French Alps. You can reach the peak by cable car from Chamonix year-round, and it's well worth braving the cold for some incredible views.
Cable car will get you straight to top, where you can see beautiful view of nearby mountains and Mont Blanc, this is a clearly must see sight in Chamonix

Breathtaking views everywhere you look, it’s a unique experience being on this mountain. Highly recommend going beyond the beaten path of the cable car tour and exploring (climbing) if you have the time and physical fitness.

It is worth visiting even though the cable car is expensive and you might get instant altitude sickness.
It’s also a great point from which to admire Mont Blanc and it’s glaciers.
The views are very impressive.
Quite amazing
Sorin Careba — Google review
Before purchasing tickets for Aiguille du Midi, consider these factors:
The views are incredible, but if you plan to visit the Panoramic restaurant, booking in advance is essential. Alternatively, there's a coffee shop at the first cable car stop, which doesn't require booking.
Keep in mind that the cable car can shake, which might be challenging for those with labyrinthitis or a fear of heights. If you have heart or lung problems, it's advisable to seek advice before going.
Dress warmly with gloves, heavy clothing, and a hat, as it can be very cold. Don't forget sunglasses and sunscreen to protect your skin from the cold.
Sue Real — Google review
Go in summer season.
I stayed 4 days and due to strong wind the cable car didn’t run for 3 days. Only at the last day I could catch but only to see 2 hrs of nothing but white clouds.
I could finally have a 15mins window of something, but could be much better in summer. When there’s less wind and snow or rain

Reading the negative reviews you gotta laugh. They are about as helpful as complaining about lack of oxygen at the top.

Stunning and truly magical landscapes everywhere you look. Many people have pointed this out throughout all reviews here. And again, the price per ticket to the highest point is 74,- €. Expensive, but worth it for once.

Visiting Aiguille du Midi was an awe-inspiring experience that left us utterly amazed. This architectural marvel is a true testament to modern technology, offering a breathtaking feast for the senses. The towering height at which it's built is a feat that immediately captures your attention, and its proximity to Mont Blanc adds an extra layer of grandeur.
The journey to the top was just as remarkable as the destination. The two cabins that take you up are a fun and exciting part of the adventure, enhancing the overall experience. Despite the cloudy weather on the day of our visit, the panoramic views from Aiguille du Midi were still utterly breathtaking. The way the clouds enveloped the mountains added a touch of mystique to the scene.
One of the most delightful surprises was the restaurant at the top. Not only does it offer a variety of delicious food options, but the quality was also impressive, considering the altitude. The assortment of beverages available was also a nice touch, allowing us to unwind while taking in the stunning vistas.
A small detail that stood out was the cleanliness of the facilities, particularly the toilets. Even at such a high altitude and remote location, they were impeccably maintained, contributing to the overall pleasant experience.
What added to the charm of our visit was the fact that it wasn't very crowded. We could truly immerse ourselves in the beauty of the surroundings without feeling rushed or crowded by tourists.

Beautiful cable car experience!
We bought our tickets for my daughter's sweet 16 birthday. It was incredible. Just be warned it is quite hard to breathe at the top level. Not so much outside, but inside the buildings it was difficult to catch our breath.
Stunning glacier views. There is moderate hiking trails at the lower level, as well as a outside bar and cafe. Truly an unforgettable time!

Life time experience... Aiguille du Midi is a must see !!
Took a thought bus from Geneva and reached the base of Aiguille... It was an amazing bus ride. From there took stage 1 cable car to station 1 and from there 2nd cable car to station to and then a lift takes us atop of the mountain !!!
What an experience....
These spots are for Skiing points... It has all facilities necessary... Toilets to restaurants guides... Wonderful!!!

This ride up to the summit is an incredible, unforgettable experience. I went in April as a family of 4 with kids aged 10 & 8 and we loved it all - especially the Pipe and Step into the Void glass box which was awesome even in the cloud and snow, so doing it on a clear day would be even more amazing. It wasn’t a busy day so we enjoyed no waiting times and plenty of space to look around the different features of the experience - the tunnel and the 360 platforms were a massive highlight. The views are breathtaking and it’s so peaceful to be so high into the mountains. The experience is so well thought out with tonnes of different sections, views and exhibits. We stopped at the Plan d l’Aiguille Terrasse at 2317m the first stop point in the cable car journey on the way up to acclimatise and take in the views at that height before continuing on up and taking the second car up to the Piton Nord summit. My youngest did suffer with the altitude after being at the very top for nearly an hour so it’s worth considering not spending too long up there with kids and to pay attention to how you’re feeling as it can come on suddenly. We ordered croque toasties and a hot dog in the cafeteria which were good, but pricey, so take a picnic up with you if you want to limit the cost of the trip. Overall, given everything you see and how mind blowing it all is to experience in a few hours, the price of the ticket is more than worth it. The journey back down is just as much of a thrill as you look back up to the summit and question whether you were really all the way up there in the clouds - my favourite part on the way up and back were the three sections in the cabling where the car passed through a joining bit and did an unexpected bump and tipped a bit before speeding up an whooshing faster and everyone when woahhh in unison. The whole day was an unforgettable rush!

Just Amazing!!! The Mont Blanc Unlimited Pass includes access and the lift up which is better than paying separately. It also includes train and entrance to Mer de Glacé. Doing both in one day with lunch in between is a great way to spend one of your days in Chamonix.

Absolutely worth the ticket price to get up high and see the Chamonix valley and the unique Alpine vistas. It will be cold at any time of year (even mid summer) so wrap up warm and enjoy. Climbers with the appropriate gear can step out onto the ridges and explore.

The view was amazing! We really loved it there, very informative as well. The ticket is quite expensive but it’s a one time experience where you can see Mont Blanc and many other peaks so clear including Matterhorn.

The place is magnificent! The cable car ride by itself is already an attraction! It is quite unbelievable the engineering efforts to construct it, and the ride to the top of Aiguille du Midi is thrilling!
The view is amazing and it is a must! The price per person is not the cheapest one, but when you remember the unique experience, the cable car and the infrastructure, it becomes worth it.

What a wonderful place ! Worth the tour even if the lift price is … too expensive ! I really recommend to take a Mont Blanc Unlimited pass to have other tours and activities as the price is almost the same than Aiguille du midi !
You may feel a bit « sick » when you arrive but don’t panic, you will just need time to feel better
To have access to the platform View point, you will have to wait 30min to take beautiful pictures
Wear warm and hot clothes ! The temperatures are super cold
You even have a small cinéma to watch the story of High peaks ! Enjoy !

We took a cable car from Chamonix to Aiguille du Midi and, as our guide said, it was spectacular.
Absolutely wonderful views (we were lucky as it was very sunny weather). I was able to see Mont Blanc and take some great pictures from the 'window'. We were advised that oxygen would be 40% lower, so we took it easy on the stairs and tried to take deep breaths. I would recommend taking some sunscreen as it is very bright.
I was disappointed with the staff and their attitude - especially the guy who was responsible for letting people in by cable train (very rude, not helpful at all when we needed some support). Similar story with the lady who was taking pictures in the window. There is no need to be rude to people as they only want nice holiday pictures. They should take some customer service course or pretend to be happy.
Apart from that, I would recommend going to the top as it is worth experiencing.
Karol Zyga — Google review
Oh, the views . . . But be careful if you are planning to buy tickets in advance as you might not be able to go up. When we arrived, they were not letting people up due to poor weather conditions, but after a couple of hours' wait, they opened up. Although it was a bit cloudy when up there, I was happy with the views. Be mindful of difficulty to breathe as well as walk when up there, literally breathtaking ✨️ 😊

Aquariaz is a waterpark located at the Avoriaz ski resort, featuring a tropical theme and various recreational facilities. The park boasts of a lazy river, half-pipe attraction and several pools for visitors to enjoy. It's an ideal place for children with attractions such as baby pool, fun slide, and other activities suitable for older kids. This aquatic center is also known for its cleanliness, making it a perfect destination to have some aquatic fun without worrying about hygiene issues.
Great place for when the weather is bad! Just really a shame the outdoor jacuzzi pool is not larger as its always packed.
Felix - — Google review
The pool is warm with great facilities and the kids’ water play area is fun for kids to explore. It got very crowded in late afternoon though. They sent some photographers to take photos for people there but the photos are a rip-off. It is actually cheaper to get them online afterwards than to purchase at the spot. I am quite upset that I have now found out I paid more than I need to for a family photo.
Alva Wan — Google review
A nice break from skiing, this pool is perfect for going when the weather is too bad to ski. Some lazy river routes, pools to swim and fun for the kids. There's even an outside jacuzzi. Can be quite busy, the only downside was children throwing snow at each other and splashing in the outside pool with no life guard or parents to tell them to stop - this was quite off-putting so I'm only rating it 4*. Changing rooms ok, a bit small cubicle sizes. Overall ok, it's the only water park pool in the area so I can't be picky.
Bex Middleton — Google review
You have to park and walk 5 minutes to get to the pool. It was very crowded and not as warm as I expected. There is no Steam room or Sauna. The doughnut slide is thrilling, but you have to queu for 5-15 minutes to get on and it only lasts 20 seconds. The plants are nice and the kids area is good for smaller children.
Bathsheba Weiss-Lijn — Google review
Really nice swimming pool to spend your last afternoon and get a shower before your trip home. Ask the person at the slide to spin your tire, it's awesome.
Jacuzzi outside is great, 10/10 would get hit by a snowball thrown from the overhead skilift again.
Only gripe is the temperature of the water: it's a few degrees too cold, especially inside.

Gee Kennedy — Google review
It was a mixed experience. First, it is a fun place to spend a couple of hours. The lazy river is nice and slidewinder is a fun. However, the place is small, and can be crowded even on a workday. My main problem though was that the water was cold. Really cold, and not just to me, you could see people shivering and trying to get warmed in the infants area, where the water was slightly warmer, though very shallow. The park claims that the water is 30 C, but judging by my feeling, it is WELL below 30 C. Maybe they measure it at the point of heating, and there it is 30 C, but not in the pool. The temperature in the "jacuzzi" was even according to the park claims below 33 C, not 34 C. So, dear park, please take heating the water seriously.
Andrey Katz — Google review
My first review ever because it has to be shared.
If you are hoping to enjoy a hot tub/jacuzzi, this is not the place. There is only an outdoor jacuzzi and it is not even as warm as a bath. Add to that the complete lack of supervision and there is no place to relax and enjoy the nature outside for a minute. When we first went outside, a large group of kids and adults were having a snowball fight, with no regard for anyone not in their group (not Aquariaz's fault, but also something they can act on and keep an eye out for - yes I did speak a lifeguard on duty, and spoke up while outside). I might sound like an old grouch, but I was hoping not to get multiple snowballs to the head and back this afternoon. There is also no hot tub/jacuzzi inside, so no chance to truly warm up inside. I ended up going back to the showers for 5-10 minutes to warm myself up so I could stay for a bit more time (my partner had wanted to try the place out, so trying to last a little longer).
The main pool water is a good temperature (if there was somewhere else you could warm up from time to time) and the lazy river concept is nice. The "rock climbing" wall is only to be done horizontally to get to the rope swing and for taller adults, the depth of the pool under the rope swing is not significantly different to the rest of the main pool.
The redeeming quality to the waterpark is the adult slide. A good little adrenaline rush so had a few tries at that (though be careful of your feet against the sidewall at the bottom exit).
My local public pool is a much more pleasant experience.
Avoriaz is one of the 12 resorts in the Portes du Soleil skiing area. It provides more than 600 km of slopes and is an ideal location for families to learn how to ski. The resort is situated at an altitude of 1800m in the French Alps, and it starts snowing from early December.
Great place to learn to ski 🎿 for all thefamily 👪 Situated at 1800m altitude in the French Alps, snowing 🌨 from beginning of December. The skiing resort has all you need at the door step, ski out ski in, ski rentals, skiing schools for kids and adults, learners and advanced slopes, restaurants, huts 🛖 seling hot drinks and pancakes, shops, supermarkets where you can by anything including reading made hot food. We loved the most the restaurants on the slopes, didn't need to go back on the resort for a drink or food, being able to have hot drinks and food enabled us to stay all day on the slopes.

A beautiful large ski resort. It can be quite steep and difficult to walk around. The weather cannot be helped, however in bad weather it can be difficult to get around. Lots of shops and restaurants, not much night life especially if you're staying below the gondola lift as it stops running at 9pm. Pros and cons, however this is my first ski resort so I'm unsure what to compare it against for now.

Avoriaz is a brilliant place in winter. Great skiing and snow boarding. Lots of runs and off piste sections. The resort itself is car free but does have snow mobiles, tracked vehicles and horse drawn slays buzzing about. There is plenty of places to eat and lots of entertainment. The swimming pool is super fun and should not be missed, waving to people on the chair lift while sitting in the outdoor outdoor hot tub is fun not to mention the adult only water slide. There is also Ice skating and a pool hall.

Third summer visit. Brilliant car free resort with some amazing mountain views. Lots to do with teenage boys in the resort but also nearby Morzine and les Gets (great new summer sledge there). Lovely restaurants (booking necessary) and kids can safely hang out in the evening playing football or beach volley with other kids. Perfect for downhill mountain bike. We wanted to try the new electric scooter tours but the whole week was already booked up.

Avoriaz is great. For families it is almost unrivalled I'd say.
Having no traffic in the town centre is wonderful, although of course it does come with the (minor) inconvenience of having to trudge everywhere through various depths of snow.
The horse drawn sleds are lovely but they are expensive so unlikely that you'll use them a lot.
The Portes du Soleil is amazing BUT it's not very high so you really need a good snow year!

We had an incredible Christmas break in Avoriaz. The festive ambiance, car-free resort, and family-friendly activities made it an outstanding experience. We highly recommend it.

Had an amazing trip with some friends, only issue is the large number of people in this resort, a 30 minute wait time to board a ski lift wasnt to our enjoyment. A lack of services to commend for the number of residents is to notice all the same

A great vehicle free resort a couple of hours away from Geneva airport.
I recommend the Port de Soleil pass & you can access posted for miles & over to Switzerland.

Find a better ski resort. Close to Geneva, good altitude, so snow sure, great variety of accommodation. Great runs. What's not to like.
Dick Sloan — Google review
It's a high ski resort so
the rooms are small and very basic
The restaurants supermarkets and takeaways and other shops + pharmacies are incredibly expensive
Just paid 10euros for a large beer, under a pint
Fondue was 52 euros for 2
Most food and consumables are double UK prices
After all that, we had constant snow skiing is good . It was very busy, and at times the occasional 15 - 20-minute queue for a lift which can we worked around if you know where you're going.
The Olympic Museum is a lavish museum dedicated to the history of the Olympic Games. It features interactive displays, temporary themed exhibitions, and site-specific sculptural works. The museum is located next to the headquarters of the International Olympic Committee.
Impromptu day trip to Lausanne from Geneva and we visited the Olympic Museum, which is timely. It was informative and had excellent displays of past Olympic events, athletes, medals, etc. There were lots of interactive activities & we especially enjoyed the exercises to test our balance and coordination. The outside was well maintained garden with architectural art and track.

Definitely worth going when you are in Lausanne. So much great information and history. The nurse I’m is beautiful and right by the lake. It has a gift store and a wonderful restaurant for lunch and brunch.
If you go in the spring, do not miss the beautiful magnolia trees, cherry blossoms and spring flowers.

No words can truly express my happiness when I got here. As an Olympic fan, coming close to everything I have always watched on TV was jaw dropping. I was new to the city but traveling from Zurich to Lausanne to see this was completely worth it and the location was easily accessible by bus. Pure love 🙏🏾

I loved this museum!!! The temporary Paris 2024 Marathon was extraordinary as it detailed the history of marathons and was overall very inspiring. The free audio guides explained the permanent exhibit about the history of the Olympics very well. Walking through the gardens outside and seeing the statues was wonderful too. Lausanne is a beautiful city. I would recommend everyone to come here.

The Olympic Museum is a must visit if you're in Lausanne. They also have some fun interactive games near the end. It is in the lower ground floor.

Fantastic multi-media exhibits with fascinating background on the Olympics games history and rules. Also fun memorabilia like they torches and costumes from the shows. Something for everyone, whether you’re a sports/Olympics fan or not. It’s also right on the river so very convenient to get to. It is free with the Swiss Rail Pass but I would have paid to go in.

Just a perfect place for Olympic history and current affairs. So much to learn how Olympics started and who was the pioneer. Loved the stories about athletes, trophy, games, gears, clothing and medals. Costing around 20 francs and it took us around 2 hours to explore. Must see when in Lausanne.

The museum is truly an unforgettable experience for all sports enthusiasts.

Worth the entrance. Interactive and thoughtful displays on the history of the Olympics and a lot of regional source material. Very impressed by the flow and activities. The only questionable gap was the Paralympic Games and the lack of discussion around this area.
The cathedral of Lausanne, built in the Gothic style in the 12th century, is a masterpiece of ecclesiastical art. It towers above Lake Geneva and is considered one of Switzerland's most beautiful churches. Its ornate painted portal, belfry, and rose window are some of its most striking features. Restoration and construction continue to this day.
A must visit in Lausanne considering it’s free entry. An ancient church with a grand atmosphere. There is a counter in the church and you can make a payment of chf 5 to use the staircase up to the rooftop where the bell is and strike the bell. There is a panoramic view at the rooftop as well! Breathe taking view.

Amazing architecture. Incredible stained glass. Most of the building is open to visit. Nice outside picnic area with an amazing panoramic view of the city and lake.
Short but steep climb from the main street. If you like old buildings and stained glass, it's well worth the visit.

Gothic style cathedral with fascinating stained glasses and beautiful architecture. They also have a free guided tour of the cathedral at certain timings. We went on a weekday and we were the only ones yet the guide was sweet enough to take us around and explain everything in detail. You can literally see the various timings(centuries) the cathedral was remodelled. Before visiting, just check if there is any organ concert is scheduled on the day. If so, you're in for a treat.

Very lovely place to visit. Great atmosphere with an over a millennium of history. It also has a fairly new organ designed by a famous Italian car designer.

Catherine Hunt — Google review
Definitely a must visit if you find yourself in Lausanne. The steep uphill walk is definitely not suitable to those with leg problems. But if you can afford to walk up there, visit this cathedral.
The decoration style is simple yet so majestic with the stained glass being so deep in colours and so meaningful it its designs. On one side, you have stained glass telling the story of Switzerland. On the other side, the stained glass tells the story of Christianity. And when you walk toward the end of the cathedral, there is a big rose shaped stained glass which will bless you with its beauty and peacefulness. You don't have to be a Christian to appreciate this.
Be sure to stop by and look at the scenery outside of the balcony by the cathedral too. The view from above will give you the refreshing feeling you need.
Ornwara Tritrakarn — Google review
A mesmerizing masterpiece. Its soaring ceilings, intricate stained glass, and serene ambiance create an awe-inspiring atmosphere. Don't miss the breathtaking rose window and the panoramic view from the tower. The pipe organ is also also an interesting discovery.

Beatiful old Cathedral with mosaic windows and possibility to walk up to the tower for a small fee. We were pleased to see this interesting historical building. There are about 220 steps to go to its top and enjoy the "birds view" of Lausanne and the lake. Strongly recommended also for families

Beautiful cathedral. Worth a visit. Often they have concerts at night. During the day you can often catch someone practicing the organ. If it is a beautiful day get a ticket to climb the stairs and go see the views from the top and also you can see where the guet (“cryer”)stays at night. The guet has been calling out the hours from 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., 365 days a year from the tower of the cathedral. It is at least a 600 year-old tradition.

The Fondation Pierre Gianadda is a cultural venue nestled amidst ancient Roman ruins that showcases classical music concerts and art exhibitions. The renowned gallery boasts an impressive collection of artwork by celebrated artists such as Van Gogh, Cezanne, and Picasso. Visitors can also explore the sculpture garden featuring unique sculptures by Henry Moore, Niki de Saint Phalle, and Cesar's Le Sein (The Breast).
The museum is not big, but has such an eclectic variety of collections that's its a very entertaining way to pass an hour - no matter what you're interested in.
There's a potted collection of roman artifacts, early cars, contemporary sculpture and decorative arts. The Cafe in the sculpture garden is a great place for a leisurely aperitif or on a sunny day.
The history of Roman Martigny is well explained in French and German, but most other signage is in French only.
Graham Barry — Google review
Went to visit the museum to see the exhibition of the magnificent paintings from Joseph Turner. The paintings are impressive, but personally, i found they were presented a bit squeezed in the corridors. More justice would be done by having them more space generously displayed.
In the basement, the museum has a permanent exhibition of historic cars, some quite unique models of swiss manufacturers that can not be found anywhere else.
The museum has a nice outdoor park with a large variety of different trees that are all supported by a plate indicating their name. Further in the park there are interesting schulptures on display.
In a corner of the park is a small restaurant that offers good food for reasonable prices.
A good place to go to for a days outing.

Very nice museum, small but cute. There is an exhibition that changes time to time, and two areas dedicated to the main characters of the museum. There is also one area with the cars of the beginning of 20th century. There are 2 cafeterias, one indoor, very cute (like a step back in time), and one outside in the garden, where it is really pleasant to sit and enjoy the park and the weather. The park is also interesting, with pieces of art of various artists placed here and there. Suggested.

Unusual and fabulous art, history and automobile museum under one roof, plus a world class sculpture garden and Roman ruins! The museum features excellent temporary art exhibitions (Caillebotte was a revelation!), gorgeous vintage Mercedes, Bugatti and Swiss autos, and interesting Roman coins, statues and temple remnants. The outdoor sculptures by Brancusi, Rodin, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jean Dubuffet, etc. are beautifully placed in the large, peaceful garden. And the Roman ruins are a wonderful bonus. Highly recommended!

Great new exhibition since February on the Swiss painter Anker. The focus is on his incredible rendering of children, Anker being arguably one of the best painters of children, of all times.
And, as usual, this museum has numerous other aspects to show, including the best Car Museum of Switzerland in the underground, the best Statue Museum of Switzerland in the attending park, a small exhibition on Da Vinci drawings, etc.

Fabulous sculpture park in a beautiful mountain setting. Worth the visit if just for the permanent collection of sculptures and cars. The temporary exhibits are always of the highest caliber. In Summer-Fall 2018 it was a Soulages retrospective, simply wonderful. The little restaurant is nice, but 10 min walk and you're in the center of Martigny with a good choice of restaurants and bakeries. Easy access by train or car, only 1h30 from Geneva. Recommended.

Great place to enjoy sculptures outdoors. Some Roman ruins are also on site. Be sure to stop at night to see the sculptures under a different light.
The exhibits indoor vary by season. Very nice copper sculptures are part of the permanent exhibit. You can find also a small shop with book, mugs and various souvenirs to take home.
The Freddie Mercury Memorial statue is a shrine to all the fans who visit it. It is a bronze sculpture placed on the lakeside promenade in Montreux, Switzerland. The statue depicts Freddie Mercury, lead singer of the legendary rock group Queen, and is one of the most popular things to do in Montreux.
A place to visit! It's incredible the constant flow of people taking pictures and try to be close to his statue.. and of course, i did the same :)

A great place to stop by if you are a lover of Queen. I am sure this place gets a lot of attention during his birthday, and also his final day.
The man has made a huge impact on the world, and it can be seen by all this fans.
Swing by the old studio to get a feel for how things were done back then. Located inside the casino now.

It's true that Montreux can get quite crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons, and popular attractions like the Freddie Mercury statue can draw large crowds. Freddie Mercury's connection to Montreux is well-known, and the statue is a fitting tribute to his time spent in the town.
The quote he mentioned, "If you want peace of soul, come to Montreux," reflects the serene and tranquil atmosphere that Montreux offers, despite the occasional crowds. It's a place where visitors can find a sense of calm and relaxation, surrounded by the beauty of Lake Geneva and the mountains.
While it's understandable that the crowds can sometimes detract from the peacefulness of Montreux, taking a moment to appreciate the beauty and history of the town can help rekindle that sense of tranquility that Freddie Mercury found so appealing.

It's a statue alright! Interestingly enough, I was able to see it during a weekend celebration leading to his birthday, so many people were around. Unfortunately, the first and best set of pics (I took) were not backed up in my photos, so I had my husband text me one, and we went back to take some more. Nothing beat the evening shots I had the first time though.

Being a Queen fan, this was a must see while traveling from Switzerland to the Burgundy region of France. The Freddie Mercury statue is on the shore of Lake Geneva in Montreaux, a short distance from the Montreaux Casino (the Deep Purple song Smoke On The Water).

This is a public bronze statue of Freddie Mercury along the Montreux boardwalk. It's always surrounded by people so avoid visiting on a Saturday or any time midday if you want easy access to a photo. You also might enjoy reading through some of the fan mail at the foot of the statue.

Yes, it's only a statue, meaning: nothing much to do but to snap a picture, but if you love Freddie/Queen, it's sooo worth stopping by. There is something about being in the same places (Montreaux) an amazing artist like him has been that makes it such a moving experience. All the better to do it while enjoying a lovely walk next to a lake with beautiful views!

Chillon Castle is a 13th-century fortress located on the shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland. The castle is well known for its beautiful lakeside promenade, which makes it a popular tourist destination.
I recently had the opportunity to visit Chillon Castle and it was an incredible experience. The castle itself is absolutely breathtaking, with its stunning location on the shores of Lake Geneva and its beautifully preserved medieval architecture. The tour guides were knowledgeable and provided a wealth of information about the history of the castle and the people who lived there. I was especially impressed by the audio guide, which allowed me to learn even more about the castle and its history at my own pace. The castle's location on the lake made for some breathtaking views and the gardens were a lovely spot to relax and take in the scenery. Overall, my visit to Chillon Castle was a highlight of my trip to Switzerland and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

The castle is good for a quick evening visit. Takes about 1.5-2 hours roughly to study the captions in great detail and know a bit about the history and the background. The access is easy. There's a boat dock and the railway line that connects the station of Montreux is close by. They do have an entry fee. Some places have access restricted to visitors. You can choose to have an audio guide.

Such a beautiful castle. You admire how it is preserved from the ancient years. You can see the transformation if it across the years from room to room. If you follow the recommended plan of the visit, you can see everything, but you are not limited only to this. You can follow your own path and you will always arrive to main open plaza of the castle. The castle has a great view to the Leman lake and it’s so interesting to see how the regions and borders between countries have changed across the years. A beautiful activity for your weekend or free time.

Incredible! Fantastic! Unexpected wonder! Honestly I could not say anything bad about this place especially considering this was a 1 day stopover for us and it was a place I had found online as a recommendation through Social Media. I was not expecting much but as we approached along the walkway on the beach you could see why this has been suggested. Immediately you can see how well preserved this castle is from the moats and walls around the outside and then the rooms, towers and even dungeons on the inside. If you have the time, I would recommend the audio tour to really get an understanding of the castle and its history.

Would visit again and again! The castle is one of the best preserved medieval castles having been extensively studied and preserved. You can buy tickets online or in person at the gate. Depending on when you're visiting you're much better off buying ahead. We visited a couple of hours before they closed and didn't feel rushed exploring the castle. You'll get to visit the dungeons, tower keep, living areas, and even the latrines (which shockingly after ~700 years still smell...used). The brochure guide comes in many languages and is extremely helpful for appreciation. There is a gift shop inside and one outside, each with different items. Staff is friendly and speaks English.

It feels like being transported back to the Middle Ages, and whether inside or outside the castle, it's truly astonishing. However, the underground areas gave me a slightly eerie feeling, not because they're bad, but because they're so authentic, making you feel like you're reliving that historical period. The immersive experience is incredibly strong! I recommend renting an audio guide to fully appreciate the charm of the castle.

Beautiful castle from the outside but we did not have a chance to visit. However, we did eat at Cafe Byron (great experience and food!) where I burned myself on the very hot metal barrier. They are aware of the danger as children have also done the same but it is up to the castle to fix. They could easily add wood on top of the metal- I hope they do so no one else gets hurt...

Gorgeous medieval castle on the Geneva lake with beautiful views. There is a museum inside with various exhibitions and lots to see and learn. It is famously linked to an epic poem by Byron named "the prisoner of Chillon". There is a great café just next to the castle and a souvenir shop. There are lots of benches to sit around and enjoy the view and a perfectly manicured garden all around the castle.

Fascinating to see the restored work done through the centuries, 1100s forward. So amazing to be able to walk through a maze of courtyards, covered bridges and rooms while experiencing the historical presence of the structure.
Accompanying furnishings are thoughtfully curated and arranged, complemented by painted walls from appropriate periods in history.
I didn't get an eerie feeling (although I skipped the dungeon and crypt), as I have before when visiting such a structure. Rather, I felt as if I could possibly have lived there during that time period!

Another nice castle to look around. Parking is a bit of a pain but we figured it out. Interesting things to see within and great views around. The climb to the top of the main tower was a particular highlight. One weird thing was their reluctance to sell us a family ticket as we only had one chid - never ever had that before!

Located by the lake, Chillon Castle should be on your list of places to visit when in Montreux not only for its historical significance but also for the views of Montreux.
The perfect time to visit would be when the weather is sunny. This ensures that the temperature in the castle is not too cold and you could get a picturesque image by the lake.
The Montreux Riveria card which most hotels provide to their guests gives you 50% off the entrance fare.
For those who want to learn about the historical and cultural significance of the castle in detail, an audio guide is available. If you decide not to opt for the audio guide, there are also description of each rooms on the walls which you could read.

A brilliant construction on the Lake Geneva with a spectacular view. The attention to detail is mind blowing. This castle has a lot of history dating back the mediaeval times. We got a free entry through the swiss travel pass so we checked it out while we were on Montreux. It was a beautiful building with lots of chambers, rooms, towers and hidden secret compartments and doors. They also have a restaurant by the castle which is quite convenient. We can also walk along the lake from the castle which has a breathtaking view. The entire tour has a guided tour or a audio guide to know about the history.

Good to visit earlier to avoid crowds.
Glacier 3000 is a year-round resort offering skiing, hiking, and various attractions. A 15-minute cable car ride takes visitors to the peak at 3,000 meters above sea level. The top features the Peak Walk suspension bridge connecting two mountain peaks, an alpine coaster for an exhilarating descent, and Restaurant Botta serving Swiss mountain cuisine with stunning views of the Alps. The breathtaking scenery includes snow-covered Swiss mountains and mesmerizing views over the Alps.
Loved it. Took a tour here from Get Your Guide app and it was well organised. Winding road to the car park at col du Pillon which is about 2.5 hrs away from Geneva.
Took the cable car up to the peak where there is a restaurant, souvenir shop, fun park and some final stairs to the suspension bridge. Amazing views and well worth the visit.

Wonderful breathtaking views near the clouds! I would only go when it is safe and with some clouds for dramatic / memorable views and photos. Every activity on the glacier was fun, including the alpine coaster and the ski lift that take you to the glacier.

Breathtaking views! Amazing experience. Unfortunately the peak bridge was closed due to snow removal but I did the Glacier walk and it is incredible. Around 50 min walk and at the end you are rewarded with an even more incredible view and nice rock formation. There's a restaurant at the end of the walk and after you need to return all the way back

Splendid place!
A majestic glacier, brilliantly white and with soft rounded shapes. And Glacier 3000 can offer more than just a suspension bridge and incredible views: the glacier area is extremely diverse and guarantees a wide range of sporting activities for those who want to let off steam. Whether it's skiing, freestyle or freeride, cross-country skiing or hiking: here, everyone will find the vacation they want.
24 4000 meter peaks at a glance: the viewpoint at 3000 meters, just a stone's throw from the suspension bridge, offers an indescribable view of the most beautiful peaks of the Alps.

Spectacular skiing. I visited after a day of snow and the powder off-piste was incredible. There are two fabulous runs of about 8 km each and the views over the Alps are mesmerizing. There is a tunnel marked "Black Wall" that offers a uniquely crazy experience. A long tunnel through the mountain followed by a sharp drop. I have been skiing in Switzerland for ten years or more and I can't believe it took me so long to discover Glacier 3000. Having the Magic Pass has sure opened up some new places for me to explore!

We had a great visit in June. The temperature at the top was around 0°C/32°F. The cable cars to the top are very smooth. The top has incredible views however it is dependent on visibility so may want to verify weather prior to going. I use the MeteoSwiss app for weather and visibility while in Switzerland.

Incredible experience ! Breathtaking views from above! Everything is super safe! Not scary at all, except that wind 😮. Just keep your glasses, hats or other things which can be blown off by the wind and enjoy the views! 🤩

Amazing location when the weather is good ... check the local weather before so that you get the best opportunity. Easy to park and great ride up in the two cable cars to the top. The Peak Walk bridge provides an amazing view. The walk is amazing. Cafè at the top is busy and not the best, but doesn't spoil an amazing day. Don't pay overinflated prices on some tourist website, go direct to the Glacier 3000 site and book for 85 CHF per person for the experience.

Was our first visit here. The view from the top is worth it. They have a nice deck on top for relaxing and having something to eat/drink. Also there is a roller-coaster ride which is definitely to try. Families with younger kids 6yr and below would recommend to select a few ride rather than doing everything as it is exhausting. Our kids slept on the way down.

Exceptional ski resort. It feels very authentic up there. That would be a usual thing to see some wild animals not far from slopes which helps the overall perception of true mountain experience. The resort is very well equipped with some spectacular places for lunch. All in all quite amazing!

It is a very beautiful and spectacular place that offers visitors a breathtaking view of the snow-covered Swiss mountains. The cable car ride is nice and walking on the suspension bridge is amazing! The 107m long and 80cm wide bridge is the only suspension bridge in the world that links two mountain peaks. It is called Peak Walk by Tissot. It is an experience not to miss! We could spend the whole day there. Do not miss the ski lift ride too. It is certainly a must-visit place!

To avoid at all cost during summer, except if you need to cool off when the temperature around Lake Geneva is approaching 40 degrees. The cable car is a rip off, the glacier is ugly and restaurants are serving fast food at outrageous prices.
Sebastian Reiz — Google review
This is a good day trip from Geneva to see the mountains. There are good views from the top where you can see France, Germany, and Switzerland. In the summer this destination highlights the effects of climate change with the melting glacier and running water. The views are spectacular from the top. I would recommend only visiting in the winter
Kat J — Google review
Very cool place to visit. Sadly when I was there I could do the sledding but it was still a really nice view. You must take a cable car to the top and it cost about 80 usd and 22 min ride. If you want to see snow and an amazing view then it's most definitely worth it.
Scott Maynard — Google review
Worth a visit if you dint do Grindlewald's First. It was poor weather when we went to "GF" so we can't see any views as it was too cloudy. So we went Glacier 3000 on another day and had a great time on a sunny day. If the Alpine Coaster is opened will be even better. They are opened usually in June during summer. We did the Glacier walk, took the Chairlift besides walking on the Peak Walk. Some sat on plastic boards and slide on the mild slopes too. Swiss Travel Pass gives you 50% off fm retail price. Check it out.

Glacier 3000 is a truly gorgeous place. We did not ski but enjoyed the lift, shops, restaurant and look put bridge! At the shop we picked up several souvenirs as well as a really beautiful watch. At the restaurant we had a cheese plate, prosecco, and coffee. No long lines for either. The bridge and lookout were the highlight. We visited on a Tuesday and it wasn't crowded at all. Definitely recommend.

Wow. Visited here on Sunday. Experienced the Magical views of Swiss alps at Galcier 3000. The views are breathtaking & magical. Peak walk is a mind blowing experience. one should have to go through in their life during their visit to Glacier 3000 Switzerland 🇨🇭. As per their tagline it's "high level experience" suits well. Had a bus ride at 3000M in the snow for 20 min. Amazed by this experience.

Went on a terrible day weather wise. You need to take two gondalas up to about 3000m. To get to the dog sled rides, you have to take another chair lift down. The dog sled rides were about 3min long, so fairly expensive,but I've crossed it off my to do list. The peak walk was cool, over a metal suspension bridge which felt safe and sturdy. You do feel high up though. The restaurant had some good pasta meals which were priced around 20CHF.
La Maison du Gruyère is a renowned cheese factory that offers an immersive experience for food enthusiasts and cheese lovers. The factory provides guided tours with audio guides, allowing visitors to witness master cheesemakers at work and learn about the traditional cheese-making process. Guests can explore a museum, savor delectable dishes at the on-site restaurant, and browse through a variety of cheese-related products at the gift shop.
Very interesting and educational tour of the cheese factory! You will be given an audio guide and 3 slices of aged cheeses to try. I went to the restaurant after the tour and ordered their rosti and cheese fondue! There is also a shop where you can purchase souvenirs. The staff are friendly!

Fantastic!
We love Gruyère cheese back home, so making a trip out here was a kind of pilgrimage for us. The tour is somewhat short, though a good enough length to make you more fully appreciate the cheese.
The tour ticket comes with a sampler of Gruyère cheese at three different ages: 6, 9, and 12 months. You also get views of real cheese production from above. It's hypnotic, in a way, and we watched longer than most other guests as the employees below drained a vat of milk.
The gift shop has a few Gruyère souvenirs, but for the most part contained generic Switzerland souvenirs. Unable to take fresh cheese back home overseas, we settled for a cap and keychain.
The real highlight was the restaurant! We ordered risotto and quiche. I've never had either of these dishes made with Gruyère cheese and they blew me away! The risotto was something I never would have considered a candidate for the cheese, and the quiche was perfectly fluffy and light.
As an enthusiastic home cook, I left inspired, and can't wait to get back home and experiment more with the cheese I've loved for 30 years!
Will Maynard — Google review
This is a good destination to stop at if you are already in Gruyère. This is THE cheese location of Switzerland so it is a must see. However it is a quite unremarkable destination. There is a quick audio guide that takes you around giving the backstory on grass. You can see some of the machines that make the cheese however they only run at certain hours of the day.
Kat J — Google review
Adorable cheese factory with a very convenient self guided tour in multiple languages. Included as part of Swiss Travel Pass and a definite must if you are in the area! Cheese is definitely unique to the region and extremely delicious. Due to the herbs eaten my the cows and the level of care applied in manufacturing the cheese it’s of superb marksmanship. Tour also includes a tasting packet of various aged cheeses. Yum!

Very cool visit, only for 7 chf. Visitors get a sample of Gruyères cheese to taste. Interestingly presented history of the cheese and the region. A wide range of languages available in audio guide included in the price. I also like that the visit wasn’t too long- around 40 minutes.

Not expensive but very interesting. They give you samples of their cheese before the tour and it's fun and informative. We were lucky to see the process in real time as they show you how they make cheese. It was fantastic. Definitely go in the morning so you can watch the action. I learned a lot.

Nice place to visit and have a good idea about cheese making and how the cow's produce the milke and how they make the gruyere cheese.
You will see and listen to the story of cheese making in the factory.
Then you can buy a lot of items from the store or have a great food in the restaurant.

Factory visit was OK. Expected a bit more, but maybe it was just my false expectations.
For the restaurant you better book a table in advance. In general- worth visiting if you are somewhere close by, not worth traveling for many hours just to see this.

I liked it! The food was really good and not excessively expensive. There is a souvenir shop and you can buy cheese, visit the museum, and in the morning you can see how they make cheese. Very nice experience overall.

If you are into Cheese, this is a must visit. Please go there before 11 AM so that you can enjoy the Cheese making process. Otherwise it's more like a video documentary and not as exciting. Also do go to the restaurant as it's a cheese lovers delight. Awesome Risotto, Rosti, Fondue and Salads. The Gruyeres train station is right across and the Gruyere castle is a few mins walk. Please note that there are no real vegan options at the restaurant.

Not worth the visit. Skip it.
There seems to be some cheese making but not all the processes was happening. Audio self guided “tour”, there is really not much to see. Gave a small packet of cheese for free.
Food at the restaurant was of good portion and not too bad hence the 2 star. Non-English menu. But unable to make up for the rather rude mannerism of the staff. Unfriendly to tourist, maybe just Asians.
Angi Wong — Google review
Helpful front desk staff. She explained that there are different stages throughout the cheese making process, as we were late, we could only see the last stage where the liquid was being poured into moulds and drain excess water. Arrive earlier to follow the whole process. A small speaker device is provided (English language available) to guide you through the tour. There’s also some bottles with grass/flower smell to fully engage your olfactory.
Restaurant servers were very efficient as food was served in a timely manner. Maria was patient and knowledgeable while she explained the menu to us. Kudos keep up the good work.

As a home cheese maker I loved this tour and the visibility of the process of making on a commercial scale! Great for kids and very interactive and informative. You can see the cheeses aging and they give you a nice little sample. Awesome gift shop and friendly staff, highly recommend and worth the time.

Really great place to visit! For me when you are in Gruyère it is a must! I would recommend to be there about 12:00 already inside to see the process how the cheese is made! It looked great and it is an interesting thing to see. After some knowledge I went to the restaurant. For me it’s a must as well! I got a fondue for one person and it was simply amazing! So if you travel alone no worries they have portions for singles as well! Great experience and very tasty one!

If you are planning on visiting La Maison du Gruyère from Zurich by train make sure to get up early as they only do the cheese making In the morning. We got the for 2:00 pm and we had an audio tour and three different ages of cheese to try. The gift shop had a large variety of items but I seemed to be impressed with the selection of Ricola. After we walked up the hill to the castle/little town!
Alycia Phylis — Google review
Do visit if you are interested in cheese and how it’s made. I believe the cheese that is made here is named after the area and is also one of the cheeses used in Fondue. They give you a sample if you pay for the tour, but you can always buy more from the gift shop.
You should also drop by the Castle and the museam. There are several restaurants and shop for a nice meal and some shopping.
Overall an excellent place to spend a quiet idyllic weekend.

It was my first place where make cheese. I like it. There is an audio guide, small package with cheese for tasting, interesting history. It was quick but interesting.

La Maison du Gruyère offers an exceptional journey into the world of cheese-making, combining education, observation, and delightful culinary experiences. From the moment I entered, I was greeted by the inviting aroma of cheese and the warmth of the staff, setting the tone for a memorable visit.
The tour of the cheese factory is both enlightening and fascinating. It provides a comprehensive look at how cheese is produced, from the initial stages to the final product. The opportunity to take photographs of the cheese cellar, where wheels of cheese are carefully aged for up to 12 months, is a unique experience that cheese enthusiasts will particularly appreciate.
Witnessing the production process firsthand is a rare treat. The transparency and openness of the facility allow visitors to gain a real sense of the craftsmanship and dedication that goes into every wheel of cheese. It's an educational experience that's as enjoyable as it is informative.
The staff at La Maison du Gruyère deserves special mention for their friendliness and expertise. They enhance the experience by sharing their knowledge and passion for cheese-making.
The highlight for many, myself included, is the cheese restaurant located within the facility. The fondue and Rösti I tried there were simply delicious, embodying the rich flavors and traditions of Swiss cuisine. The restaurant's ambiance, combined with the quality of the food, makes it a perfect way to conclude the visit.
Overall, La Maison du Gruyère is a must-visit for anyone interested in the art of cheese-making, Swiss culture, or simply looking for a unique and tasty experience. The blend of education, observation, and culinary delight makes it a standout attraction.

The Creux du Van, a large rocky formation located about 14km east of Motiers in a natural reserve, is an incredible sight to behold. The crescent-moon shaped wall was formed by glacial erosion and rises 440m above the surrounding countryside. A short walk leads visitors to the breathtaking abyss which measures over 1km long.
Creux du Van is an amazing place for a low altitude hike in the Western part of Switzerland.
The hike around the formation is relatively easy and can be done from end of March.
The hike is approximately 12km and has elevation gain of 770 meters.
It can be completed with a good overall fitness level. I suggest to take nordic sticks with you.
Definetly a musst If you would like to enjoy the nature and the scenic view!

You can hike from the city of Noiraigue. Depending on how fit you are it will take more or less time. I needed about an hour and a half to reach the top (and the trail is steep!) but it is absolutely worth it. It is a great place to visit and I will certainly go again someday! If you are not that fit I am afraid this is not the place for you.
Alejandro Montiel — Google review
Great view but hard trail to hike up
How to get there?
If you take public transportation, you get off at railway station: Noiraigue. The way up: you will turn left, then right, then you follow the signs to sightsee spot: Le Soliat. That are two paths upwards: I took the right side one, it is relatively long, but not so steep. Be careful that the way up is very nature, you will need good hiking shoes!
Plan more time if you have kids with you. It took us 3 hours to up, and 2 hours downhill. The path is quite rough and tough, I warned you 😂
If you drive there, it might drive up to the restaurant Le Soliat. Please call them to verify. I would recommend this way for my next visit.
Crusoe Whu — Google review
The easiest way to see it is to drive up to the parking of the restaurant Le Soliat. The cliff is then at a 3 min walk though a field.
I do recommended that you combine this sightseeing with a walk, as the cliff as sole attraction (depending on how long you had to drive to get there) is not THAT spectacular. For this, stop at a parking about 2 km before you arrive at the site and walk the rest of the way.
You are in a relatively remote area so take a few provisions with you :)
Good thing to know: everything is free of charge (parking & sightseeing)!

Perfect hiking from boudry with les gorges de l areuse then you take the parking of the hotel de la truite then after the forest on the left then right to follow the concrete road to get on top of the plato, the view is amazing and it take me almost 4 hours

Great hike! We went when there was a lot of snow. Unfortunately we couldn’t hike all the way to the top because of fog. It was still a beautiful hike!
Gruyeres Castle, a 13th-century fortress located on a hilltop, offers visitors the chance to see ornate rooms filled with period furniture and tapestries. The castle has a multimedia history show that provides insight into its past and temporary exhibitions that showcase modern art. After being destroyed in a fire in 1493, the castle was rebuilt by the 19 various counts of Gruyeres who controlled Sarine Valley from the 11th until the 16th century.
One of the most beautiful castles I had ever seen! The spectacular view of the snow mountain gives you inner peace! Enjoy!

Great experience. When most think of Gruyères, cheese is the first thing that comes to mind, but the chateau here is historic, detailed, and fair priced. It's a smaller chateau, but loaded with history. The views are stunning and the tour itself takes about an hour. It's self guided, but each room has a detailed description of what the room was used for. Highly recommend!

We came to explore Gruyere Village and we decided to first visit the castle. along the way and at the top floor there were amazing views of the local area.

Definitely a highlight of our trip to experience this.

This is a very cool place to walk around. I didn’t know there was an entire plaza until I entered, I thought I was just going to the castle!
I was there on a Sunday afternoon and it was VERY busy, so I would definitely recommend going during the week if possible. There are a lot of cool shops, lots to eat and drink, and amazing views! The castle garden was closed since it was January but I hear that is a big attraction as well.

Beautiful piece of history. The work and craftsmanship needed for this castle is amazing. There was much thought and design put into each room, nook and cranny.
The views from the balconies and windows are breathtaking. You can see the vast mountains on one side and the flowing valleys on the other side.
This is at least an hour tour of the castle and maybe another 45 minutes for the outside grounds. Walking the town of Gruyères can be another couple of hours.
I highly recommend visiting here.

Adorable castle on the hilltop. I recommend driving and parking in one of the lots at the bottom of the hill. It's a short walk up to the small village with a cobblestone street and a number of restaurants and small shops. The Castle is at the top of the hill, you can't miss it. Absolutely beautiful views and lovely architecture. We walked through the whole castle in 40 minutes (though we were in a bit of a rush). Definitely recommend a visit.

My visit to Château de Gruyères was like stepping into a page from a fairy tale. This stunning chateau, nestled in a charming medieval village, offers a picturesque and enchanting experience that is both dreamlike and awe-inspiring.
The beauty of the chateau is matched by its excellent state of preservation. Every detail, from the architecture to the interior decor, is well-maintained, reflecting a deep respect for its historical significance. The museum within the chateau is a treasure trove, offering insightful glimpses into the past and showcasing a variety of artifacts that tell the story of this magnificent place.
Walking through Château de Gruyères is a journey back in time. The ambiance is serene and majestic, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in the history and beauty of the surroundings. The chateau and its surroundings are so beautifully preserved and presented that they create a truly awesome experience.
I would highly recommend Château de Gruyères to anyone looking for a cultural and historical adventure in a setting that seems to have leapt out of a storybook. Whether you are a history buff, a lover of architecture, or just someone seeking a unique and memorable experience, Château de Gruyères will not disappoint.

It's a very family-friendly place with short wandern rputes available, but not as big as I expected. You could walk around the lake in five minutes..
But overall, the place is really beautiful. Inclusive in the price is the boat trip, although they did not have a clear schedule (it was written every 15 minutes, we waited far longer than 30 mins amd the boat-driver was nowhere ro. be seen amd we gave up in the end).
We didnt try the restaurant and only the imbiss, the food. was okay.

A beautiful place, with the forest trail going to the lake, I like it much, though it is hard for me to walk that far but I still appreciate the beauty. Some were complaining about the Chf 10.- Entrance Fee, (without the boat ride), for me, it is just worth it, for the maintenance of the place. You want a beautiful backdrop for your profile pictures, or as your Cover Photo...here you'll enjoy taking a snap everywhere. I recommend this place for your bucket list.

Beautiful, bright blue crystal clear lake even on a cloudy day. Though boat ride was only ok. There was no interaction with the boat captain; we were expecting some commentary while we waded through the lake. Nice round-trip nature walking trail.

Worth visiting as the surrounding is so beautiful. Its crystal clear water and you can enjoy watching trout fish swimming. You also can enjoy free boat ride. love the scenery and the weather as well. Take a cup of coffee at cafe nearby and enjoy the scenery. Free wash room also provided.

View is breathtaking, like a blue/green jade, presenting mesmerising color from different angles.
But didn’t expect it requires ticket to enter, and it’s 12chf for adult. The lake/park is quite small though. Pics were taken on 1st weekend of May

Not a place wich I would visit again. We've been expecting more. I think it's better to visit it when the weather is better. There is a lake, playground, river and beautiful view. It's good to spend time with family and friends there.

It's accessible by bus 230. Ticket is 9 francs. The counter closed at 5pm but people can still visit till 8.30pm by buying from ticket machine. After the gate, take the asphalt road to the lake. The scenery is peaceful and calming. There are many benches around the lake and peoples, couples like to sit there and just enjoy the lake's calmness. The water is crystal clear and you can see big fishes. Recommended to visit.

This lake, and the area is very beautiful.
Amazing program for the hole family.
Wooden Playground for the children ( not only them, the Balance Circle is very good play for all). 😉
The toilet is also very nice and clean!
if you want to grill, build a fire, or cook, several suitable places have been created. (if I remember correctly, 5 volts minimum). you can't swim or go boating in the lake, you can't go in at all.

Very beautiful place, but I think the entrance fee is a bit too much from my perspective. You have to consider parking costs on top of it. It’s for sure well maintained and the views are magnificent, but still a bit overpriced.

Lovely nature and crystal clear blue lake. You could see the fish swimming. You may queue for a boat-ride that bring you around the lake. There is a story behind the lake. It was told that a young maiden was in love with a shepherd but he dies in an accident.

The Zytglogge is a landmark in Bern, Switzerland that was used as the citys western gate from the 12th century until 1530. It is now home to an astronomical clock and a rotating parade of figurines. The tower is a popular tourist attraction that is seen as an important part of Bern's culture.
If you have the time and budget I highly recommend booking the Clock Tower / Zytglogge tour with the Tourist Information Center at Bern train station. The tour is one hour long and the guide times it so that the group is directly at the mechanisms at the turn of the hour to see exactly how all those wheels and clogs work together to produce the delightful display of dancing figurines witnessed outside.

The Zytglogge is a historic clock tower located in the old town of Bern, Switzerland. Dating back to the early 13th century, it has served various purposes over the centuries, including as a guard tower, prison, clock tower, and civic memorial. The Zytglogge features an astronomical clock with moving figurines that perform a daily show. It's one of Bern's most iconic landmarks and a symbol of the city's medieval heritage. The tower is open to visitors, who can climb to the top for panoramic views of Bern's old town and surrounding area.

It’s interesting to consider the engineering required to build this clock, especially hundreds of years ago. That being said, other than being beautiful to look at, the mechanical features aren’t all that impressive. We waited for 15-20 minutes to see it in action and were pretty disappointed after reading such rave reviews

Exploring the old town in Bern was just lovely. This historical clock tower is from the 13th century! It was a prison before. If you walk on one of the main market streets (near the Einstein Museum) you will pass by.

A majestic clock tower right smack in the middle of the Old Town, with busy traffic passing through it. Taking pictures with the tower is a must, though from what we heard there are specific tours that you can take to view inside of the tour so that's a must.
Unfortunately we only found out after we left Bern so that's a bummer. Still quite a grand looking building.

This is a beautiful clock on the side of a building near a fountain statue. It's beautiful and chimes each quarter hour, and it has a movable display. Normally there seems to be a crowd forming to take photos and video but do be aware this is a roadway with cars, bicycles etc who do not necessarily pay attention to random people looking at a clock.

Zytglogge is a true masterpiece of Swiss engineering and history. The intricate details of the clock's mechanisms are awe-inspiring, and its chimes never fail to captivate both locals and tourists. The charming square it resides in adds to the overall ambiance, making it a must-see landmark that beautifully encapsulates Bern's rich heritage.

Amazing place to see. Tours can be self-guided on your phone. Rich, historical, and inviting. I took pictures and bought a watercolour.
Bern Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is renowned for its arcaded walkways, fountains, and Switzerland's tallest cathedral. This captivating area holds the lesser-known fact that Albert Einstein once resided here with his spouse in a third-floor apartment, which has now been transformed into a museum showcasing an authentic replica of the renowned physicist's home.
A single word is needed here: Lovely. One of the best towns in Switzerland, possibly in the central Europe. YOU DO WANNA VISIT BERN, trust me.

The capital of Switzerland has a very atmospheric and cultural atmosphere. I want to feel the local tranquil atmosphere here. The ancient city is also very amazing. 👍It doesn’t feel like the capital. Walking here and enjoying the shopping experience It’s a good time in the morning. 👍The nearby scenery is also very impressive. There are also many scenic spots that you can go for a walk. It’s a very distinctive capital. It’s a pity that it was cloudy when I went to Bern that day, but I think I’ll save it for the next time I go to Bern. Come and enjoy this beautiful ancient city again if you have the opportunity!👍👍

Overall the city was beautiful. I went on a Monday and many shops are closed that day. The good news was, my guess, fewer people the bad news is there were some great shops that had displays that could not purchase. My guess is 50% of the shops or greater was closed. I truly enjoyed the shops that were open!

The Bern's Old Town is the No.1 Must See Place when you go to Bern. I admit that I had doubts before I came here but then, I fully understood why this old town had become a world's heritage! Its calmness, medieval buildings, streets, fountains, & the beautiful & elegant clock towers, have made this Old Town be possibly the most pretty Historic Town in Switzerland!
Tips: It's easy to get here from the Bern's Station too, just look up & follow one of the clock towers.
(Please note that the picture showed as the caption in Google's UNESCO Von Bern is actually the Zetgloge Clock Tower, which is an ancient landmark from the 13th century.)

Bern being the capital of Switzerland is an ancient city. Has many historical buildings and scenic lookouts. You have to stay within the city limits to enjoy the sites as they are accessible via light rail. Book a hotel near to the city centre and use the light rail and buses to get around. First time visitors get a free pass within the 2 city zones. Rent a car and travel to Zurich and Geneva to enjoy the alps and historic towns. Busy during the summer. The cost of food etc are very expensive here specially being the capital. Good only if you’re into scenery and historical buildings.

Bern's Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the historic center of the capital city of Switzerland. It is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture, charming cobblestone streets, and numerous historical landmarks.
It is situated on a peninsula formed by a bend in the Aare River. The layout of the town has remained largely unchanged since the medieval period. The Old Town is known for its covered arcades (Lauben) which extend for miles and make Bern one of the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe.
A walking tour is the best way to explore Bern's Old Town. You can take a guided tour to learn about the history and significance of various landmarks, or explore at your own pace. Be sure to visit the Zytglogge (Clock Tower), one of Bern's most famous landmarks, to watch the clock's elaborate mechanisms and figures in action as the hour changes. Don't miss the area's selection of chocolate shops. Explore the Swiss Federal Palace, home to the Swiss government, and take a guided tour to learn about the country's political system and history. Visit the Bear Park near the Old Town to see Bern's emblematic animals. Finally, take a stroll along the Aare River for beautiful views of the city and surrounding hills.
Bern's Münster Cathedral is an iconic landmark with an impressive façade and beautiful stained glass windows. Climb the tower for panoramic views of the city. The Einstein Museum, located in the building where Albert Einstein lived while in Bern, offers insight into the famous physicist's life and work. Kramgasse is one of the main streets in the Old Town, lined with shops, cafes, and historic buildings. It leads to the Zytglogge and provides a lively atmosphere. The Old Town is also dotted with colorful and ornate fountains from the Renaissance period, each with its own unique design and history. The Rosengarten (Rose Garden) offers beautiful views of the Old Town and is a great spot to relax and take photos.
The Old Town is best explored on foot, but there are also trams and buses available for easy transport.

The city of Bern is great to visit (as for most Swiss cities I would avoid going there on a Sunday as most shops are closed and some restaurants too). Bern has a beautiful old city center which is easy to get to from one of the many parking places around the center or (of course) by train. Really nice view from the Rosengarten and while you are there it’s nice to walk downstairs to the bridge to have a look at the bears at ‚Bärengraben‘. Beautiful City!

Such a peaceful and quiet town. With loads of iconic old landmarks. Lovely scenery.
The centrally located Restaurant Rosengarten in Bern's beautiful park offers a stunning view of the city's old town from its elevated terrace. It is especially recommended during the winter months for its exceptional fondue experience, enjoyed on the Fondue-Veranda with a private fireplace.
Highly recommend! The view is just absolutely stunning! And the food is tasty (I ordered the cold beef and it’s yummy!). It can be very crowded but the service is great and fast! And it opens on Sunday! If you want the best seat to enjoy the city view you need to make a reservation. If you just want to enjoy the outdoor seating you still get a good view and I didn’t even have to wait to get a seat without making the reservation. I will definitely come back again especially during the sunset time, it would be an amazing experience to enjoy dinner and watch sunset!

Be careful, it's very touristic, so it's better to book your table in advance. Also, the parking lot is too small and there is a high chance of staying without any.
The cuisine is okay, but the service is slow.
The view to Bern is wonderful though. You can also visit the charming park Rosengarten - it's really beautiful and deserves a visit.

We got an iced coffee latte, beer and lemon basil gnocchi. The latte was probably by far the worst coffee I’ve had in Switzerland. It lacked flavor and texture was bad too. The lemon basil gnocchi was amazing though. The sauce is not too creamy with a strong lemon flavor. The garnish on the top is a potato chip. They also give you complimentary rye bread, but it wasn’t heated or had butter/ oil for dipping.
The view was amazing. Supposedly, a lot of the tables with the best views were “reserved”… they weren’t taken by the time we finished so it was very questionable. The staff does their job, but they’re neither happy or angry. Seems like they’re just going through the motions.

I recommend this restaurant if you are looking for dinner with a view! I definitely recommend making a reservation as it is always packed. I tried to reserve a table closest to the city view but was unable to. Totally fine because you can still see the city from far. The food was good, staff was friendly, and price was expensive but expected for the location.
The Harder Kulm observation deck offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding mountains and lakes from an elevated lookout point over 1300 meters high in Interlaken, Switzerland. Visitors can easily reach the site by walking five minutes from the nearest train station or parking nearby and taking the funicular to the top.
This is a fantastic viewpoint for those who want to see Interlaken and the two lakes (Lake Thun and Lake Brienz) from above.
The ticket to the Harder Kulm bahn is cheap, and it's a short ride to the top. It's normally quite crowded because it's a popular tourist attraction. However, it was quite empty when we went there in June 2021 because of COVID-19. We basically had the whole place to ourselves.

We went on the first ascent at 9:10am, and the sun was bright in the sky. It was a beautiful day, and surprisingly hot on the mountain in the middle of November. It was colder in Interlaken than up here. There were few people here this early so I recommend going on the first funicular up. It started getting crowded around 10. I wish there were more funiculars going because we had to wait for 30 minutes before we could go back down. There are several hiking trails but they looked strenuous.

Went here in April, which is supposed to be off season and there were still so many people. The views are absolutely incredible at the top but the train ride up was rammed and hot, 65 people max in the tram meant people were sat and stood like sardines, of course like any tourist destination and obviously being Switzerland the food and drink were very expensive, you weren’t allowed to take your own food either but overall a good experience

This was an excellent experience in Interlarken, and one of the best places to get a crazy good view. It is a bit touristy, but regardless, still an excellent place to visit. The funicular ride up is breathtaking, especially from the back, with the view of the mountains, but it was full to the brim as it was super busy. At the top, however, it can also get a little crowded.
Head straight to the viewpoint as this is why you are up here! It is incredible!!!
There was about a 45 minute wait at the bottom to get up and another 30 minute wait to get back down. Be prepared to spend time stood up!
Price: £32 return with an Interlaken tourist pass, or £38 without. Go when it opens to avoid the crowds!

Would recommend to visit harder kulm as it's the top of interlaken. Went there very early and got in the line before they opened. There were two separate lines, left side of the line for having ticket already while the right side of the line for not having ticket in advance. We went past the people in line to get into the first row on the left side of the line since we had our ticket/pass already. Very very good view, unfortunately during our visit it was a cloudy and rainy day but there were times we got to see good views too. Also would recommend to sit in the front row to be able to feel a little excitement to see a great view as the car ascended/descended upward/downward respectively.

From the Harder Kulm you can enjoy a fantastic view not only on the two lakes that surround Interlaken, the Brienzer and Thun Lake, but also on the amazing Jungfrau region, with its majestic peaks , which are over 4000m high. You can get to the top on foot or by using the Harderbahn. You choose. Be sure to go there on a day with good weather, otherwise you won't get to enjoy the magical view on the top.

Basel Zoo is a large zoo in Switzerland and has a wide variety of animals. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Switzerland and is known for its exotic species.
Fantastic zoo in Basel close to the city centre. Very family friendly and children are allowed to touch some animals. There is feeding of sea lions at 4pm with seats around the pool to watch it.
The zoo is beautifully laid out with lots of different areas for each type of animal.
Has an amazing restaurant and cafe at very reasonable prices.
You can also bring your own food and have a small picnic in some areas but PLEASE make sure you do not feed any animals.
You should allow at least 4 hours so you can enjoy the zoo at a relaxed pace - with young kids you might even spend the whole day there. Definitely worth a visit.

This is an amazing place. I have never seen a rhino :D The Zoo itself looks like a jungle. High grass. Trees and bushes everywhere. I suppose it makes animals feel better - like they're in their natural environment. Once you buy a ticket you get a map of the zoo. It is almost accurate. Paths are ok but not all animals are marked there. However it's not a big inconvenience. We treated it as a surprise. Great place for a family trip, even with a stroller. It took us about 2 hours to see everything.

On an exceptionally hot morning, this beautiful zoo was delightfully cool, with ample shade from the many trees etc. There are so many animals etc. to see, in a comparatively small space - they looked well cared for in attractive surroundings. Lots of places to sit, too. My only minor criticism is that many of the buildings are brutalist in style and lack charm. Easy to reach by bus or tram.

As it was the middle of winter when I visited quite a lot of the bigger animals were hiding in their sleeping quarters, but the birds were very active, preparing their nests for the breeding season.
I loved that so many of the birds were free to fly around in their enclosures or even in the open air.
The multi-layered exhibits with birds, mammals and even fish in the same enclosures were really interesting.

Absolutely love this place. The number and selection of animals is quite good but the zoo has many interconnected walking paths you can take at your own desire. The design and layout allows you to get pretty close to many animals. There are lots of benches all over so you can stop and rest at any point. Be sure to catch the walking of the Penguins during the colder months. Highly recommend!

Basel Zoo is a great day out! There is so much to see and the grounds are absolutely beautiful!
It’s only a 10 min walk from Basel SBB main station so it’s really easy to get to!
The enclosures seemed to be ample size and the variety of animals is great!! (I was amazed by the African Wild Dogs as I’d never seen them before)
Highly recommend if you have a day to kill in Basel!

Very good zoo, and with the Basel Card discount it's half the price, which I think is incredible!!! 11FR to visit is really good! You can see several animals, but I don't know if I was late or it was cold but many of the animals weren't in the enclosures, so I ended up only seeing the ones that were inside the buildings. Still, it was very worth it. I recommend visiting, five stars!

The whole zoo is very nice and it's not too big but also not too small. Although a lot of things are stoll very old like the benches and some cages for the animals. Otherwise the staff seem all very friendly. And if you go early in the morning there are only a few people and it is very peaceful.

We Love a good zoo, especially ones with penguins but the indoor enclosure looked tiny for how many birds were in there..
The rest of the zoo had lots of animals to see and things to do and of course plenty of overpriced places to grab a drink (no, not just because Switzerland)
Bus stop right outside the zoo for direct access to the city center.
Worth a visit.

A must visit it Basel. If you’re staying at a hotel, the Baselcard gives you 50% discount. I spent about 2 hours in the zoo, but someone could easily spend more. The animals are clean and well kept, with employees often checking in on their welfare. This is also the first time I had the chance to watch a rhino up close. Great for a family trip.

A very good zoo that kids will thoroughly enjoy. There are plenty of animals; however, we missed seeing elephants and snakes due to the snow and cool weather. Tickets can be purchased at the entrance.

Very large zoo with a great diversity of species to see. The highlight for me was the primates section and the penguin walk which is scheduled at specific times of the day.
The food in the zoo cantina is also quite nice with good hotdogs.
Note: With the Basel card the price is cut in half.
Diogo Branco — Google review
Little disappointed by the price, which is 20 Euro per person. For this monney I expect to see a lot of animals, but instead of this, I saw only few animals which are interesting.
Aquarium is OK, but why terrarium next to him? Why there are missing tiger, wolf, parrots... Lot of interesting animals are missing. I didn't pay entrance to see wild boar or donkeys. Even that I respect those animals, but.... Really.... In Stuttgart or Karlsruhe You can see more animals. Only thing why there are not only one star because I am satisfied with ambient where are the animals, it is almost like in they habitat. Everything else, is not deserving any stars.
Basel Town Hall, also known as Rathaus, is a historic building located in the heart of the city. Constructed over 500 years ago, it serves as the seat of the local legislature. The vibrant red sandstone exterior makes it a prominent landmark in Marktplatz, where visitors can explore an outdoor marketplace and enjoy street performances. Inside, the town hall features impressive frescoes and a grand wooden staircase.
We had a good time visiting the town hall in Basel. It is a large colorful building that cannot be missed as it stands out! Inside is a square in which there were performers (musicians) and a large tree decorated in which many a people took holiday photos in front of. You can climb the stairs and look upon the statues and murals painted on the walls.

The magnificent Town Hall stands in the Marktplatz. Over 500 years old, this structure hosts the Cantonal Parliament (similar to a state government in the US or a provincial government in Canada). While many of the interior frescoes have been lost to time, the building itself it worth a stop and if you can arrange it, a tour.
Even if you can't do the guided tour, a look around is certainly worth your time. When was the last time you visited a building that is over five centuries old?

The City Hall is the seat of the Basel government and its parliament. In the midst of the Old Town, it is particularly eyecatching with its red facade, the characteristic tower and playful frescoes.
A visit to the Rathaus (city hall) is worthwhile especially on account of the council chamber, the attractive inner courtyard, the romantic arcades and the tower. It was built after the great earthquake to replace the former seat of government. After Basel joined the Swiss Confederation, the front part of the building was replaced with an imposing new structure. The coats of arms of Basel and the 11 other members of the then Confederation adorn the crenellations. At the beginning of the 17th century, the city hall was extended, and the artist Hans Bock decorated the facade with painted trompe l'oeil. In 1900 the building was extended again to include the left-hand wing and the tower at the right.

Basel Minster is a famous Protestant Gothic style church with twin spires and a tiled roof built in the 9th century. It is located on Munsterhugel, the highest point in Basel, and is easily spotted by its prominent spires and brightly patterned roof tiles.
One of the most iconic landmark in Basel that you have to see. If you are brave enough to climb to the top of the tower, you will be rewarded by the breathtaking view of the city across the Rhine. And if you look further, you can even see across the French and German country border. Even if you don't have the strength to climb atop of it's tower, the cathedral has an ornate interior as well as a monastery with courtyard right next to the cathedral.

One of the most beautiful churches i have ever seen. Loved the painted glass and the columns, the ceiling and arches.The entrance is free but if you want to go up to the tower you have to pay 6 CHF. And you will want to go to one of the towers, because the view to the river and the city is breathtaking. I never miss this part anywhere, and now i wasn't dissapointed. You will not regret it.

Hey, the tower is an absolute must-visit! The views are absolutely jaw-dropping, giving you the perfect overview of the city. Plus, the ticket prices are a steal compared to other towers in Europe. But hey, here's a tip: don't tackle the climb solo. Some parts of the tower can get pretty spooky with darkness, and those stairs? They're high and narrow, like something out of a medieval adventure! So grab a buddy you trust and make a day of it. Exploring the tower will easily fill up an hour of your time, but remember, it shuts down at 4 pm sharp. So get there early to soak in all the views and enjoy the breeze!

Basel Minster is a free to enter church located at the heart of the city. It's also the location of the Basel Autumn festival and Christmas markets. It's a stunning Gothic cathedral, stands as an architectural marvel. You can buy tickets to go up the cathedral's tower to experience panoramic views of Basel and the Rhine River. Its timeless beauty and cultural significance make it a jewel in Switzerland's heritage and a true testament to Gothic architecture's grandeur.

Basel Monastery is located in Basel, Switzerland and is one of the city's major tourist attractions. The monastery is on the Swiss national heritage list. The monastery, which was originally built for the Catholic Church, was transferred to the Protestant Church after the Reformation. The building, which was influenced by Romanex architecture and Gothic architecture between 1019 and 1500, was destroyed in the 1356 Basel Earthquake and was rebuilt by Johannes Gmünd, the architect of the Freiburg Monastery, and completed by Ulrich Ensingen in 1421. The south tower was completed by Hans von Nußdorf in 1500.
When you go to Basel, you should definitely see this place and the Palatinate (Palatinate) Viewing Platform next to it.
Mount Pilatus is a prominent mountain peak in Switzerland that boasts of sweeping views, a restaurant, and a hotel accessible through cable cars, gondolas, and railways. It can be reached via the Golden Round Trip which provides an unforgettable experience of the Swiss Alps.

The visibility can be tricky due to the clouds so I would advise go a little bit later during the day. The cart all the way up (return) was around 70 e per person.
There is a parking near by that cost us 5 euro for 5 hours.
There are restaurants all the way up. We took fries, coke and pretzel for total of 17e
The hill itself has few small hikes around the peak which is great.
It is possible to hike all the way up or down from the peak.

Wonderful place with a fantastic scenery. A lot of short (but steep) trails and beautiful climb up by the cable car. Take the time to visit the area half way up. It provides a different and nice angle.
It is better to take some snacks and drinks with you since the food and drink prices at the shops are as high as the mountain itself.

Mount Pilatus was only white fog for us. There was a tonne of crowd with us waiting for the clouds to go away! But the ride up the gondola and the view is beautiful. The fun thing is that we can get down at any of the stops and hike up or down as per our choice. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the clouds above, it felt like we were in heaven 😂, everything was blanket white. We hiked down a few kilometres till the last gondola stop. And the walk is steep but very very scenic. If you have the will and stamina, walk down a bit. It’s absolutely beautiful valley and the views are amazing 😍

We took the cable car up and cogwheel train down. This way we avoided the big crowd. We also missed the best ferry schedule so we went back to Luzern, visited the museum and then we took a evening cruise to Weggis. It was a perfect day spent in Luzern.

It was one of the best trips we’ve had in Switzerland. There are different routes to do it, we chose to go with the boat from Luzern, then the funicular up the mountain and then the gondola and cable car down to Kriens and the bus back to Luzern - it was absolutely brilliant. Took a total of 5 - 5.5 hours from the moment we got on the boat. It is recommended to reserve a time slot for the cogwheel train otherwise you would need to wait more.

Picturesquare views from the top. Price from Kulm to Pilatus and back was 62 CHF, but it really pays off. I was at the beginning of march, aby 0 degrees on top, and wind.

The view from the pick is absolutely stunning! The round trip ticket with the cable car cost 78 CHF. I went on Sunday so the line for taking the gondola was huge. I waited 30-40 min in the line despite the fact that I had an online ticket purchased before.
You should consider 2-3 hours at the peak of the mountain. There are several points to eat, souvenir
and Swiss watches shops and restaurants.
Don't forget to wear comfy clothes and shoes, otherwise it will be difficult to hike.
The Chapel Bridge in Lucerne is a wooden bridge that spans the Reuss River. It is one of the oldest covered bridges in Europe, and it is named after nearby St. Peter's Chapel. The octagonal water tower, built in the early 14th century, is the city's most photographed landmark.
Beautiful place for sightseeing. The old wooden bridge has a sad history but pretty to look at. One can easily roam the entire city and admire the old Town architecture.
The lake has many swans and ducks swimming, it's very cute. Do take a walk in the bridge.

This bridge provides a different architecture scene compared to its surrounding. Yet it does not seem out of place. Rather, it elevates the scenery as one of the most picturesque in Luzerne.
There are tons of alfresco dining available around the area which allows you to enjoy the scenery while eating and drinking.
Because of its popularity with tours and tourists, this bridge can be very crowded and will be difficult to navigate.

The Lion Monument is a significant tourist attraction in Lucerne, Switzerland. It depicts a lion carved out of natural sandstone rock, which appears to be dying from being impaled by a broken spear. The monument was built to honor Swiss mercenaries who lost their lives while defending King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette during the attack on Tuileries Palace in 1792.

The Lion Monument is a truly captivating piece of art that embodies deep emotion and historical significance. Carved into the rock face, this monument depicts a dying lion, a powerful symbol of courage and sacrifice. The intricacy of the sculpture's details, from the texture of the lion's fur to the facial expressions, is simply remarkable. The setting, surrounded by a tranquil pond and lush vegetation, adds to the monument's impact, creating a reflective and solemn atmosphere. Visiting the Lion Monument is an experience that evokes contemplation about the past and pays homage to the fallen soldiers it honors.

A beautiful rock carved sculpture depicting the fallen Swiss soldiers from an episode in the French Revolution. The majesty and the anguish of the lion is immense. The park is a very quiet one and the visit there can be combined with the Glacier garden which is adjacent to it. I would consider this to be worth a visit if visiting Lucerne for more than a day.

The place is very calm and relaxing. You can sit down and have a good rest watching the lion monument. It's an incredible art carving on the rock. Its free so it's worth paying a visit. But the museum have to pay.

Massive monument with an interesting fountain in front of it. Much more enjoyable than how it appears in the picture. Check out the really interesting public bathroom.

It is recommended to come when the light is at an oblique angle. It can be morning or evening. To better capture the details of the monuments carved into the rocks without being too contrasty. The monuments are very large compared to people. The surrounding area has stories to tell. You should take time to sit and relax and remember the origin of creation and the serenity of the place of the departing lion

Only a short walk away from the station, it's well maintained and gives an insight into the history and background of the place. There are benches where you can sit and relax and reflect. No fees for entry and it was not crowded when I visited. Please do read the plaque which is at the left hand side corner which gives the historical background

I love how beautiful this place is and for sure there is a sad story behind it but this memorial is full of emotion. It completely shows the pain of war. Make sure you give yourself time to sit for a minute there. Best visited before or after hours with no so many people, in any case people amount changes minute to minute. There are bathrooms there, benches to sit and it’s a beautiful place in whole.

Simply stunning piece of art or monument.
It’s very simple, and yet could portray a lot of meaning and history.
We visited during the fall, and the surrounding trees and leaves just made it all the more beautiful!

The sculpture on the rock of the cliff of Lion is so beautiful and stunning.
The story around is during the French Revolution. The mournful time just invites to the journey back to past.
The place has a small pond and WC and very much accessible from public transport or by walk from station
The town is pretty small so great to explore it by foot
Also there is a glacier museum nearby

The Lion Monument or the Lion of Lucerne is designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen in 1820. It commemorates the Swiss Guards who were massacred during the French Revolution in 1792. There's no ticket required to access it.

Arrived on a rainy summer morning around 10am and it was already pretty crowded. Parked at the Coop shopping center and walked there, but almost everything in Switzerland is accessible by train and bus. The lion is behind the businesses and catches you by surprise once you find it.

It’s easier to get here via public transit. There are paid parking spots nearby but they may be hard to get as there aren’t that many. The park is rather small and can be visited in short time. It’s a nice stop which can be combined with a walk through the surrounding neighborhood. There is no charge to visit the monument.

Follow the signs to reach. No ticket required.
Large plaza in front for photo taking. Some benches available. Maybe spend 10 to 15 minutes for photo.
Located beside a museum (glacier garden) which is worth a visit. It is included in the Swiss travel pass.
A popular destination for tourists, Lake Lucerne is the fourth-largest lake in Switzerland and offers boat trips with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The well-preserved old town situated right on the lake adds to its allure, making it a must-visit place for alpine scenery enthusiasts. To fully explore this compact city, it's recommended to spend a whole day on foot. The train station located in the city center provides easy access to all parts of Lucerne via public transport.
Passed by around this lake to prepare Boat to Mountain Pilatus, everything was good, but unfortunately the cable car isnot working that day

This lake and this area in general, is very scenic and relaxing. The water was placid and tranquil as well. It offers nice views of the surrounding city of Luzern and it's mountains. I recommend taking a boat tour of the lake. It is an hour long with one stop round trip. Definitely worth seeing and pretty hard to avoid if you visit Luzern.
Phillip Soto — Google review
It is stunning, with a backdrop of mountains and punctuated by little towns, villages and settlements along the coastline. The water is pristine and often changes colour.
Better still, if you're heading to the Gotthard Panorama Express, catch the paddle steamer all the way to Fluelen, a trip of about 2.75 hours and the scenery just gets better and better (have your camera ready). If that is what you are doing, then you can book your luggage through to the train at the departure point in Luzern, so you don't have to worry about carrying it on board.
Narender Kumar — Google review
Best place to be visited during all season. Super combination of mountains along with lakes and also boat rides makes it complete package.
Debjit Ghosh — Google review
Sailed from Lucerne to Flüelen on the Uri, Europe's oldest paddle steamer. The 100 year old boat is in the best possible conditions and offers all amenities with a flair of the grand old times. The panoramic boat ride lasts around 2:45 h, in early October there was a fresh breeze so bring warm cloth if you plan to stay outside. The upper deck is beautifully sunny, but other areas more wind protected. The morning fog soon lifted and views opened, so don't be deterred if the morning looks gloomy. The restaurant serves food and drink, but nobody minds if you bring your own either. Indoors there are information panels and one can watch the steam engine in full action. It looks as shiny and new as it started operations yesterday, not 100 years ago.

Lake Lucerne is surrounded by beautiful mountains, picturesque villages and the Old town which makes the cruise through the lake an enjoyable experience.
We took the boat from Luzern Bahnhofquai to Kehrsiten - Burgenstock and back which took around an hour.
The trip was very relaxing. You can immerse yourself in the calmness of lake Lucerne and enjoy the sights of the floating swans, the majestic snow covered mountains, the green meadows with village houses popping up and the regal structures of the Old town.

One of the most beautiful spots on earth Lake Lucerne us a must in one's bucket list when they visit Switzerland 🇨🇭.

Lake Lucerne is a lake in central Switzerland and the fourth largest in the country.Several spa and bathing resorts such as Weggis or Gersau are available here,Different sports are possible in some separate areas due to the water and wind conditions. The lake is accessible from boat and yacht harbors, to lake resorts and pools. There are about ten places where you can dive without a boat in Lake Lucerne. The water is rather chilly all year round and therefore mostly very clear

We took the train from Zurich to Lucerne. It was a beautiful summer day, and I was wearing my favorite cotton high-top shoes. From Lucerne, we boarded a boat that crossed the lake toward Alpnachstad station. From there, we would take the train up the mountain to the top. Lake Lucerne shimmered in the bright sunlight as we sliced through the crystalline waves. While I twisted in my seat to get a better look at the landscape, I shifted my feet, turning them left, then right. My ankles were sore, but I couldn’t figure out why.

The street originated from humble beginnings, however, and today it is one of the most popular places in all of Zurich to shop for luxury items. Many of the worlds best known designers have stores on this street, as well as the headquarters of Credit Suisse.

We love the Bahnhofstrasse! Every time when we visited Zurich, we would always dropped by the Bahnhofstrasse!
This long shopping street is in the heart of Zurich, it runs through from North to South, which begins from the train station & end at the edge of the Zurich lake.
Being one of the most expensive shopping streets in Europe & the main commercial hub in Zurich, you would be surprised that you could still find many shops that are very affordable for normal people, I.e. H&M, Adidas, Nike...etc. The closer to the lake, the more expensive they are. (i.e. lined with upmarket shops selling jewelleries or Rolax...etc.) There are also serval lovely but very affordable restaurants located on the side streets along Bahnhofstrasse.
The street is always very clean and there are tramlines running along it. It is very easy to walk & we love it!

So many familiar designer stores and nice restaurants and café lining this lively street, with the road run by their electric trams. There is also a small plaza along the street and giant Swiss flags hang from overhead wires. The streets are surprisingly clean for a very busy and expensive street.

Randomly picked a steakhouse in tourists area, that we already have mentally prepared for any surprises, ordered a T bone on a heat rock, which is I don’t like this cooking, I think grill is the best cooking for steak. The meat is soso. No surprise of expensive dinning after the day one in Swiss.

Waiter demanding tip let them down.
Good food, good ambiance, reasonable prices on lunch special BUT will never return after waiter demands a tip. He mentioned it four or five times and made the our use of our credit card difficult until a tip was added. He only cleared out plates.
A more senior waiter, more smartly dressed, perhaps the owner, was much more pleasant taking our order, delivering the food and second glass of wine. I tip for excellent service not for just doing the job.
Sadly our end to this meal means we will not return and therefore can’t recommend it.

The restaurant service and food were not good for the price. The servers were not nice and very impatient. Even though I was also staying there I was waiting to meet someone and they practically tried to get rid of me. I had to sit and was forced to order food to stay there which was outside even though there were lots of empty tables. They belittled me for visiting with my niece for what they thought was too long even though it was only about an hour. Will never eat here or stay here again. The room was big e good at all with a broken television and other problems including no soap.

Had dinner here, a quick steak late at night.
The meat is average at best, and well overpriced. It’s a classic tourist trap.
The waiter was incredibly offended and rude when I didn’t tip. Tried to sort of bulling me into reconsidering? Anyway, I recommend he changes attitude, job, or at least employer.

Really great steak. Mediocre service. Waiter with short facial hair asked for a tip, I proceeded to add 4 francs out of courtesy, he cancelled my credit card payment and said typically people tip 10%, I put 0 francs and he basically threw a fit at the table dropping my credit card and slamming the receipt on the table (not even over exaggerating...) made me feel a bit uncomfortable, but all I had to do was walk out the restaurant. Won't be coming back again.

As soon as we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted with a very warm hospitality. Also, we were showed to a table immediately even though we said we didn't book a table. All of the staff was very helpful, attentive, and friendly and big smiles on their faces.
The staff was always asking if we needed anything or if everything was okay, which felt very nice. When we were trying to take pictures, one of the staff also came in to help without being asked when he saw us. We also didn't have to wait too long for the food.
I had ostrich steak on a hot plate which was soooo juicy. Me likey very much🥰🥰. I also like how they have so many side dishes, including the risotto I chose. I also tried the rib eye hot plate steak which was very nice because we can choose the wellness of the steak😂 although we had to be very careful not to accidentally touch it (my dad did😅😅) .
Then, I ended this meal with tiramisu with fresh fruits and my parents had ice cream (sour cream, passion fruit, walnut)
Overall, I was very impressed this candle lit steak dinner ❤❤

Nice little hotel in the heart of the Old Town in Zürich where there are lots of restaurants and shops, and it is also only a short walk from Zürich central station and tram stops. It sits above a restaurant of the same name. Recommended for couples only as the rooms are very small.
The Highlights:
- the rooms are very clean upon check in, and despite being small, has the basic necessities: bed, air conditioning, mini fridge, kettle, Closet, TV, hot water, towels, etc. It's also non-smoking which is really appreciated, considering how much people seem to smoke here in Zürich.
- Another highlight is that it has a lift (elevator) that fits 4 people with no luggage, or 2 people with 2 suitcases
- The continental breakfast included in the room has two kinds of bread, two kinds of cold cuts, some fruit, jams, three kinds of cheeses, juices, coffee and tea - enough to fuel up for the morning until lunch time.
-Although the hotel is in the heart of the Old Town with bars and restaurants right below it, the sound proofing of the windows is pretty good as we couldn't hear the outside world once we've shut them properly.
What can be improved:
- Customer service leaves much to be desired. The people serving in the morning don't seem to want to host people at all as he didn't want to interact with any guest, save to serve us coffee or tea. This is observed both days we had breakfast there.
- Our room also wasn't cleaned. Not sure what the custom here in Switzerland is, but when we returned to our room after our second day, we found that our bed wasn't turned over, the dirty towel on the floor was hung up against the towels we wanted to reuse, the complimentary drinking water was not replaced. The only things done were opening the window to let air in and the trash had been taken out. If not for those, we wouldn't have known someone was in our room.
- The pillows were very flat and if you folded them, they would stay folded (which means they are expired and should be replaced). This is minor if it doesn't bother you, or course.
- as mentioned, the room is very small so be mindful of that if you are planning to bring large suitcases for your trip as there's little room to place them in.
Overall, I would only recommend this hotel for staying in Zürich for its location and value for money and not for any other reason.

I ordered a sirloin steak well done with a baked potato no sour cream but with butter. The meal came with the steak being seared on both sides but raw in the middle and I said this is not cooked to my liking he said you have to cook it yourself on the stone I said I'm paying you $50 for a steak and I have to cook it? The waiter ended up cooking it the rest of the way on the stone which took about half an hour.
The baked potato did not come with any butter like I asked and no skin I like to eat the skin on my baked potato but there was none it looked like a piece of lasagna. In addition the steak was tough I did not believe it was a sirloin because it had gristle in it. I did have dessert apple pie ice cream and it was delicious. No I won't be back.
This 1.3-sq-km glacial lake in the Black Forest features boating, fishing & more.

There is an Indian restaurant within the heart ❤️ of the town, which also serves delicious food.
Every side you see, it's stunning 😍
The only issue here is toilet facilities.
Tropical indoor bathing area with palm trees, a sauna & wellness zone, plus a water park.
A welcome retreat at the end of a long weekend of sightseeing. The facility was clean and the staff was helpful with the language barrier. My family of four thoroughly enjoyed our time here sliding down the super fun water slides and relaxing in the warm mineral waters. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We will be back!

By far one of the best swimming pools I've ever been to. The Galaxy part has a bunch of exciting slides, great with (older) children. The Oasis part is very relaxing if you want to get away from the noise for a few hours. Staff is English speaking, and the facilities were very good. Limited choice of food in the restaurant and quite expensive entry though. Be sure to buy tickets in advance, as they will be cheaper.

They try to milk tourists by applying dynamic pricing which is nowhere mentioned on their website. Avoid this and go to any local swimming pool by googling " indoor swimming pool near me" you will at least save 50 euros per person.
Also the waiting times were more than 1 hour even after paying a dynamic high price (which is double the normal price).

the whole place is closed..
with all the rain outside you don't feel at all .. the super special thing .. is the waves in the big pool .. every quarter of an hour. Strong waves are active in the pool, which is a great thing

Not allowed to take photos inside for privacy of other guests, amazing fun and beautiful pools. Don't recommend bringing pool toys, not needed and they will get lost/not be allowed in some pools. Storage areas for all your belongings with key. Difficult to plan a birthday there though.

Very nice place, friendly staff. Unfortunately I can't give higher points because there's a lot of people in swimming suit and bikinis walking around even making fun of the ones which are naked and enjoying a good time. When confronted, the staff told me that is allow because they can go to their rented chairs and after be naked. The management should understand that this rule allows stupid people that only go there to laugh ( like seeing people naked was funny or degrading). I think the management should take measurements to insure they clients privacy and security and not allow bikinis and swimming suits in the naked area anymore. Also I think there's should be more control since I saw a lot of people with their feet in the saunas hood.
One final note: the sauna masters are amazing, they made an amazing show, my thank you for all of them.

Well worth the price for toddlers and kids.
Beautiful setting when snowing outside.

The place is very elegant, clean and well-organized. Very calm and peaceful. Admission fee is very high for what was offered in the thermal baths section. The food is also inconsistent, my friend ordered a Schnitzel for 15 EUR but got something that is the quality of an airplane meal. Not worth the money!
