Nice Relaxing ride , fun facts about the boat , great history - We were just playing tourist and saw the boat and went and got on it, we did around trip we did not get off anywhere , we ended up going up stairs and having lunch , we did do the fist class lunch as we just wanted snacks . We enjoyed the scenery and all the stops to the next little towns, we did not get off. We stayed on board , we had a meat and cheese platter and it was enough for two people . Walk around read abut the boat, they do have a nice Dining room to dine in .

It’s just breathtaking. Seeing Montreux and the mountains from the lake - It’s just breathtaking. Seeing Montreux and the mountains from the lake really is an exciting experience. I recommend this to everyone who visits Switzerland.

Nice trip value for money - Nice trip but it would be handy for people to know if you get off at the castle then it’s another 2 hours before you rejoin the rest of the cruise , if you don’t want to go in castle it’s far too long to hop off

Ultra expensive - Beautiful views, good food, but lousy service because booked and paid, but everything had to be paid again on board because no trace of my reservation and payment

Super boring - This cruise takes around 1 hr plus. We got the upper deck. To us it's super boring because the view is not great. Our daughter fall asleep during the cruise.

Dissapointing - Buying the tickets in advance was not worth it. There is no clear directions on how to use the tickets and how to return when you leave the castle. The ticket booth attendant at the port told us they had nothing to do with those tickets and there was no one else there to provide information. Additionally, if you are staying in a Montreux hotel, they provide the Riviera Card that includes the round trip to Chillón for free, among other attractions. The boat also has a first class and second class sections. This was not specified at all in the tickets. Totally disappointing.

Missed the boat - We missed the boat! Got to Montreux with plenty of time to spare but the Christmas market made parking a nightmare,no spaces in the municipal car park,so had a long,slow walk through the crowds. So disappointing for the kids but we enjoyed the market stalls which helped make up for it. Maybe try again next time we visit.

Bad trip - The tour is beautiful, but the treatment inside the restaurant is disrespectful, shouting and turning back on guests on the tour from Montreux to Montreux. Unfortunately, from the waiter and mishandling of tourists and dealing with a certain quality, unfortunately, for the ship on 20/7/2023 at 12:20 from Montreux, and arriving in Montreux at 14:10 pm unfortunately bad wheter
