Wonderful introduction to Switzerland and Montreaux - We had an excellent tour guide who started our tour at the Freddie mercury statue. We walked along the lake for the entirety of the tour. Vitor was very knowledgeable about the music history of the area and the town of Montreax. He offered great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit once the door was over.
