Geneva to Gruyères: Private day trip

Discover Gruyeres’ medieval streets, castle views, quirky museums, and indulgent cheese traditions in a postcard setting. Crowned by a medieval castle and wrapped in Alpine charm, Gruyeres is a feast for the senses. Begin at the Gruyeres Castle, a 13th-century fortress with sweeping mountain views and gothic halls. Wander cobbled streets lined with chalets, fountains, and artisan shops, pausing at the surreal HR Giger Museum or the peaceful Tibet Museum. At La Maison du Gruyere, watch master cheesemakers at work and taste the world-famous cheese fresh from the wheel. Round off your visit with a traditional fondue moitie-moitie or local meringues topped with double cream: a true taste of Switzerland in a picture-perfect village.

Admire Vufflens Castle, a fairytale brick-red fortress rising above vineyards, framed by the snow-capped Jura mountains.

Gaze out at Lake Geneva’s vast blue waters, where sailboats drift beneath Alpine peaks and vineyards.
