Descripción
Depart from Montreux in a 2025 Mercedes V-Class for a full-day discovery tour of Gruyères: medieval village, castle, PDO cheese, and Cailler chocolate, with a local driver-guide.
Gruyères is one of those destinations that instantly transports you to another era. A medieval village perched on a rocky outcrop and ranked among the most beautiful tourist villages in the world, it is also the birthplace of PDO cheese, which has spanned the centuries and conquered tables around the world.
From Montreux, you'll board a spacious, air-conditioned 2025 Mercedes V-Class for a journey that is already worth the trip: the shores of Lake Geneva gradually give way to the verdant hills of the Fribourg Prealps. At the wheel is a local driver-guide, available in French and English, who will introduce you to his region with anecdotes and stories you won't find in any printed guidebook.
Your day begins at La Maison du Gruyère, where you will witness, right before your eyes, the secrets of making the world-famous PDO cheese: expertise passed down since the 15th century.
Next, you'll head for the medieval town: the ramparts, the cobbled streets, the breathtaking view of Mount Moléson, and the legends of the Counts of Gruyère… These are discoveries that only a local can truly bring to life for you. For the interior tour of Gruyères Castle, explore independently at your own pace with the included audio guide, available in 12 languages.
The day concludes at Maison Cailler in Broc, one of Switzerland's oldest chocolate factories, where you'll delve into the history of Swiss chocolate and enjoy a well-deserved tasting session.
