“Our guide, Valerie, was fantastic. She was fun and energetic. It turn out that we were the only people on the tour so the experience was very personal. The meat and cheese tastings were delicious and the wine superb, the desserts and chocolates scrumptious!! Every vendor we met was friendly and knowledgable, we especially enjoyed wine with David and the butcher, Eric, was great. We highly recommend this tour and ask for Valerie!”

3.Taste Geneva – A Full Food Tour of Swiss Flavors by Do Eat Better

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 24 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $227

Join a local guide such as Benjamin, François, Robert, Nigel, or Anabelle for a 3.5-hour Geneva food walk. You will sample market charcuterie, pâté en croûte, moitié-moitié fondue, hot chocolate, truffles, and at least one alcoholic drink while walking between central sights.

“While Nigel was a very personable guide, the cost of this tour was not justifiable. Charcuterie off a service cart in the back of a market near service doors was not enticing. Cheese fondue was delish as was the stop for hot chocolate, and a handful of chocolates as a parting gift.”

4.Zürich Food Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 20 reviews · from $110Best value

“The tour operator never showed for the tour and the location address was very vague.. It was very unprofessional and beyond disappointing! I am expecting a full refund for the no show.”
