The 15 Wine Tours in Switzerland to Lock In Early

1.(STTG04) – Sightseeing Cruise at Geneva with Wine and Aperitif

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 235 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $38Our pick

Review of Geneva’s one-hour Lake Geneva cruise with wine, snacks, Jet d’Eau views, a solar boat, and practical tips before booking.

“Well, it was a small boat, 12 seater at best, and we were abt 8 passengers. The captain was a pleasant host, but only at the time of boarding...he introduced himself, put out the drink and cheese and then disappeared, not to be seen again ! There was no commentary of the sights, not even a recorded version...and while the boat made a smooth sailing, the master made no attempt to mingle with the passengers - this aspect needs to be improved in top priority.”

Ride Zurich by electric Tuk Tuk, see its top sights, and enjoy hot stone steak, fries, salad, sauces, and red wine on the move.

“Our TukTuk was driven by Stefano who was a great tour guide and gave us lots of interesting and little known facts about Zurich as we travelled around. Despite the weather, the tour was great fun, showed all the main sights (some even nicer at night!) and this was followed by a travelling dinner which was delicious. A great couples or small group activity to see the city by night and enjoy dinner at the same time.”

The wine tasting and seeing the production process was very educational. Markus made entire experience fun and enjoyable. I would recommend this small group wine tour and tasting to anyone visiting Zurich. The 1 hour train ride from Zurich to Landquart was easy and you get to see some of the pretty Switzerland landscape/mountains on the train ride.”

Review of Lavaux’s four-hour wine and food walk, with vineyard views, local tastings, lunch, logistics, value, and booking advice.

“A great opportunity to sample little know Swiss wines and learn about the climate and ‘valleys’ of Lavaux. If you can, get Marc for the guide. He is a great story teller, absolutely knows the people, region and wines, and has an interesting background hailing from New Zealand. A great guy and foot tour guide. Make sure you sip the 1887 Vermouth. This is a great afternoon excursion with a good lunch and plenty of wine.”
