The rhine falls was...

The rhine falls was wonderful. Don’t do the pink tour. Not worth it the boat drive spent more time talking to his female companion along for the ride and you go to the boarder and you don’t even know you were in Germany it was not mentioned as we pass the line. Then the chocolate factory tour was uneventful. No one to answer questions and explain anything about the factory. You just walked through it and had a bunch of chocolate samples. There was some signs to read about the family. Don’t book on a weekend because no machine were working. Then the cheese tour they gave you a box with 5 small cheese samples and again you walk through trying to read the QR code you scanned eat the cheese and walk though the plant. You spend more time looking at your phone than seeing the plant. They also gave you a bag of herbs which ended in the garbage. Highly recommend a different tour

Best part of our trip to Switzerland! Cheese and chocolate factories are a little more kid driven than adult driven but still enjoyed them.
