|
When you're in the country of chocolate, you should not miss the Chocolate train. It runs from Montreux to the Gruyére region of Switzerland from which comes that excellent quality Cailler chocolate and naturally, Gruyere cheese! You will travel exclusively in 1st class éBelle Epoque Pullman deluxe carriages just as in 1915, or in panoramic coaches. Visit the picturesque Gruyéres village and discover how Gruyere cheese is made at the demonstration cheese dairy. It is at Broc, where you will see how chocolate is made at the Cailler factory where a tour is offered together with a film and a tasting.
The Chocolate train runs every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from May to October and every day in July and August. Reservations are compulsory and can be made at Montreux train station or at your travel agency. The package includes coffee and croissant on the train, bus transfers and a tour of the Gruyéres castle, as well as visits to the demonstration cheese dairy and the chocolate factory.
