Freddie Tours in the press and media
Since their launch in 2020, Freddie Tour has been featured in numerous press articles and reports broadcast on national and international television channels.
Plan your private tour and programme in Montreux
The one-hour Freddie Tour introduces you to the highlights.
The 2½-hour Freddie Tour Extended offers a more detailed route, with more places, stories and anecdotes. These two routes are a starting point for planning your private guided tour in Montreux. We discuss the format with you to suit your group’s needs and the time you have available.
To prepare your outing, also discover the story of Freddie Mercury’s statue and the Queen – The Studio Experience exhibition in the former Mountain Studios.
Would you like to continue with another group activity, an aperitif or a meal? Depending on your budget, group size and availability, your programme could include:
- A private boat trip on Lake Geneva, to discover the Riviera from the water.
- A meeting or talk with Peter Freestone, Freddie Mercury’s personal assistant for 12 years, subject to his presence and availability.
- A visit to Lavaux, on foot, by bus or by boat, among the UNESCO World Heritage vineyards. Freddie Mercury was particularly fond of Saint-Saphorin wine.
- A tasting, aperitif or meal with a wine producer, to continue your outing with the region’s wines.
- A private evening in an unusual venue, with an aperitif, cocktail dinner or meal.
Each activity is considered on request: the programme and price are confirmed in your proposal.

Team building in Montreux, a different way to get together
For a company outing in Montreux, a team day or a break during a seminar, offer your colleagues a cultural activity away from the workplace.
A private tour offers time to talk, discover the lakeside and share a musical story that speaks to several generations.
Freddie Mercury and Queen provide a theme for your team-building activity: the places, images and anecdotes spark curiosity and conversation. Your group does not have to consist solely of Queen fans to enjoy discovering Montreux and its musical heritage.
Planning a half-day outing or looking to include the tour in a wider programme? Tell us your preferred time and group size so we can prepare an outing that suits your group. The tour can be combined with a meal, tasting or another activity, subject to availability. Contact Freddie Tours to discuss your plans and receive a personalised offer detailing the services proposed for your outing in Montreux.
All equipment is included
The multimedia audioguide features exclusive photos and videos, along with stories, anecdotes and music throughout the walk. Headphones, their cable and a neck strap are provided so you can enjoy all this content comfortably.
The audio guide works automatically, with no settings to adjust. All you have to do is enjoy the experience.
An outing with friends, family or your association
A birthday, a reunion or simply a chance to spend time together: a day out with friends in Montreux can begin with a private tour and continue beside the lake.
Freddie Tours gives your day a shared theme, with places to discover and stories to enjoy together, rather than a visit where everyone follows their own plans.
For an association or a family gathering, your outing is also planned around the number of participants, languages and time available. You can choose a tour on its own or request a proposal with additional activities.
