“Our excitement quickly disapated as we began this poorly run excursion. It felt more like a way for this tourist trap to encourage buying their trinkets and cheese. It was two hours. We spent at most, 45 minutes making the cheese. The guide was scattered and hurried. He would leave us to go do other activities in the shop and tell us to go walk around. Bizarre. We learned zero about the history, production, etc.”
