Wonderful

The buffet was wonderful, huge variety of option and everything was delicious! Very high quality food and we could see the Gleysier erupting while having dinner. The show afterwards was amazing, and the whole experience orchestrated in a very unique beautiful way. Afterwards we could see the Gleysier errupt again closeup, where the lights and hot chocolate made it become a very magical evening to remember.
