Anyone up for this around 12 noon on match day? There's decent reviews on TripAdvisor of some fella who does it.

100%.

The late 8.45pm kick off time needs to be factored in so anything to delay the pints for a couple of hours will be welcome

Don’t get in until 11 on matchday so might do this depending on how quick can get in there at! Is the game 8:45 kick off?

OK so after looking into this the tours are a set time on Tuesday's at 11am. The website says the following: ATTENTION PLEASE: THERE IS NO NEED TO SIGN UP, JUST CHECK THE SCHEDULE AND SHOW UP AT THE INDICATED TIME AND PLACE. (GROUPS UP TO 9 PEOPLE ACCEPTED). ENJOY YOUR TOURS!
 
Not sure whether 9 is the maximum number for the tour or that a single group of 9 people can be accommodated. Anyway I doubt it would matter if 20 or so of us turn up. Website below has further info.

You are either in the wrong thread, going to Geneva very early, or staying on very late.

Did it on the Monday as the weather was great. There was about 6/7 other Irish on it.
Learned that Geneva was the 1st city to convert to Protestant.
Was good enough.
