I had been aware of this museum for some time, but was worried about how easy it might be to get there. If you are a tourist in the surrounding area (we came from Montreux) you can use the "Riviera Card" for free bus travel and half price entry. The regular bus from Vevey takes about 10 minutes and is an entertaining ride as it goes through (very) small roads in the surrounding hills.
The attraction itself definitely exceeded expectations. There are two main parts - The Studio and The House. The House is mainly as Chaplin would have left it - with a few areas altered to tell a story.
The Studio is a cinema showing a short film - and then you walk through the screen into an amazing experience. I won't spoil it for you - but you won't be disappointed.
