Take the opportunity to cross geneva lake from one side to the other for the price of the bus ticket taking the little yellow boat. It is a cheap and great trip to discover the city from the lake.

Visit Geneva for the 1st of August celebration. It is the equivalent of the 4th of July and there are fantastic fireworks above the city.

This huge fountain is the landmark of Geneva. On a nice day people gather around the peer and enjoy the sun. Careful not to go too close as you will get soaking wet instantly.

jussi from Finland wrote about Montreux Jazz Festival one year, 5 months ago

The jazz/funk/soul/rap festival was our goal on a road trip. We hadn't booked an accommodation in advance though. We should've. The festival was packed with people and Montreux with its mountain background and palm trees by the lake felt like a great place. MC Common's gig was excellent and all the party people were happy. We spent the night until early morning in the venue and then on the streets before we decided to get some sleep... and headed to our car to sleep in it, as no other option was available..

Geneva is a cool town, it is situated by the lake Geneva with beautiful surroundings. Public transport is excellent, they've got all the shops and restaurants you need and the coffee's good. It's also just a couple of hours away from some of the best skiing in Europe. Works for me ;)

It is a great to go to with the kids. Lots of ice cream on the road nice stores and if you get close(max within 20 meters) it is refreshing.

touqo from Finland wrote about de la Bátie one year, 7 months ago

Nice park with some farm animals for the kids to enjoy. When you exit the park, take the train bridge across where the rivers Rhone and Arve are joining - has some nice views!

Be sure to leave enough time for security check, as the corridors go on and on forever before you actually get to the gate..of course depending on your destination. I seriously had to run for it a couple of times there, to catch my plane.

I love this little village between the vineyards and the lake. It offers one of the best views on the mountains over the lake. My favorite place around the Geneva Lake.

per from Finland wrote about Publier one year, 3 months ago

Nice little village above the famous resorts (spas, really) of Evian and Thonon, overlooking Lac Leman. Beautiful, tranquil surroundings - yet the jetset-nightlife is just a busride away!

per from Finland wrote about Publier one year, 3 months ago

Nice quiet village overlooking the famous resorts of Evian and Thonon, with a fabulous view of Lac Leman. Beautiful, serene surroundings, yet close to the jetset action of the expensive spa resorts.

Nice quiet village above the famous spa resorts of Evian and Thonon, overlooking Lac Leman. Fabulous views, beautiful surroundings, yet within walking distance (more or less) from the jetset nightlife of the expensive lakeshore resorts. Affordable accomodation and eating.
