Description

Discover during this varied coach tour the Alpine village of Chamonix at the foot of Mont Blanc and ascend high up to the Aiguille du Midi. First, you'll travel for approximately 1:30 hours, during which your guide will show you the most important orientation points. Once you arrive, you’ll reach the Aiguille du Midi by cable car in about 20 minutes. From there, you'll be treated to a breathtaking view of the peaks of the Swiss, French, and Italian Alps.

In the afternoon, the bus will take you back to Geneva. There, you will continue with a city tour of the most famous sights. This includes the impressive Jet d'Eau and the colourful Flower Clock. Afterwards, learn all about the city’s history on a miniature train tour through Geneva’s streets. Then, discover the city from a completely different perspective during a one-hour boat cruise.

Practical information

  • The miniature train is not available in January and February, or in bad weather.
  • Children under 2 years old are not allowed on the cable car.

Swiss Activities Tip

Around Lake Geneva there are numerous wine regions. Viticulture is very important in the Geneva area. Not only is the wine delicious, but the view is also breathtaking. In Satigny, you can visit the Cave de Genève or the Domaine du Paradis, both offering tours.
