Geneva, Lausanne and Lavaux in 3 days

Known as "the smallest metropolis in the world" or "the city of peace", Geneva is an international city. Start your visit with a stroll along the lake - with its famous water fountain - then through the narrow streets of the old town, stopping in front of St. Peter's Cathedral and the Reformation Wall. Feel the international charm of the city by visiting the UN headquarters (Palais des Nations) and enjoy its Latin character by discovering its renowned cuisine and wines.

Take a train from Geneva to Lausanne (30 to 45 minutes). In the morning, visit the medieval city of Lausanne, its cathedral and steep alleys, especially on Saturdays when there is a lively market. After lunch in the centre, there are two options: art lovers can go up to the heights of Lausanne to visit the Fondation de l'Hermitage, which still offers very beautiful temporary exhibitions, while sports enthusiasts or those travelling with their families can go down to the quays of Ouchy and visit the Olympic Museum. In the evening, out to one of the Flon's trendiest places.

Get off at the port of Ouchy and embark aboard a boat from the NMC (Société Générale de navigation) for a cruise on the lake to Chillon. Visit the castle and then take the boat (or bus VMCV 1) to Vevey. After a lunch in Vevey, take the train from the vineyards to Chexbres, very nice village. Walk through the vineyards of Lavaux, either towards Saint-Saphorin (30 minutes) or to Cully (2 hours). Then take an SBB train for Lausanne/Geneva from one of these villages.
