Nestled in a beautiful valley in the western corner of Switzerland, Geneva is a bustling cosmopolitan city with a lot on offer for day visitors. Your visit would be incomplete if you don’t make the pilgrimage to see the famous Jet d’Eau fountain in the middle of Lake Geneva, which shoots a plume of water 459ft into the air. Other interesting and unusual city activities include soaking up the sun at the Bains de Paquis (city baths on the lake), visiting the Botanical Gardens and Conservatory of Geneva or taking a cable car up Mount Saleve for fabulous hiking or mountain biking. The city also offers excellent up-market shopping and fine-dining.
