Jet Off To Geneva
Located in the heart of mainland Europe and just a stone’s throw from the UK, Geneva has been crowned “Europe’s Leading City Break Destination” at the World Travel Awards for the past two consecutive years. Geneva Tourism is inviting visitors to “Jet off to Geneva” to witness first hand why it has been awarded this highly prestigious accolade.
Nestled in the foothills of the Alps with views overlooking Lake Geneva and stretching as far as Mont Blanc, Geneva promises to deliver a city experience like no other. The “Jet off to Geneva” campaign, running until the end of October, invites visitors to uncover Geneva’s best kept secrets. From the copious range of outdoor sporting activities including paddle boarding, fishing and water-skiing, to more cultural museum trips or serene spa experiences, this city most definitely has something to offer for everyone.
Museums
Geneva’s wealth of history and cultural offerings can be explored by visiting the numerous museums and galleries scattered around the city. The International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, the International Museum of the Reformation, the Patek Philippe Museum and the Bodmer Foundation are particular popular choices among tourists to learn about the city’s unique heritage.
Craftsmanship
For long over four centuries, Switzerland has been the global leader of luxury watchmaking. With over 80 independent jewellery and watch boutiques, visitors are encouraged to take a stroll down the Rue de Rhône, where they will also encounter the opportunity to partake in a watchmaking workshop. Hand-rolled cigars, leading auction houses and exclusive leading chocolatiers are amongst some of the other things the intrepid traveller is bound to stumble upon.
Food
Coined as Switzerland’s capital of gastronomy, Geneva also boasts a gourmet experience not to forget with countless Michelin Star restaurants never far around the corner. With over 140 restaurants offering menus from 5 different continents, the term “spoilt for choice” is simply an understatement.
Geneva promises to deliver a truly unforgettable stay and is the perfect city to escape your troubles, whilst experiencing a whole new cultural setting.
