Overview

The tour begins with a coach departure from Geneva, traveling for about one hour to Annecy, a town known as the Venice of the Alps. Upon arrival, a guide leads a 45-minute walking tour of Annecy's Old Town. The tour includes visits to the 12th-century Palais de l'Isle, a historic castle located on an island in the Thiou River, and the Château d’Annecy, a former residence of the Bishop of Geneva that now functions as a museum. The route passes by Lake Annecy, France’s third-largest lake, noted for its clear waters. After the guided walk, there is 1.5 hours of free time for independent exploration, shopping, or relaxing by the lake. The return journey to Geneva completes the approximately five-hour tour. The coach is air-conditioned. Groups larger than ten are accompanied by a guide, while smaller groups have a driver-guide. Entrance fees, food, and drinks are not included.
