The 8 Best Wine Tours & Tastings in Geneva, Canton of Geneva
The shores of Lake Geneva have attracted visitors and invaders for millennia. The cheerful city of Geneva sits on the lake's western shore, lofty snowcapped peaks creating a gorgeous backdrop on all sides. The city is perfect for exploring on foot; rent a bike to venture further. The top of any itinerary should be visits to Geneva's lakefront and its famed water fountain, the Flower Clock in the English Garden, St. Peter's Cathedral, Reformation Wall, Place Neuve and the birthplace of the U.N.

Val was our guide for the event. She was great fun and full of good energy. The places she took us to were probably not on our radar. It was a good way to get to know old town. Val knew the vendors well so that made the experience something special. The wine and food tastings were great. We were also able to interact with the vendors who were very friendly and helpful. All in all a great time. Val is a very interesting person and fun to Eat & Chill with. Highly recommended.

Excellent transfer from Geneva Airport to Les Saisies and back again. Drivers were personable, polite and most importantly, very good at driving in heavy snow. Will use them again, much cheaper/hassle free than renting your own car and stressing about the conditions.
