The Pearl of Lake Geneva

With its microclimate and palm trees, the Montreux region has earned its nickname ‘The Riviera’. Nestling on the shores of Lake Geneva, Montreux has a unique charm all of its own. A popular destination from the earliest days of tourism, its Belle Époque architecture is a reminder of the splendours of yesteryear.

At the foot of the mountains, bathed by the sparkling lake, it is a pearl.

You can enjoy its magnificent car-free quayside, with breathtaking views of the Alps. We'll also guide you on a tour of the surrounding area, including the famous and beautiful Chillon Castle, set in the waters of the lake, and the Chaudron Gorges...

With all these little nuggets you'll enjoy a particularly varied, peaceful and memorable tour.
