Geneva Private Tour

This private walking tour begins on the banks of Lake Geneva, where you will see the Jet d'Eau water fountain, a powerful stream of water reaching heights of up to 450 feet. A 10-minute walk away is the English Garden, home to the famous flower clock, designed with 6,500 flowering plants that change seasonally, making it a popular photography spot.

Next, we walk along Rue du Rhône, known for its luxury shops. From there, we head to the Pont des Bergues bridge leading to Rousseau island, located at the mouth of the Rhône. Here, you'll learn about Jean-Jacques Rousseau, followed by a visit to the historic centre of Geneva.

In the Old Town, you'll admire the St Pierre Cathedral's neoclassical design resembling ancient Greek temples. Nearby is Madeleine Church, one of the oldest Protestant shrines in Switzerland, where you'll hear about John Calvin and his connection to this church.

The tour concludes by returning to the original starting point.
