Overview

Board our comfortable coach in Geneva and travel to Annecy, the enchanting “Venice of the Alps,” where crystal-clear canals, pastel houses, and stunning mountain scenery create a truly magical setting.

Step into the charming Old Town. Discover cobblestone streets, flower-filled façades, and lively canals on a guided walk or explore independently at your own pace. Highlights include the iconic Palais de l’Île, one of France’s most photographed landmarks, and the impressive Château d’Annecy, offering panoramic views over the town and lake. Stroll along Rue Saint-Claire, filled with boutiques, cafés, and bakeries that reflect the city’s vibrant spirit.

After the introduction, enjoy free time to relax by Lake Annecy, explore local markets, or simply soak in the alpine scenery.

Choose between a 45-minute guided walking introduction or independent exploration. The excursion duration is flexible, ranging from 5 to 8 hours or up to 10 hours, depending on the season and availability.
