Day 1: Geneva
Known as "the smallest metropolis in the world" or "the city of peace", Geneva is an international city. Start your visit with a stroll along the lake - with its famous water fountain - then through the narrow streets of the old town, stopping in front of St. Peter's Cathedral and the Reformation Wall. Feel the international charm of the city by visiting the UN headquarters (Palais des Nations) and enjoy its Latin character by discovering its renowned cuisine and wines.
