In this 2 hour sightseeing tour of Geneva at sunset, you will see the very best of this stunning city.
Lake Geneva/ Jet d’eau
The Jet d’eau is Geneva’s trademark, a water fountain in the harbor that shoots half a cubic meter of water per second up to a height of 140 meters. Close to the fountain are wonderful city parks like the Jardin Anglais, a huge selection of lakeside restaurants and cafés and beautiful spots for sunbathing, like the famous Bains des Paquis.
Flower clock
The clock, situated at a corner of the Jardin Anglais, was created for the first time in 1955 and contains about 6,500 flowers and plants. The floral arrangements change according to the season. The flower clock is not only pretty, it also tells the time with Swiss precision. The time you see is transmitted by satellite. The seconds-hand is 2.5 meters long, the world’s longest!
ParcDesEauxVives
See the stunning Parc Des Eaux Vives, and the wealthy suburb of ‘Cologny’ with its mansions and impressive architecture, you will have the most incredible photo point for a view out across all of Geneva - not to be missed.
United Nations
The office of the United Nations in Geneva is the European headquarters of the UN. The building complex, called the Palais des Nations, houses the UN Human Rights Council as well as the UN Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights, among other agencies. Just in-front of the UN you’ll see the famous 10 meter high ’Broken Chair’ sculpture.
