What do Charlie Chaplin, Freddie Mercury, Igor Stravinski, and Prince have in common? Well, besides being great artists, they all loved Montreux, and after this day trip, so will you! Enjoy unmissable lake views, as you explore the capital of the canton of Vaud, Lausanne, a city with a medieval heart, set like a rare diamond among the hills, vineyards, the Alps and Lake Geneva.
This authentic corner of paradise and typical postcard landscape has always aroused a sense of beauty and tranquillity in the souls of artists, writers and travellers, proving over the years to be a multi-faceted region. This is where you will find the most beautiful Christmas Market in Switzerland, Montreux Noël, with over 170 decorated chalets, and lots of mulled wine ready to be savoured, or The Montreux Jazz Festival, an unmissable meeting point for music lovers from all over the world.
In the morning, your driver-guide will take you to explore the rocky island located between Lake Geneva and the steep mountains, where the Chillon Castle is located. It is the most visited historical building in Switzerland, and for almost four centuries was the residence of the Counts of Savoy.
Lausanne combines the character of a dynamic commercial city with the location of a holiday resort, as well as being a lively city university and a famous congress centre. You will visit the queen of the old town, the Notre Dame Cathedral, one of the most impressive early Gothic works in Switzerland. Lausanne has a lot to offer to sports lovers too, as it is the seat of the Olympic Committee. Thanks to the latest technologies, experiencing the Olympics up close, what athletes feel and following the history of the Games from ancient times to the present day is now possible at the Olympic Museum, the most comprehensive information centre on the Olympics.
