Day Trips in Lake Geneva from Zurich

Day-trips to the Lake Geneva region from Zürich with a chauffeur bring together two of the loveliest sides of western Switzerland: the gentle hills along the water and the cultural variety of the Romandie. SWIVON takes you door to door in a private Mercedes V-Class, the transfer from Zürich is always included, and the price is fixed in advance. You choose the destination and we take care of the rest.

Discovering the Lake Geneva region from Zürich

From Geneva across the Montreux Riviera to the Lavaux wine terraces stretches a landscape set between lake and mountains that rewards a visit all year round. With a chauffeur at the wheel, the trip feels relaxed from the moment you set off: you step in, settle back and enjoy the drive across the Mittelland and along the lakeshore, rather than worrying about the route, the traffic or parking.

Our destinations in the region include Geneva, Gruyeres, the Lavaux wine terraces, the Maison Cailler with its chocolate, the Montreux Riviera, Murten and Fribourg, as well as Chillon Castle. Each of these places has its own character, and you can shape the day entirely at your own pace.

Wine, chocolate and cheese

The Lavaux wine terraces rise in steps above the lake and rank among the most striking vineyard landscapes in Switzerland. Gruyeres tempts with the cheese that shares its name, and close by the Maison Cailler brings the world of chocolate to life. If you wish, you can combine the two into a day of pure indulgence, and because your chauffeur is driving, you can accept that glass of wine at a tasting with a clear conscience.

Your chauffeur waits on site or returns on call, so you never have to keep to a timetable. That leaves time for a second tasting, a longer walk through the vines or a spontaneous stop with a view over the lake.

Lakeside romance from Montreux to Chillon

The Montreux Riviera with its mild setting and Chillon Castle on the shore are among the classic images of the region. A stroll along the promenade, a coffee with a view and a visit to the medieval lakeside castle combine effortlessly. You set the pace, and the private vehicle waits within easy reach once you have seen all you wish.

City and history: Geneva, Murten and Fribourg

Geneva at the western end of the lake blends international flair with a charming old town, while Murten and Fribourg, with their historic lanes and town walls, lead into a quieter Switzerland steeped in history. Whether you wish to explore a single destination at length or combine two places in one day, your chauffeur adapts to your plans.

Who the day suits

A day-trip to Lake Geneva suits couples looking for lakeside romance, food and wine lovers who like to combine the cellar with the chocolatier, and guests who want to discover western Switzerland without a long drive of their own. It is also a relaxed choice for special occasions such as a birthday or an outing with visitors from abroad.
