From a tour of the U.N.'s Palace of Nations to a cable-car ride for breathtaking views of Mount Blanc, Geneva is sure to impress!
The very embodiment of a storybook Swiss town, Lucerne enjoys an enviable position between Lake Lucerne and the snowcapped Alps. It's a delightful collection of whimsical fountains, half-timbered houses, and covered bridges, and is home to the poignant Lion Monument and charming frescoed Chapel Bridge, the oldest wooden covered bridge in Europe. Stunning panoramic views await from the medieval lookout towers that are part of the city's ancient fortified wall, or if you choose to ascend towering Mount Pilatus by cable car. In the evening, hearty traditional fare of veal, rösti potatoes, raclette, or cheese fondue is easy to find—the perfect ending of a perfect day in memorable Lucerne.
