One of the foremost advantages of opting for a rental car is undoubtedly the network of well-maintained motorways and picturesque routes that loop around the Lake Geneva region. Remember, unlike in Britain, Swiss drive on the right side of the road!

Car Class Recommendations

Though compact cars are a popular choice for easy manoeuvre in Swiss cities, if you're planning to explore the mountainous terrains, an SUV or a car with a powerful engine might be more suitable.

Speed Limits and Traffic Rules

Speed limits in Switzerland are strictly enforced. Generally, it's 50 km/h in residential areas, 80 km/h outside built-up areas, and up to 120 km/h on motorways. Remember to buckle up – seat belts are mandatory here, a rule that applies to both the front and back seats!

Sights and Attractions

The Lake Geneva region is brimming with both natural beauty and cultural treasures.

The Cities and Their Offerings

You can start with Geneva, famous for its iconic Jet d'Eau and the United Nations headquarters. Other great stops include Lausanne, known for its old town and Olympic Museum, and Montreux, home to the renowned Chillon Castle.

Out in the Nature

Drive through the picturesque vineyards of Lavaux, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, or navigate through the stunning mountain passes of the Alps. The region also offers several beautiful beaches by the lake for a relaxing sunny day.

Climate and Best Time to Visit

The region has a temperate climate, with warm summers and chilly winters. Spring (April-June) and Autumn (September-October) also offer a milder, pleasant weather perfect for exploring. But nothing beats the December Christmas markets!

Local Currency

Switzerland has its currency, the Swiss Franc (CHF). Many places also accept Euro, but it's always a good idea to keep some Swiss Franc for times when card or Euro is not an option.

Swiss People and Culture

The people of the Lake Geneva region are friendly, down-to-earth, and multilingual - it's common to hear locals switch between French, German, Italian, and English!

Seasonal Events

From the vibrancy of Geneva's L'Escalade in December and the grandeur of the Montreux Jazz Festival in July, to the colourful winemakers' festivals in the autumn - there is always a reason to celebrate in the Lake Geneva Region!
