EXPERIENCE THE CULTURE BEYOND THE MOUNTAINS
"To see the whole of Europe you do not need to go any further than Switzerland". This is so true since the country offers the most amazing contrasts and experiences.
Switzerland is a land of extremes - from the snowy summits in the Alps to the Mediterranean feel of lake shores - from the French to the German, to the Italian and to Rumantsch. Four different people with four different cultures and languages, who have learnt to live very well together
The history of Switzerland goes back 700 years, but there was civilisation here at the cross-roads of Europe long before that. Switzerland has been fortunate enough to retain much of its architectural and cultural heritage.
Everyone knows Switzerland as a land of unsurpassed natural beauty... but there is far more to experience. Come and see for yourself!

Geneva
Nobody should pass through Geneva without seeing its monuments and historical sites. We will take you to the most important ones in three hours, including the symbol of the city, the famous "Jet d’Eau"; this impressive 460ft (140m) high, lake water fountain, the first of its kind, was completed in 1891. The flower clock in the English garden is another symbol of Geneva, known all over the world. The monument of the Duke of Brunswick, who left his entire fortune to the City of Geneva, is located right on the opposite side of Lake Geneva.
The historical Old Town will be visited on foot to discover its carefully preserved charm. The Cathedral Saint-Pierre constructed in the 12th and 13th centuries dominates the Old Town. Right next to it is the Auditorium, where Jean Calvin taught. Calvin arrived in 1536 in Geneva. A leading figure of the protestant Reformation, he deeply influenced religion, ethics and social life in the western world. The oldest privately constructed building is the Maison Tavel, now transformed into a museum of old Geneva. With its parks and gardens, its monuments and museums, Geneva is today truly international and cosmopolitan, not only in population, but also in its whole atmosphere.
Zurich
Enjoy a 2-hour sightseeing tour of the highlights of the bustling centre of Swiss economy. You will meet your guide directly at your hotel. Walking tour and visit to the Old town with its famous Cathedral, the lake promenade, the "Bahnhofstrasse" shopping district and much more.
After this first part of the tour you will board a small city train which will bring you in 20 minutes from the bustling city center to the forests of the Üetliberg hill. From the Üetliberg train station you will enjoy a magnificent view over Zurich and its region
Conventions and Congresses can be held in several Swiss cities: Geneva and Zurich with their International airports, then also Lausanne, Montreux, Basel and Lucerne or even Interlaken, Davos and Lugano for smaller events.
Geneva offers space in Palexpo, the large exhibitions and conventions centre by the airport, in the CICG (International Conference Centre) and the Casino of Geneva (below the Noga Hilton).
In Zurich, the 'Kongresshaus' (Convention Centre), the "Messe Zurich" (Exhibition centre) and the Swissôtel offer good convention space.
TRANSPORT WITH A DIFFERENCE
From helicopters to paragliding down from the mountains, from old timers to postal buses, from panoramic trains through the mountains to private sailing boats on a lake, from dog sledging to ice driving, these are only some of the ideas we can put together.
GOLF AT 3000M ABOVE SEA-LEVEL
Hold your breath and take off in a helicopter to the the Glacier of Diablerets. After a flight of approximately 12 minutes, you will be deposited on the highest mini-golf course in Switzerland built especially for you. You will play directly on snow with fluorescent balls. Feast your eyes on the panorama surrounding the whiteness of this dazzling 'green'. Before rejoining the valley, an open bar specially made for the occasion will offer you refreshments.
