Drive in Geneva with Sixt
As the second most populous city in Switzerland, Geneva is a hub for French speaking residents and a gateway of transportation to the Swiss Alps. Geneva offers culture, history, tranquility and some of the best shopping in Europe. Centre Balexert is the largest shopping centre with over 110 shops from electrical to cosmetic, or for more traditional shops, browse Geneva's large outdoor markets selling clothes, gifts and ornaments. The imposing Palais de Nations is the headquarters of the United Nations, an impressive building with a fascinating history and importance to our world today. Geneva is a green city with great access to the outdoors, visit Lake Geneva with the beautiful English Gardens near and the Jet d'Eau - a water fountain in the lake which pumps water 140m in the air, best viewed at a distance as you are likely to get wet! If you take a short drive outside of Geneva you can experience the Cable Car of Saleve, set just over the French border, which has brilliant views of Mont Blanc and the Lake Geneva itself. Close by a small French delicatessen shop sells over 100 varieties of cheese, a delight for all the sense! Geneva Airport is located just 2.5 miles outside of the city of Geneva and it runs along the border of both Switzerland and France, so it is well situated for a short commute into the city as well as for travel further afield in either of the two countries.
