Switzerland
Eurolines offers many direct services from most parts of Europe
to the city centres of Geneva, Lausanne, Bern, Basel, Zurich,
Luzern and St.Gallen.
Geneva
Nestled between nearby Alpine peaks and the hilly terrain of the
Jura, the French-speaking city of Geneva lies in the basin where
the Rhone river leaves Lake Geneva. With its humanitarian tradition
and cosmopolitan flair, the European seat of the UNO and
headquarters of the Red Cross is known as the "capital of
peace".
Bern
Not many cities have managed to retain their historic features
quite as successfully as Bern, the capital of Switzerland. The old
town of Bern has been entered in the list of UNESCO Cultural World
Heritage Sites and thanks to its 6 kilometres of arcades - which
locals refer to as 'Lauben' - boasts on of the longest
weather-sheltered shopping promenades in Europe.
Basel
Located on both sides of the Rhine, in the three-country-corner
of Switzerland, Germany and France, Basel is the third largest city
in Switzerland. Not only diverse cultures, but also a multifaceted
history, modern art and architecture converge here.
Zurich
A "metropolis of experiences" by the water, with magnificent
views of the snow-capped Alps on the horizon, downtown Zürich
offers a unique mixture of attractions - over 50 museums and more
than 100 art galleries, international fashion labels and Zürich
designs, and the most flamboyant and lively nightlife in
Switzerland. Recreational activities range from a visit to the
riverside and lakeside bathing areas in the very heart of the city,
to a spectacular hike on the Uetliberg mountain.
