Geneva
Getting around
Walking is feasible enough for the heart of Geneva, and even getting to further-flung attractions such as Carouge or the UN takes only twenty to thirty minutes on foot, but you'll probably resort to city transport once or twice. Trams and buses form the core of the transport network, and renting a bike can make sense.
Taxis are only for the rich and famous. You can hail them in the street, take them from ranks at the station and elsewhere, or order them (
