Historical and Cultural Tour of Lausanne
Discover the majestic city of Lausanne. Walk through the historic city center, feast on traditional Swiss cuisine and end the night with an intimate fondue dinner at a local eatery.
- Your date begins with a meeting in the city center. A local guide takes you on a walking tour through Lausanne's historical landmarks. You'll both learn about the city's rich history, its architecture, and its people. After the tour, you'll stop for a traditional Swiss lunch at a local café.
- The afternoon involves a visit to one of Lausanne's most prestigious museums - The Olympic Museum. You'll explore the exhibits and learn about the history of the Olympic Games and Switzerland's achievements.
- The evening concludes with a cozy fondue dinner at Pinte Besson, one of the oldest restaurants in Lausanne. You'll dine by candlelight, surrounded by the warm, historic interiors of the restaurant.
Preparation steps:
- You should prepare for a day of walking, so it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes. It might be a bit chilly, so dress in layers to stay warm.
- Inform yourself about the history of Lausanne prior to your visit. This will allow you to have an even more engaging experience while on the tour and during your visit to the museum.
- Making reservations for lunch and dinner in advance is recommended to secure your spots, busy restaurants may not have vacancies.
