CHRISTMAS LIGHTS TOUR, TAXIBIKE
by Alana Dunsmore
One of the magical things about Geneva at Christmas – even this year – is the abundant Christmas light displays throughout the city!
Exploring the Christmas lights is even better when you have a cup of mulled wine in hand, we find. There are a few different areas to see the displays and logistically if you want to see them all, it can be hard to organise in one visit – and tough on your feet!
Luckily, Geneva Taxi bike has come up with a great idea this year: A Christmas Lights Tour! We tried the Geneva Taxibike apéro-tour earlier this year – and we loved it.
Booking a Christmas lights tour through them, means they plan it all! Whether it’s on board a TukTuk or Taxibike, all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the mulled wine (or fondue, if you prefer) under a warm, woollen blanket while admiring the twinkling lights!
Choose the length of your tour: 1 hour, 1 hour and 30 minutes or 2 hours – covering the Old Town, des Bergues, des Rues Basses, St Gervais and Carouge.
CITY OF CAROUGE LIGHTS
Some of the main points of interest are the floating fish and the magnificent, illuminated birds perched on the edge of a “water bowl”!
Read our article about where to see the Carouge lights.
CITY OF GENEVA
Geneva’s lights can be admired in around 20 different spots across town. Find out more about the Geneva Festival lights.
CHRISTMAS SEASON MAGIC
In our house exploring the displays throughout the city is a favourite Christmas activity and taking this adventure via a TukTuk would make it an even more fun (and easier on your feet)!
