A Guide To The Top Things to do in Geneva with Kids

Despite being a headquarters for international diplomacy and a wonderful base for getting into the surrounding Alps, Geneva also has numerous activities to do with kids that aren’t simply skiing and drinking. The age of your child will depend greatly on how much you can get away with here, not because of imposed sanctions but because of the nature of the activities. First things first though and getting from the airport to the hotel can be a hassle on public transport so heading over to enjoycarhire.com where you can grab a great comparison deal can be the top of the list. Start the adventure with St Peter’s Cathedral, which at first glance may appear to be kryptonite for children, however the cathedral has two towers the North and the South, each with their own set of rather long stairs for little legs to climb. You could start in the Cathedral with the secret that it holds another secret to finding the hidden secret arsenal, it does just haven’t found it yet, then a race up the stairs will tire them out before they are wowed by the view from the top, on the way back down the Arsenal is close somewhere so keep all eyes out for it.

Unfair for the kids to be sold a grown up activity like it was a treasure hunt so why not take them on a real treasure hunt through the Franz Carl Weber toy store, there’s a small train that travels around the city so hop on that and get them to spot the toy store. Once you arrive be prepared to spend a few hours in there as it is rather large and filled with some truly wonderful toys, ones that will not only excite but also challenge the imagination of your little people.

They still have the renowned Lego and Barbie to keep the populist in them happy.

If you are in Geneva (Switzerland) during the summer months when the lake is at its most inviting then pop over to the The Baby Plage, the baby beach where the water has been cordoned off to allow for families to have a settled time. There’s a large tree on the sand with a lot of shade to ensure playtime doesn’t become late night heat scream time.

A stroll around the lakes is another fantastic adventure to complete with the kids, there are many stop off points along the way where the large binocular stands let them stare into the cities across the water. When wandering around the final destination to have in mind might be Geneva’s Jet D’eau, big water fountain that shoots up into the sky and has become one of the most iconic spots in the city. Here there are numerous little cafés to take a load off and let the kids have themselves a babycino.
