A trip to Montreux will be music to your ears
Montreux is one of our popular travel packages to Switzerland, thanks to the vast variety of attractions for all ages. Located on Lake Geneva, you can travel back in time on a paddle steamer, which is a wonderful way to see some of the sights and fully appreciate the views.
If you’d rather be looking over the lake and mountains from dry land, Montreux has a magnificent promenade, which stretches for around 6km. The route will take you past the gorgeous Chillon Castle, thought to date back to the 11th century.
Montreux is also famous for its annual jazz festival, held every July. It attracts many of the world’s most talented musicians, and the combination of great tunes and world-class scenery makes it an unforgettable experience.
If you prefer rock music, there’s the Queen Studio Experience. The band’s lead singer, Freddie Mercury, had a home in Montreux and used to visit for songwriting inspiration.
