Hertz Car Rental in Geneva
If you rent a car in Geneva you find yourself in a sophisticated, affluent Swiss city in the far west of the country, almost surrounded by France. Geneva itself stands at the western end of Lake Geneva, which the French call Lac Léman. It is close to the spot where the River Rhone flows from the lake. Swiss roads are generally very high quality, so with a car you’ll easily be able to explore the attractive surrounding area, including some of Europe’s most picturesque mountains and the lakeside ‘Riviera’ of resorts like Vevey and Montreux. You can even see Europe’s highest mountain, Mont Blanc from Geneva city centre.
Geneva has a reputation as a charitable, diplomatic and financial centre, but it’s a fun city to visit too. If you rent a car in Geneva, you can tour the nearby lakeside and mountain attractions, and see the sights in the city too. One of the iconic landmarks of Geneva is the ‘Jet d’Eau’ – a powerful fountain situated in the lake that reaches more than 450ft in the air. You can see it from the waterfront, and in the streets behind you’ll find a grand old city centre to explore, with plenty of boutique designer shops and fine restaurants. Look out too for a varied collection of art galleries and museums.
