Immerse yourself in the history of Lavaux terraced vineyards and try local wine, enjoying the views on lake Geneve and the Alps
I invite you for a picturesque walk through Lavaux, the Switzerland's largest contiguous vineyard area with almost one thousand-year history. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Lavaux wine region is famous for its unique landscape, long traditions and absolutely stunning views! Stretched on 32 km. between Lausanne and Montreux, this region is the most instagrammable location on the Lake Geneve shore. Apart from enjoying the atmosphere and the scenery, you will learn the history of the region, the varieties of grapes that are grown here, the local wine’s characteristics and why only around 1% of Swiss wine is exported. And for a complete immersion in the Lavaux charm you will visit the local winery for a wine tasting! Please note, the tour is roughly 4 km in length and it is mainly hilly. Comfortable foot wear and a bottle of water are strongly advised Since the local wineries are not open for public every day, kindly ask you to get in touch with me before requesting the tour.
