Once the richest city in the world, Genoa is a prominent Italian port city. A perfect blend of contradictions, the city's impressive architecture tells of its former glory, while its large student population keeps the city lively and fresh.

Upon arriving, take a walk through the old town to explore a unique mixture of medieval, Renaissance, and baroque architecture along Genoa's caruggi, or "narrow alleys." Experience Genoa's iconic street food at any of the city's many cafes and stalls, and try local treats like farinata, focaccia, and fried fish. Visit the Strada Nuova Museums to be transported back in time to the city's opulent past, or the Galata Museo del Mare to learn of Genoa's extensive maritime history.

To discover Genoa's contemporary culture and vibrant nightlife scene, definitely plan for a night on the town. Genoa is the perfect place to dance the night away with an array of cocktail bars, nightclubs, and jazz clubs.

On the banks of Lake Geneva at the foot of the Alps, discover the polished and cosmopolitan city of Geneva. As the headquarters of many of the world's biggest organizations, including the World Health Organization and World Trade Organization, Geneva can look a little businesslike on the exterior. Still, once you scratch the surface, you'll find there's a lot more to this city than it seems.

Start in the Old Town, often regarded as the most scenic part of the city. The Old Town encompasses the area around the Cathedrale Saint-Pierre, and it's filled with many local boutiques and cafes. Then, to see just how old Geneva is, visit the archaeological remains of a 4th-century basilica beneath the cathedral. Next, walk along the Rue du Rhone or the Rue du Marche to see the expensive side of Geneva, home to many high-end shops and watchmakers; just remember, the price tags are not for the faint of heart!

As Lake Geneva is one of the largest bodies of water in Western Europe, it has naturally attracted the attention of watersports enthusiasts. Water skiing and sailing are some of the more popular activities, but you can also swim in the crystal clear waters of the lake. If traditional skiing is more your style, take a bus across the French border to Chamonix, where you can take a cable car up Mont-Blanc.

Bus service connects Geneva to more than the Alps, though. Carriers like FlixBus and BlaBlaCar Bus offer routes to Geneva from cities like Paris and Milan. Plus, Geneva is well-connected by its large international airport and train station, so you really have no reason to skip a visit to this gem.
