Beskrivning
Discover Vevey beyond the guidebooks with a local guide. Explore hidden gems, the charming old town and the lakeside while uncovering the stories that bring this beautiful town to life.
Welcome to Vevey, discover this town the way a local friend would show it to you. Your host Manuela takes you from the lively Place du Marché to the quiet corners of the Old Town that most visitors walk straight past.
Along the way, your guide brings Vevey's past to life with fascinating stories, surprising facts and the people who shaped this remarkable town. You stand beside the last stretch of the medieval walls, hear how the town inspired Jean-Jacques Rousseau long before modern tourism existed, and pass the Russian Orthodox Church of Saint Barbara to learn why Russian aristocrats once chose this peaceful town as their winter retreat. At the waterfront you admire the Giant Fork, the landmark of Vevey, rising from Lake Geneva, discover how Henri Nestlé built one of the world's most influential food companies right here, and hear why Charlie Chaplin chose Vevey as his final home. The walk closes with the story of the Fête des Vignerons, a UNESCO listed celebration that happens only once every generation.
