We rented a car in Geneva and drove into Annecy, France. Our car was a Peugeot with a GPS screen and in the dashboard where the speedometer is located in the States. This was so terrific in helping us find our way tonAnnecy and back. Crossing the border between Switzerland and France was no big deal... by observing other drivers we were able to negotiate the payment kiosks via credit card, and eventually found ourselves in the old, original village along the Thiou River. There is a large public parking lot near the village where we parked for three hours while walking around.... spoiler- the parking kiosk is only in French so we had difficulty buying our permit until a kind local understood enough English to help us. The village is well preserved, though ancient, with many shops and restaurants to visit. Many chances to purchase souvenirs including street paintings. Absolutely chatmingband a wonderful beginning to our European vacation!!
Great trip. Highly recommend it. Driver/Guide was very nice. Really a pretty village. Had great cheese fondue in a restaurant the Guide recommended and one of the best pastries I have ever eaten in a bakery there.
Transporte y chofer excelente y guía muy buena !! Todos muy amables y serviciales. Conocedores de su trabajo
