Top quality courses in a stunning location – the perfect combination...

...the perfect combination for adult tourists, executives and seniors

Situated at the very heart of Europe, Geneva is a justifiably favourite location for visitors.

The city sits in the shadow of Mont Blanc (Europe’s highest mountain) and the French Alps rise high above the beautiful Lake Geneva. Most visitors will recognize the world-famous water fountain, (le Jet d'Eau) accessible by everyone and rising 140 metres into the air.

Geneva is also famous for being one of the top cities in the world in which people like to live – its cleanliness, security, friendliness and cosmopolitan feel are the elements most cited by those who choose to make their home here in Geneva.

For visitors, the infrastructure could not be better – Geneva airport offers excellent connections to most major European hubs, the trains are clean and as you would expect in Switzerland, always on time. The local public transport system is one of the best in the world, is cheap and even extends to offering boat trips across the lake.

Geneva is a truly international meeting place. Although French is the local language in this part of Switzerland and France is never more than a stone’s throw away, English is also widely spoken. Many leading multi-national companies (eg Procter and Gamble, HP, Rolex) as well as numerous leading banks (UBS, Crédit Suisse, HSBC, JP Morgan, Merill Lynch etc) and countless international organizations (UN, WHO, ILO, UNHCR, WIPO, WTC, WMO) have also chosen Geneva as their home.

Away from the classroom, Geneva offers a huge variety of visitor attractions and has something for every taste including sports, culture, history, art, politics and tourism. In order to allow you to make the very most of your time in Geneva, we offer a wide selection of these activities in combination with your language courses – please click on Our Courses for details.
