Hi Heart Voyage,

For security reasons, the guided tour needs to be pre-booked. There are separate tours for groups and individuals. You can book online through the official website. You can find the link on our Geneva travel guide: https://www.myswissalps.com/town/geneva/ (scroll down to “5 things you shouldn’t miss in Geneva”)

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Anna

Hi Anna,

Thank you for confirming that Palais des Nations is not included in Geneva Pass.

And tickets are sold out until December. We are thinking to book a private tour for 5 guests for CHF 296 for 1 hour tour. Wondering if it is worth it.

Thanks Anna.

Hi Heart_ Voyage,

Tricky one. I guess you can always keep tabs on the December dates and perhaps some slots may open up on your dates? If not, opt with the private tour.

Have a think, if a visit to the Palais des Nations is on your “must-do” list. If yes, it may be worth treating yourselves to a private tour. I would imagine a private tour would give you the opportunity to ask questions about each room you visit. It could be additional information would be provided too versus the information provided in a general tour?

Good luck with deciding.

Kind regards,

Yolanda

Hi Yolanda, Yes we booked the private. It may be worth it to learn about United Nations. This is the highlight of our visit Geneva this time. We could not visit it our last 2 Geneve trips.

Thank you so much for your advice.
