Wow.... what a perfect travel plan by Europe tours, from Zurich to Geneva with major airports connected. This itinerary makes sense, and also looks good who are coming from France to Switzerland going there. Hardly any major city is left between Zurich and Geneva, majorly Swiss capital Bern also covered. Really excellent itinerary!
