Read More...We had an absolutely fantastic time in our exchange with Rolf and Consuelo - who have an amazing house and we’re very welcoming hosts. Their house is nestled in the hills just north of Annecy and was a perfect location to explore the area. The local town is crowded in the summer so driving is a pain but we were able to get the free bus straight into the town, or head out into the mountains. And there’s loads to do in the area - we really enjoyed mountain biking and para-penting. Their house is very clean a modern and we a great time playing in the pool and enjoying the vista across the mountains. We arrived to a really lovely home cooked quiche. Then during our stay it was really easy to communicate with them and they were very helpful and relaxed when things went wrong (like accidentally setting off the house alarm!) Thanks again for a fantastic stay! From Steve, Isabelle, Aaron & Samuel

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
We live in the center of the Haute Savoie, near to the Alps. Our house is in Argonay 6 km north to Annecy and about 35 km to the border of Geneva. (Switzerland) The bus connection to Annecy is very good. The bus station is near behind our house. Near to our home you will find soccer, tennis, pump tracking, petanque and block trotting. Annecy is a very touristic region, one of the best places to live in France. You can enjoy the old town (middle age) of Annecy, the rivers, the lake and the mountains.. Participate in a Annecy city tour (annecycitytour.fr) or visit the lake by ship. ( bateaux-annecy.com) If you want, you can enjoy a vol panoramic by helicopter (gyrocopter.fr) or you can make a rest in nice beaches around the lake. You can enjoy a lot of outdoor sport like: paragliding, cycling, walking in the mountains, adventure parks, sailing and canyoning, Block Trotter, golfing and a lot more. Here are a lot of museums and restaurants. We can't tell you where is the best restaurant, because there are about 100's in the town and around the lake. (Le Freti, La Ciboulette, Capt'n Pub, Le Petit Prince, Le Clocher and also some restaurants with Michelin Star. Our tourist office offers Annecy like a vibrant locale and visual jewel. You will see it is true. More info you get in GOOGLE, YouTube and Tourist Channel Annecy. I hope we could give you a small overview about our region.
