Next summer, dh, dc (6 & 3) and I are going to visit a friend in Switzerland, nearest airport Geneva. We were originally planning to drive down from the NW and combine it with seeing some other friends in France but that’s not happening now so we’re looking at flying instead. I’d like to add 4-5 days on somewhere else to extend the trip. I’d thought of adding a flight to Nice and a few days on the Côte d’Azur or maybe Vienna as dh is keen to go. Both are too far by train with young dc. The flights are more to Vienna but accommodation cheaper so will probably work out around the same. Or we could get the train to Milan and possibly up to Lake Como. It’s about 6 hours on the train altogether but this seems the cheapest option overall. We’re not on a tight budget but don’t want to spend loads for the sake of it. Has anyone been to any of these places and would recommend? I’ve been to Côte d’Azur but as an adult and no dc. Or is there somewhere else we should consider? Thank you!
