Get in

Morzine, a charming Alpine town, is perfectly situated less than 90km away from the international airport in Geneva, Switzerland. Many low-cost and European airlines offer regular affordable flights from major EU hubs, making it a convenient destination for travelers. While there is no direct rail link from Geneva or Paris, the most efficient way to travel to Morzine is by road. You can opt for a car hire from Geneva or take advantage of airport transfer services. The main access road is the A40 or white motorway. When hiring a car, be mindful of Swiss road taxation badges, as they are mandatory for traveling on Swiss motorways. Swiss car hire companies typically include these badges in the price, but French companies might not, so it's important to check beforehand. Another option is to book a transfer with one of the many companies in the area. Morzexpress [1] provides a daily timetabled service for 28 Euros, with departures every 45 minutes. Geneva-Airport-Transfers.com [2] (GAT) offers reliable and reasonably priced private and shared transfers in both winter and summer, starting from 21 Euros per person for a single journey, which can be booked and paid online.

The first popular French dish is Ratatouille, a colorful vegetable stew traditionally made with eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, and seasoned with herbs such as thyme and basil. This hearty, non-meat dish is typically served alongside grilled meats or fish.

Another famous French dish is Coq au Vin, a braised chicken dish that originated in Burgundy. It involves marinating chicken pieces in red wine with mushrooms, bacon, onions, and garlic before slow-cooking them until tender and flavorful. The final dish is often garnished with parsley and served with potatoes, noodles, or bread.

Lastly, the iconic French dish, Croissants, are flaky, buttery pastries made from layers of laminated dough, which are then curved into a crescent shape and traditionally served for breakfast or as an afternoon snack. Although they are not typically a savory or sweet dish, croissants can be filled with various ingredients like ham and cheese (called a jambon-beurre) or almond paste and sugar (an almond croissant).
