Lausanne Prices

« Despite my mixed feelings about the 2018 Olympic Games, we decided to take the kids to the Olympic Museum in Lausanne. Living so close to the Olympic capital and not visiting the museum is simply unacceptable 😄. So, together with the children, we delved into the history of the Games, especially since we always cheer for the Olympians, particularly our sportsmen!

The museum turned out to be very interesting and educational overall; if you have the chance, it’s definitely a must-visit! A ticket for an adult costs 20 Swiss Francs, and if you go as a family, it’s 45 Francs total for everyone, regardless of the number of kids.

P.S. I’ll remember to take photos in the museum 🙂. »

« Swiss highways. 🚗🚙🚚 The Swiss motorways are considered some of the best in the world. 👍 The country started building them only in 1959, weaving stretches through mountains and cutting through thick rock. 🏔️ The first section was opened from Geneva to Lausanne. The first toll road, the Grand Saint-Bernard, opened in 1964. Today, this is one of the few paid routes. Most of the Swiss motorways were built during the Cold War, and they also serve an additional function – to act as emergency landing strips for aircraft. 🛬🛩️

To drive on the Swiss motorways, you need to buy a sticker, which is valid for 14 months (from December 1 of the previous year until January 31 of the following year). It costs around $44. In general, this ends up being much cheaper than traveling through France, for example, where you have to pay different tolls for various road segments. 💰 The fine for driving without a sticker is around $220, and you'll still need to buy the sticker anyway! 😱 »
