Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Swiss Franc, CHF
Use bank ATMs for the best rates; avoid currency exchange bureaux at train stations or tourist spots as they charge high fees and poor rates.
Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in shops, restaurants, and hotels; contactless and mobile payments (Apple Pay/Google Pay) are the norm, but keep some cash for small purchases or markets.
Tipping is not mandatory but appreciated; round up the bill or leave 5-10% for good service in restaurants; taxis and hotel staff don't expect tips, though small change is fine.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →An espresso or filter coffee from a supermarket café or bakery kiosk costs around 3.50-4.50 CHF.
A takeaway sandwich or salad from a supermarket bakery (like Migros or Coop) costs about 8-12 CHF.
A main course at a budget-friendly restaurant (e.g., a pizzeria or brasserie) typically runs 18-25 CHF.
The lakeside promenade near the market square has occasional food stalls, but reliable cheap eats are limited; supermarkets offer the best value for picnic supplies.
Migros and Coop are the main budget supermarket chains in this area; Denner is cheaper for packaged goods.
Vevey has a few mid-range chain stores (like H&M and C&A) in the centre; for bargains, head to the weekly market (Saturdays) for second-hand or discount stalls.
The cheapest way to get around is a day pass for VMCV buses (about 7 CHF for a day within Vevey); from Geneva airport, the budget option is a regional train to Vevey (around 20-30 CHF one way) rather than a direct express.
1. Buy fresh food and picnic supplies from Migros or Coop instead of eating out. 2. Use day-passes for local buses to avoid buying single tickets. 3. Visit free attractions like the lakeside promenade and public parks.
