Nyon Regional Tourist Office has recently launched a new tourist pass. For just 12 CHF, you can gain entry to nine museums in the area: The Château of Nyon, The Roman Museum, The Musée du Léman, The Château of Prangins, The Château of Coppet, the museum of old Coppet, The Agricultural Museum (Moulins de Chiblins), the Wine Museum in Mont-sur-Rolle and finally, the Basketball Association headquarters in Mies. Even if you only get to visit a couple of places on this list, this pass still turns out to be good value for money, and is a great idea for newcomers to the area, or residents with visitors over the summer months! The pass is valid for a week after the first visit.
