5 of the Best Alternatives to Over-Touristed Destinations

Annecy, France, is often dubbed the "Venice of the Alps," so it's no wonder it passes as a delightful alternative to the real thing.

Nestled about 30 miles south of Geneva, Switzerland, Annecy's aquamarine canals, charming bridges, and colorful buildings are reminiscent of Venice's picturesque romance — only without the massive crowds. While Annecy's small city center streets can also get busy throughout the day, it's nowhere near the crowds of 30 million tourists who visit Venice each year. Wander through the quaint old town (Vieille Ville), built around a 12th-century castle, while taking in the preserved medieval streets and lively markets. And yes, you can still get that canal boat ride — complete with beautiful views of the surrounding French Alps.
