Sightseeing
You could walk all the way up to the Jet and on a warm sunny day cool off by being sprayed or jumping into the lake. Or else watch the beautiful rainbows glide in and out of the jet while sipping on a drink or beer right opposite :)

St Peter's Cathedral is what you see from the living room of the apartment. Would advise that you climb to the top of the tower and admire the beautiful 360 degree view of Geneva and the surroundings. You should also see the Catacombs that are under the Cathedral (most people miss this part) and on the side of the Cathedral (access from inside) is a beautiful room which you must see (if not under renovation).
