It was a very hot day, met wonderful new friends and enjoyed the multi lingual tour! We love learning new languages and still got to learn about Zurich. The seats were very comfortable. Our Tour guide was knowledgable, kind and funny. Thank you

No one really to blame, but it being "Spring Festival" the tour really should have been cancelled. We were an hour in traffic just getting out of town. Therefore, the rest of the tour, that we were able to "work in", was hurried through. The guide and driver did the best they could. However, I felt we did not get our moneys worth. Should have cancelled the tour.

The guide was very knowledgeable and she made sure to give us the best experience. She was able to modify the regular route due to street closures in preparation for NYE. She added in the Lindt Chocolate Museum Shop. The cable car to Felsenegg was very cool. Even though it rained, it was a great trip.

Your Experience

If you're looking to explore Zürich, with its austere architectural beauty and beautiful natural surroundings, this 4.5-hour tour pretty much covers it all. Meet your expert guide, and board a comfortable air-conditioned coach to explore the major highlights of the city. Pass by the National Museum, towards Bahnhofstrasse - one of the world's most expensive and exclusive shopping avenues. Enjoy a photo stop at the stunning Lake Zürich, before heading towards the university quarter, to see the famed Swiss Federal Institute of Technology as well as the Zürich Museum of Art.

Enter the charming Old Town, and enjoy a pleasant introductory stroll past patriarchal guild houses. See St. Peter church (Europe's largest clock-face is here), the "Grossmünster" church, and the "Fraumünster" church with the stained glass windows by Marc Chagall. Head out of the city and travel along the “Gold Coast” to Meilen. This is where you board a ferry and cross the crystal-clear waters of Lake of Zürich to Horgen. Move on to Adliswil for the best part of your city tour: a cable car ride! In fact, this is the only aerial cable car in the Canton of Zürich to the viewpoint of Felsenegg. Fall in love with the incredible views overlooking Zürich, the lake, and the snow-capped Alps from here. Breathe in the fresh air of the beautiful forest before heading back to Zürich.
