Full description
Climb aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned coach and enjoy a scenic drive through the Zürichberg district with views of the city, the lake, and the Alps. See the highlights of Zürich, such as the castle-like National Museum, the shopping avenue of Bahnhofstrasse, and the famous financial district. Stop at the picturesque harbor of Enge and enjoy the beautiful vistas of the crystal-clear Lake Zürich. Continue past the Zürich Opera House and go into the Zürichberg district. Admire numerous mansions that reflect the glorious past, and take in the panoramas of the lake and the snow-covered Alps before going to the university quarter. See buildings such as the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETHZürich) and the Zürich Museum of Art. Enter the Old Town to learn Zürich's history during an entertaining stroll through the medieval streets. See the patriarchal guild houses, Zürich Town Hall, and Europe's largest clock face on the Romanesque church of St. Peter. See the imposing cathedral of Grossmünster, and look at the Fraumünster church, whose stained-glass windows are by Marc Chagall. Take a 30-minute boat cruise on the pristine waters of Lake Zürich, then stroll along the shore to the newly-opened Lindt Home of Chocolate. See the world’s tallest free-standing chocolate fountain and join an audio-guided tour of the museum, followed by an unlimited chocolate tasting. Browse the gift shop before returning to Zurich Main Station. Ride the trolleybus and tramway to get familiar with Zurich's public transportation system. While your tour ends here, your 24-hour ticket allows you to continue exploring the town like a local and make use of public transportation.

Really enjoyed the tour, just wished we’d taken more note of how to get back to the city sentry when the tour finished as we wanted to get the most out of the Lindt factory, but we managed it! But was very informative about the city and the guide, Monica, was lovely.

An excellent overview of Zurich, both by bus and on foot. A pleasant short boat ride on Lake Zurich to the Lindt museum which was outstanding. Then a boat ride back to the dock and a tram ride home. (Our tour ticket gave us 24 hours of access to public transportation.) Our guide was excellent and the entire experience was great. I would highly recommend this tour.

Solid. Quite friendly team who unfortunately only explained anything about the buildings when we had already driven past. Very incomprehensible English. The cruise was very pleasant and beautiful, as was the visit to the Lindt Home of Chocolate. You are in the group the whole time until you separate for the latter experience. All in all, it's a relatively good price-performance ratio, but you could also look at everything separately yourself.
