Very enjoyable tour of Zurich. Our tour guide Rolf was an excellent guide. Unfortunately the heat that day was a bit tough but the boat tour helped

This was a great tour! Money well spent! Our guide, Enzo, was so personable, so knowledgeable and so engaging. He got to know everyone and made sure no one felt left out. We we're busy every minute and loved it! Highly recommend this tour of beautiful Zurich.

Seeing Zürich city

Published on Mar, 2023

I spent 3 hours on a mostly walking tour (with a few tram rides) with Dave who showed me around central Zürich. The tour was thorough, the pace was comfortable, and I felt I was able to get a real feel for the city and it’s residents. Dave was knowledgeable, personable, and friendly. To end the tour, we took the boat cruise which was a great finish.
