    Not exactly as advertised. You will spend 80% of your time on the bus. The Old Town walking tour was 10 minutes. The ferry ride is via a car ferry which move the bus across the lake - again about 10 minutes. Deceptively advertised!

    I didn’t like that it was in Spanish and English. I thought I signed up for English. So I think it could’ve been Better I signed up for an English chore. There’s only one Spanish-speaking on our bus. I think it should’ve been on another tour not ours. but otherwise our guide did her best !

  • Wonderful tour!

    Comprehensive, educational and fun! Loved seeing the different areas of Zurich, especially from the ferry over the lake and from the top of the hill from the cable car and mountaintop restaurant. I was a hit with my family for booking this excursion for all of us!
