5.00I have lived in Zurich for over five years and thought I already knew the city pretty well. But this tour really opened my eyes! The reading alone took almost three hours – I read the text in Russian – and discovered so many exciting facts that I didn’t know about until now. Now I'm really looking forward to going the way in real life. With all the exploration, I'm sure this will take about five hours. I’m curious to experience the city from a whole new perspective and to take a closer look at everything. The author brought the information across so interestingly and vividly that it almost felt like a real journey. I will definitely check out their other tours – especially for other cities. Thank you for the great work!
