What To Expect
Old Town
Get ready with us to live an experience across Swiss traditional flavours! During this walking food tour you will discover some hidden gems of Zurich cuisine, but also regional and national delicacies, with the help of our Local Expert. At the end of the tour, you will have eaten the equivalent of a full lunch! Please, bear in mind that the tastings here described may change according to the season and the availabilities of our partners.
Niederdorf
We will start your culinary journey in Niederdorf, a lively neighbourhood of the Old Town, near the shore of Limmat river. Here, you will see where the locals go shopping, discover adorable artisanal boutiques full of various products, and of course enjoy some local cuisine! At lunch, we will start with a staple of Germanic cuisine: the iconic bretzel, a heart-shaped bread with a knot at its center, symbolizing union. You will try it plain or in a typical Zurich style - with some butter inside! At dinner, get inside one of these local boutiques and indulge in a sweet tasting of traditional honey-flavoured biscuits, called Tirggels, and discover their (festive) history! And after that, you can't miss a tasting of another Swiss product that doesn't need any presentation: Alpine cheese, in different shapes, flavours and textures!

Walking Tasting Tour: Not for the “Just Enjoy” Type
Viktorija B,May 23, 2026
- Review from Viator
3.00I wanted to show up, taste things already prepared, and not think about anything. A simple, worry-free tasting experience. This tour isn’t that. You get a budget and venues, you choose what to order at each stop. The guide keeps later locations a surprise, so you can’t plan ahead. It means deciding, spending, calculating as you go. By the last venue, if you want something more substantial, you might not have enough left. Maybe I misunderstood the description—but other tasting tours I’ve done worked differently, so this felt like an outlier. If you like curated menus and want to just enjoy without choosing - skip this. You’ll be disappointed. If you like exploring independently and don’t mind managing a budget - you might enjoy it.
