5.00This food tour was a highlight of our trip. Theresa did a great job leading the 6 of us through the center of Zurich to hidden gems with amazing food. We made the mistake of eating breakfast before the tour and our first stop was breakfast! Then we had a second breakfast. Followed by delicious snacks, a sit-down lunch, a liquor tasting and dessert. Oh and there was some history thrown in! It was an easy walking pace with plenty of stops to rest and use the bathrooms. Highly recommend!!!
