4.00Jolita was a perfect tour guide. She’s so friendly and understanding. Gonna give her 10/10 point for her professionalism and care. Very nice in hospitality and service. Yet, the tour quality is like… just ok. It would be better if we could try more foods/drinks because I feel like it’s not enough regarding diversity (not quantity).
Amazing experience!

5.00All the food we tried was delicious. Our guide was very friendly. I was surprised the tour was still happening with it being the day after Christmas and most shops/restaurants being closed, but really enjoyed it.
Awesome tour guide & delicious food!

3.00Food tour was as expected and history talks were good. Our tour leader Teresa endeavored to be entertaining and funny. Although I am not a religious person, but I found her attempts to be funny regarding Catholic saints’ miracles, or the miracles of Christ to be dismissive. I’ve never heard another tour guide be so disrespectful of religious miracles. It was offensive specifically to Catholics and also to Christians writ large. Other than that, I thought the tour was expensive for the food we received.
Fantastic Zurich Food Tour
