Nice Tour which gives a flavor of guided walking tour thru city, guided bus tour thru surrounding neighborhoods, short boat cruise on Lake Zurich, and finally entry tickets to Lindt Chocolate museum. Not too short and not too long. Perfect to get a sampling of Zurich if you have 4-5 hours.

It’s a tour in 3 parts which we loved! Bus around the city to learn about the highlights. Then a boat ride on the lake. Finally, tour of house of Lindt. All three were great. Thank you!

Enjoyable, comfortable coach. Nice informative person lending tour. Right amount of time on coach, walk and as much time at Lindt factory as you want.

It was a great way to see Zurich in a day. Also since the Lindt museum sells out quickly, it was guaranteed access. Our tour guide was wonderful.

At the beginning of the tour, our guide stressed how punctual the Swiss are, but allowed people substantially more time to return to the bus, thus by the time we arrived at old town, there was very little time for any "tour" before we had to rush to the boat...not really sure what i paid for?
