Zurich has a beautiful, historic old town. Many of the buildings are several hundred years old. In small, private groups, we, two local residents, will guide you for about two hours through winding alleys and cosy squares, right across the old town on both sides of the Limmat river. We will visit places where you can feel the rich history of the city and which can only be reached via special access.

5.00Our tour was fantastic! I’m having a senior moment, because I have forgotten her name. But she was wonderful. We were the only two on the tour, but she did not cancel or reschedule. A huge plus. She took us throughout the Old Town, and even showed us some sites extra because we moved so well. Really a great first day tour to get acclimated to a beautiful city. Highly recommend!
Loved getting to tour...

5.00Maria did a wonderful job telling the history of the city. She spent about 90 minutes, showing us all the hidden treasures on the buildings inside apartments and right beneath our feet she tailored at our experience to our interest.
A good overview of Zurich historical centre
