5.00Great time on this tour. With the combination of a bus and walking tour, our family learned a great deal about Swiss culture, history, and Zürich proper. Our guide, Sandra, did a fantastic job, was knowledgeable, and made the day fun. She took great care of us. The bus operator was a phenomenal driver. The lake cruise was awesome and Lindt chocolate tour was unbelievable. We only had two days in Zurich and this tour was perfect. Highly recommended.
A Must See While in Zurich

Needed a better tour director

3.00The sites visited were as expected (especially the Lindt chocolate factory) and the lake cruise was nice. The tour director was not the best though. She spoke in a soft monotone on the bus, and when we asked if she could turn up the volume on the microphone we got a lecture about how no one has ever complained about her voice. When it was time to leave the Lindt factory, she just walked away and expected everyone to follow her. We didn't hear her call everyone together or even take a headcount. Luckily, no one was stranded. All in all, we think this would have been much better with a different tour director.
Fun tour. I like...

5.00Great way to see Zurich and its highlights. Our guide was knowledgable and made the tour interesting. I did both the Lindt Chocolate and FIFA tours and would recommend both as optional extras to consider.
