Are you willing to avoid the "tourist bubbles" and discover the charm of the tiny cobblestone streets in the Old Town, to walk through the parks and pedestrian zones, to feel the smells, to hear the bells, to fill your bottle with fresh water at one of the 1200' fountains that Zurich has to offer, to enjoy the nearby nature oases and to relax on a ferry cruise? This is the tour that offers you a good introduction to Zurich, great photo opportunities, and a 90-minute cruise on Lake Zurich.

4.00This is a fun tour! Greg was such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide. He made it fun! However, it is good to know that the boat part of the tour isn’t really informative. You get to take the boat around the lake (which is nice), but the way it’s advertised describes it like you’ll learn things on the boat. You are pretty much on your own during the boat part. Also, be aware that there are a lot of stairs and steep streets you’ll go on.
Greg was great!
