Zürich in 2 days — FAQ

Is 2 days enough for Zürich?
Two days covers the city — the old town, lake and chocolate — on day one, and Lucerne and Mt Titlis on day two, a great mix of lakeside city and the central Swiss Alps.
What should I not miss in 2 days in Zürich?
The old town and Bahnhofstrasse, a lake cruise, the Lindt Home of Chocolate, and a day trip to Lucerne and Mt Titlis.
Is Lucerne worth it from Zürich?
Absolutely — beautiful Lucerne with its Chapel Bridge and lake, plus a cable car up Mt Titlis to a glacier, makes one of the most rewarding day trips from Zürich, just an hour away.
