Great “Get to Know” Zürich tour. Very informative, no problems, excellent driver! We enjoyed the tour!
Was great but the bus tour could have given you more stops and to take pictures by the waterfalls would have been nice but overall it was good tour
Nice for people with disabilities, people who don’t have much time or don’t like getting lost and want to know some history
This was an excellent tour of the city, and well worth the cost. The commentary was very interesting & gave insight of the journey taken to reach the Zurich we know today. The coach captain was informative & courteous.
For those short in time, this bus tour provides a good glimpse of the city, both old and new.
The tour was informational and compete. We got to enjoy Zurich to the fullest. Zurich is an amazing beautiful city which we enjoy to the fullest.
