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. SUMMER (April - October) tour starts 9:45 AM at LANDESMUSEUM (Museumstrasse 2); WINTER (November - March) tour starts at 11:45 AM at LIMMATHOF Hotel (Limmatquai 142).

After a short funicular ride, we will reach Polyterasse, the place where the tour begins. After a short introduction to the city, you'll enjoy breathtaking views overlooking the Old Town and the Alps.
Lindenhof is an oasis at the heart of the city that offers glorious views of the Old Town, Grossmünster, City Hall, the Limmat river, the University of Zurich, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.
Visit the heart of the financial disctrict, the headquarters of some of the largest Swiss Banks, and stroll along Bahnhofstrasse - an exclusive shopping avenue.
A guided walking tour can enrich your experience of an unfamiliar city and the experience is likely to feel more intimate on a small group tour. Strolling around the heart of Zurich you'll get familiarised with the highlights of this medieval town and our guide will bring a deep historical, cultural and entertaining perspective to it.
After the city tour, we are heading to Burkliplatz to take the ferry for a 90 minutes cruise on Lake Zurich. You'll pass nearby Lindt Chocolate Factory and you will admire one of the most expensive areas along the "Golden Coast", where celebrities as Tina Turner are living.
Its most stunning treasures are the stained glass windows: those in the north transept are by Augusto Giacometti and the five-part cycle in the chancel and rosette in the southern transept the works of Marc Chagall.
