Great City Tour - Very enjoyable tour of Zurich. Our tour guide Rolf was an excellent guide. Unfortunately the heat that day was a bit tough but the boat tour helped

Seeing Zürich city - I spent 3 hours on a mostly walking tour (with a few tram rides) with Dave who showed me around central Zürich. The tour was thorough, the pace was comfortable, and I felt I was able to get a real feel for the city and it’s residents. Dave was knowledgeable, personable, and friendly. To end the tour, we took the boat cruise which was a great finish.

Don't miss this tour of Zurich - Our guide showed us all the major historic sites, most of them places that aren't in the guidebooks. He tells interesting stories, and has great knowledge and love for the city. An unexpected highlight was seeing the city from the lake side on the boat trip

City with amazing history - Learned history of Zurich I would have never learned elsewhere. Mr Rolf, our guide, knew Zurich very well and provided considerable info. It was a 6 mile walk, kind of hilly, but worth it!

Zürich before heading home - finalized our trip to Switzerland with the tour in Zurich. Was happy to be a little apart from the city-hassle and our tourguide did a great job. He understood what we wanted and didn't bore us with numbers. To get a overview of Zurich it's the perfect tour.

Such a waste of time and hard earned money😢 - Our tour was last Nov 9 at 9:15 am. I can say that this was most terrible tour we've ever had. Such a waste of our precious time in zurich and our hard earned money considering the amount spent on this tour.The tour guide came unprepared,we were supposed to have a boat ride,he said he cant find the boat and that he had a mis understading with the office,he kept telling that the boat ride was too long and it was cold 1.5hrs.Not much info of the places we walked thru as a matter if fact,i was filling the gaps for him of the infos i had from reading about zurich history.This guy is terrible!the only info we remembered was that he has a family in Thailand and he is coming to Thailand. We told him if he cant put us in the boat we might as well proceed to our next sked which was the Lindt tour,we want to ride the bus bec we have swiss travel pass,he said the bus changed sked and put us in a taxi instead and we paid 45francs to the black taxi he put as in. We had a very stressful and expensive day!!!
