Great Intro. to Zurich - What a wonderful introduction to Zurich! Our guide was not only knowledgeable, but was warm and friendly, and seemed genuinely interested in sharing his beautiful city with us. We learned a lot and had a very nice time.

overview and recent history of Zurich - The walking tour was informative and engaging, offering a great mix of culture and insights into everyday life in Zurich. Our guide, who was from Zurich, was friendly, knowledgeable. While it wasn’t a historical tour (what we prefer), the guide did share interesting details about Zurich’s recent history. We had a ride on the cable car up to the University, which offered unique views of the city, and enjoyed traveling between the different sights by tram – a great way to experience Zurich like a local. We took a coffee break by the river and we didn’t opt for the lake cruise, since we had already done one in Lucerne. This tour more than enough to appreciate the charm of Zurich and it's perfect anyone wanting an overview of Zurich and a great introduction to the city

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

Was nothing like the description. Not worth the cost. - Unfortunately this tour was not as described. We had a substitute guide who was nice but didn’t take us anywhere listed on the description except the boat ride. We paid over $800 for a private tour for four people for four hours. It was very disappointing.

It is not the guide's... - It is not the guide's fault as the guide had experienced a major family tragedy that day and thus understandably was not able to do the required task. My feedback is that the tour should have been canceled and I would have understood given the circumstances, rather than still going through with it and covering very little of what was in the agenda. Again, not the guides fault, i have to just give feedback on what i feel was a poor experience and a better decision to just not go ahead given circumstances should have been made.

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!!!
