Great tour - Guide was very knowledgeable and easy to understand and welcomed questions. Anna also recommended restaurants and Coop for shopping and things to do on our own. Tour was 4 hours walking with a couple of opportunities to sit. Very very good tour. Again, Anna was great

If I could give ten stars I would!! - Our tour guide Anna was delightful, she was incredibly knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend the morning listening to her. She showed us hidden gems you’d never even know were there and we enjoyed every second of our time with her. If you’ve only got four hours and want to know about the history of this beautiful city, I thoroughly recommend booking this tour.

Full of knowledge and insight on the culture, history and characters of the brilliant City. It is always nice to have someone who is proud of their heritage and hometown as well as the knowledge to be your guide.

Excellent in-depth tour with secret access. Enthusiastic wonderful guide Anna. - Definitely take the time and do this walking tour. Anna was so knowledgeable and happy to share her city with us. We got to see places that we wouldn’t have been able to access without our guide, she has secret keys! We covered a lot of area and I really feel we got an in-depth look at Zurich. History Architecture and Culture. Excellent experience.

Travel back to the ancient days in Zurich.... - We met Anna, the experienced guide with long hair at the Central station on time. Anna gave professional and historical information on various spots of Zurich. As a former teacher, Anna's teaching was inspiring. We learned the revolutions of Zurich and stories of famous people in the walking tour. The secret places (hidden gems) were impressive to the degree that we went into ancient times, like Harry Potter, it is highly recommended tour.

Excellent experience - Anna was excellent. She’s knowledgeable, professional and I have learnt a lot about Zürich throughout the trip. I was the only one in the tour and Anna had not cancelled on me. It’s like a private tour with all the attention needed. I would recommend this tour to anyone in Zurich. I truly enjoyed the time, with good cheese, drinks and chocolates too! There were truly some hidden gems in the tour, try it out!

Thousands of Years in a Few Hours - Anna is articulate with comprehensive presentation: education, science, religion, politics, architecture and the delicious bits of Zürich. Loved exploring beneath the city and circumnavigated the old city. 12,000 steps, comprehensive restaurant & bar tips - wrapped up in enthusiasm
