This was a very well-organized tour of the major cultural and historical highlights of the city of Zürich. The bus was easy to find and we departed promptly into the city traffic. Our guide gave excellent commentary over the course of several hours in English and Spanish. The vehicle ferry across Lake Zurich was a nice touch, as was the cablecar ascent in Adliswil. The peak boasted great views of the region complemented by a nice treat at the Felsenegg restaurant—though it was an overcast day for us. We concluded with a brief walking tour of the Altstadt.

Zurich is absolutely amazing, no doubt about that but out guide was the highlight of the trip. The weather was not at its best as it was raining but out guide, Daniel made the day so much brighter with his sense of humor.

For an international traveler it was very good. I got to see many things in just a day which I think I could not do by myself. The tourist guide tried a lot to entertain us and was nice too.

It was wonderful trip around Zurich. Best value for money. The guide was awesome and very entertaining and helpful. Full 5*

The places is beautiful. The service was exceptional!
