I debated buying this card and I am so glad that I did. I picked up my Zurich card at the airport office (which was easy to find) and used it for transportation into Zurich. We walk a lot so we didn’t use the trams much but we still got value through the entry fees that were waived by the card. The Beyer watch museum alone was asking others to pay 20 CHF for this small (yet interesting) museum. Glad we bought this card.

This card is beyond worth it to see all the sites in Zurich. Some city cards only provide discounts but with the Zurich card there are so many free opportunities to take advantage of that I was almost overwhelmed. It enhanced my experience so much in the city

Již první den se nám karta zaplatila. Prohlédli jsme si město i z lodě, tramvaje i lanovky. Hned první jízdu tramvají nás kontroloval revizor a ten den ještě dvakrát. Jezero jsme prokřižovali několikrát. Jen jsme třeba poodjeli a vykoupali jsme se na další pláži. Suvenýry, kávu i snack jsme měli se slevou.
