We had an amazing time on our Zurich city tour with Bruno! He is a local resident with a deep knowledge of Swiss history, traditions, and culture. His storytelling made the city come alive, especially when he shared the fascinating history of the Roman baths in Old Town and the beautiful Fraumünster Church. The bus tour was well worth it, providing stunning views of Zurich, and the visit to the hill with a small restaurant was a highlight. If you're looking for an informative and engaging tour, I highly recommend

The tour was great! Our guide, Diego, was exceptionally good. He knows a lot about Zurich’s historical sites and had many great stories about them. The ferry ride across the lake was fun. The cable car ride up to Felsenegg was a highlight. It is a beautiful area with great views. The restaurant was a great place to stop for a meal, snack or a beverage. Our driver, Manuel, was very skilled and got us through some congested areas.

It was great and fun, very educative But I didn’t understand the cruise part and also the cable car was so filled up and the forest tour should be more understanding.

Our tour was very informative. Our guide Elizabeth was very enthusiastic and she knew a lot about Zürich and Switzerland.

Best tour in a layover of 8-10 hours. On time and all instructions provided were clear
