Lars was an excellent tour guide. We saw a lot of Zurich sites and loved the ferry across the lake and the tram ride.

Sofia was an amazing tour guide, very knowledgeable, helpful and with nice sense of humor. Would definitely like to take her more tours, if available.

This made our trip! We got to see so much of the city & it didn’t take up the entire day. The guide was amazing!

It was a bit cloudy and chilly but the bus was cozy and warm. It was a tad rushed but our tour guide hit the finer points so we could have a basic understanding of the highlights of Zurich. Very good Zurich highlight tour for the money. The ferry was a car ferry but it was scenic and fast across the lake. The cable car was filled to the 30 person capacity but the little restaurant had the top had good food and great views. We had fun pretending to me Swiss yodelers and cow milkers with the props/decoration outside the cute restaurant, which added to the fun and gave us some great photos for our last day in Switzerland!

Just understand, you will be spending most of your time on a bus and then when you get off at locations, you’re rushed with only a few minutes to experience it before youre told him to get back on the bus. Also, the water tour is not a boat, you were just crossing the lake on a ferry for about 10 minutes.

We have a wonderful time and the tour guide Adolfo is so knowledgeable. He also gave everyone the ideas for places to have dinner and other city in Switzerland that we should visit as well.

Not what I was expecting from the description I had read before booking. I was expecting a cruise on the lake, and more free time up on the mountain, not a car carrying vessel whilst still on the bus. After we got off the cable car, there appeared to be a rush to get us to the restaurant so we were back in time for the cable car, 40 minutes in total. There are some beautiful trails up there, but no time to do them

The tour was excellent, the guide is very knowledgeable and has a very pleasant personality. The cable car and mountain vistas were the highlight of the trip for me personally.

This was a good tour the view from falsenegg was amazing the only trouble was the 10 Minute tour of the old city not enough time to get off the bus. Rafael knew a lot and was willing to help out. Antonio was a good bus driver. I had a walker and was treated very nicely
