“Enjoyed and a great way to visit the lindt home of chocolate. Booked it last minute due to not being able to find tickets. You get first into a bit coach and you get a good drive through the city. The guide give good and interesting information. Next we went to the harbour (could have been skipped 10min stop). Next we had a little walking tour. Really enjoyed it and the guide gave some great recommendations. Then we all boarded the boat and went to the chocolate factory. From there once you are given your tickets, it is free time. So I liked it.”

Zurich highlights by AC coach and guided Old Town walk, with an optional FIFA Museum ticket. 2h15, English.

“The tour could have been so much more. As the bus is going through the city the guide points out the business buildings. Banks, insurance companies, etc. There is plenty of time to tell the story of the city. They could have given some history of the city, what makes it unique compared to other European cities. The buildings shown are all "relatively" new (18th Century) though the city is more than 2000 years old. So much more story to tell.”
