What are people saying about Zurich

Zurich Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen Lungern Interlaken Semi Private

Sherri_S, Jun 2026

Beautiful serene carefree day

We had only a weekend and wanted to make the most of our time. We were also sleep deprived so the luxury of a semi-private tour was well worth the extra cost. No stress, very comfortable, plenty of time to relax and take photos. Our tour guide was patient informative and flexible. This was a trip of a lifetime! Beauty everywhere you looked.

Zurich Walking Tour With Cruise and Aerial Cable Car

SarahK_F, Jun 2026

Fun and informative tour!!

The perfect way to get a great overview of Zurich, learn some history and fun facts, enjoy the breeze and scenery on the boat, and see the amazing view from up top of the cable car! Our guide Vasi (sp?) was so funny and kept the tour lively and engaging.

Jungfraujoch: Top of Europe Day Trip from Zurich

Mrs_M, Jun 2026

Fantastic Experience!

This was a fantastic day trip! We easily met the tour guide and group at the Zurich bus terminal. The bus was air-conditioned and comfortable. The first stop in Interlaken was very brief; we had time to run to the restroom and pop into a souvenir shop. Before we took the cogwheel train, we first took a regular train ride (so it's two train rides). The Sphinx Observatory and Ice Palace were amazing! We spent the rest of our time in the snow in Jungfraujoch. We had plenty of time for lunch, but it was close to 2:00 when we ate. The cable car ride back down the mountain was so fun. Our tour guide was Kid, and he was super organized, hilarious, communicative, and caring. Overall, this was a great way to get to the Top of Europe!

Zurich: Guided Daytrip to Grindelwald, Lauterbrunnen & Interlaken

Kelli_W, Jun 2026

Important tips!

At Grindelwald, if you are planning to do the zip line, first flight or trikes, do them early! The line gets very long! Also recommend eating NOT at the top because the line is long and takes a lot of your time. Eat at a different level or bring your own snacks so you can enjoy the other activities!

Zurich Old Town Walking Tour

Caroline_B, Jun 2026

Great tour of the Old Town in Zurich

We really enjoyed the tour of the old town - learning a lot about life in Zurich past and present and the important people who shaped its history. Our guide Marieanna was great and gave us lot of recommendations of more places to visit on our own. The tour started in the grand station and went on through the old town which is traffic free with stops along the way to find out interesting facts and learn about local landmarks.

Loved this excursion!...

Loved this excursion! George was easy to communicate with on the app and even accommodated me by picking up at the Zurich airport which made this whole trip possible! George was really knowledgeable about the locations we attended and each stop allowed for plenty of time to explore and enjoy the food and scenery. It was very convenient when the tour ended that I was able to be dropped off at my hotel. Highly recommend!

Zurich eTukTuk Private Tour - with Cheese Fondue and Wine

Patricia_G, Apr 2026

Unique Perspective!

Tuk-tuking around Zurich? Such a great way to see the City! Our guide picked us up at the hotel and was immediately engaging and extremely informative. The addition of fondue and wine made the experience truly unique. Winding through small back streets and passing by all the major sites in such a personalized way beats a tour bus any day! The cozy blankets in an unexpected “snow squall” was a pleasant surprise. All in all, a perfect way to spend our first night in Zurich.

Glacier Express, Swiss Alps & Lucerne Tour | From Zurich

Jacqueline_S, Mar 2026

Great day on Glacier Express and Andermott.

Pleasant day, beautiful views. Victor was a wonderful guide. Trip went like clockwork because of his great planning. We went on 6 trains and every one was on time. I could never have planned it so well. Food really good on the Glacier express. Sit on the left side leaving Zürich facing the direction you are traveling . You can really see from everwhere and apparently you need a reservation. Only down side, it was raining in Lucerne.

Mt Titlis Glacier Paradise Tour from Zurich With Lucerne

Katherine_M, Dec 2025

Highly Recommend

The day was seamless. Our tour guide was very informative and gave lots of information about each town that we passed. We did have to wait in a lot of lines to get to the top of the mountain, but I think it was because we went on a holiday. The views were incredible and we enjoyed every second. We wish we had more time in Lucerne.

Mt Rigi and Lucerne Day Trip from Zurich With Boat Ride

Joseph_S, Jul 2025

Mt. Rigi and Lucerne Excellence.

We had a fantastic tour visiting Mt. Rigi, Lucerne with our Boat ride. Cecilia was a great tour guide and very knowledgable. We loved the bus trip, cable car and cog train parts of the trip and found we had of lot of our own free time to hike and look around on the tour and it was very well timed. The scenery was beautiful on the mountain and also on the boat trip. We thoroughly recommend this trip
