Overview

Zermatt is known for its Christmas markets, but if you’re new to the city, you won’t know the best market to visit or which local treats to try. This private market tour covers several of Zurich’s beloved seasonal markets, including Münsterhof and Hauptbahnhof with its crystal-decked Christmas tree. Explore at your own pace, hear personalized tips from your private guide, and enjoy samples of Swiss fondue, “öpfelchüechli” (fried apple), and more.

Start and finish the tour at easy-to-find, central Zurich locations
Find the most photogenic backdrops at sites such as Lindenhof
Avoid touristic souvenirs and find local handicrafts and treats instead
Learn about Zurich’s Christmas traditions from your own private guide

Family vacation

Our family only had 1 day in Zurich and the tour was a great introduction to the history of the city and the Christmas markets.

We're always working to improve, and your kind words are the best motivation. Thanks for joining our tour!

Disappointed

Odeh_K, Dec 2022

Ok overall! Not worth the cost! While the title of the tour is “Christmas” related, there was not much there to show or visit! We asked the tour guide and he was not necessarily with it! S For 2 hours we just walked different streets… and a couple of Christmas markets - which we could have done on our own!
