When we arrived at the bus station, we approached a guy and asked if he was the one who will guide us to the tour. He gave us a big smile and he talked to us politely.We felt so welcomed and relaxed throughout the day trip. Also the tour guide Stephano was friendly and the bus was so clean and comfortable. Trip was amazing!

The day of our travel only one other couple was on board the bus. This led to a casual and intimate chat with our driver. I knew what to expect because I read the information before booking. You will explore on your own. The scenery is so worth the comfortable trip!

    A tour that should not be missed. The Rhine Falls are spectacular. I feel you need a guided tour to get the most out of the Falls. The tour guide was so respectful of my age and inability to do everything. I appreciated that. There was plenty of time to see everything, shop for souvenirs, and get a cup of coffee.

    Over cost

    Tamika_J, Dec 2025

    Ariel_G, Dec 2025
    Like to thank the tour guide who waited for us for a 5 min late into the tour . Description we thought that the boat ride is included as not being mentioned that there is no boat ride during winter time. But we’ve seen boat going on the falls itself so just confusing. Not much information being said by the tour guide about the falls and tour. Just like exploring on your own tour thing.

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Thank you for your feedback, Arial. We're glad to hear that our tour guide was accommodating and waited for you! We apologize for the confusion regarding the boat ride. As the tour description specifies, there is no boat ride included during the winter months. Thank you again for your insights, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future! Keytours team

    Falls are worth it!

    kiwi_B, Aug 2025
    This was not a guided tour. This was transportation to the falls and then you decide what you wanted to do within the time frame allocated. However it was well organized and the bus had air con. Bus driver handed us a snack on return so that was nice.

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback.

We appreciate your comments and hope to welcome you on another tour in the future! Best regards

    Beautiful visit

    Gregory_N, Jul 2025
    Very nice time spent at the falls. We had time to walk the trails in the park giving us several different perspectives of the falls, take a boat to the middle of the falls and relax with a snack afterwards. Very low key and enjoyable time.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the peaceful time at the falls, exploring the trails and taking in the views from different angles. It sounds like the boat trip and relaxing with a snack made it even more special. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing adventure soon!

    Great quick stop before flying out

    jason_s, Jul 2025
    The guide was very nice. This trip was better than our expectations. Make sure you buy the blue tickets as they bring you right up to the waterfall. The hike around after is very easy

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Dear Jason, Thank you so much for your great feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that the trip exceeded your expectations and that you enjoyed the experience— We’re also happy to know you enjoyed the company of our guide.

    Joshua_C, Jul 2025
    We thoroughly enjoyed our excursion. Our tour guide Angelos was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. The falls are beautiful and well worth a visit. One small downside is the hidden cost of the boat ride, which is listed in the included section as optional but no mention at an extra cost. The extra cost is reasonable though and all in all would highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Dear Joshua, Thank you for your kind and thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed the excursion and that Angelos made the experience even more memorable with his knowledge and engaging style. The Rhine Falls are indeed a stunning sight, and we're glad you found them worth the visit. Best regards, The Keytours Team

    Nikhat_A, May 2025
    Lovely, imagine it would be beautiful in the sunshine! It was cold and rainy the day we visited but could see the beauty of the falls. It felt too windy to do the boat ride but that looked to be good in different weather conditions

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Thanks again for choosing Keytours!

    Worthwhile half day trip!

    Drew_G, Apr 2025
    Lots of steps to the river but elevator to go back up. Beautiful rushing water- above, below and under you!

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Thank you for your kind review! We're glad you enjoyed the beautiful views of the Rhine Falls from all angles. It’s great to hear that the elevator made the trip back up a little easier after exploring the many steps down to the river. We hope to welcome you back again for another unforgettable experience!

    Robyn_R, Mar 2025
    We really enjoyed seeing the falls. We were disappointed with our tour guide other than to drive us to the fall and back and to purchase the tickets. He did not interact at all with the group and did not have any information to share or local knowledge. He did offer to take our picture at the Falls.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Guide not good but falls pretty

    Amanda_S, Mar 2025
    Falls were beautiful and we were axle to explore quite a bit. There ample time given to see and appreciate but not pleasant experience with the tour guide. The bus was freezing and wasn’t warm when we arrived. The guide Angelo did not turn on heat until we asked 2x and was heading to the falls. The communication was very bad and not informational. I think Angelo is a nice guy but not meant to be a tour guide.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the beauty of the falls and had ample time to explore. We apologize for the discomfort you experienced with the temperature on the bus. In Switzerland, it's a regulation that we cannot turn on the engine before driving, which can sometimes result in the bus taking a little longer to warm up. We’re sorry to hear the guide didn’t meet your expectations, he's truly appreciated by most of our customer. We value your feedback and will work on enhancing the overall experience.

    It’s was great, except...

    Timothy_L, Feb 2025
    It’s was great, except the hotel room was well below average. Viator needs to find a nicer hotel. I couldn’t even sleep because the bed was the worst I have ever used, and I was deployed in Marines a few times so I have slept in poor conditions in the past!

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Dear guest, I understand your frustration, and I just wanted to mention that hotels are not within our control. Additionally, Zurich is known for being quite expensive when it comes to accommodation. We always strive to provide the best experience possible, but the price and quality of hotels can vary in such a city. Thank you for sharing your feedback! Kind regards

    Missed tour

    Paul_m, Feb 2025
    Didn’t tell us that the bus could be in a different lane and no help from the bus office! Time we spoke to someone they told us we was in the wrong place when we wasn’t! They refusing a refund and credit and we also travelled 4 hours from Geneva with my 7 month old so wasn’t a pleasant day today! Looks amazing though by pictures! Would be a lot easier if they had a contact number easier to speak to as time we got through it was to late

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the difficulties you encountered during your trip. The Zurich bus station is indeed quite small, and we understand how this might have caused some confusion. On that morning, the Swisstours bus was not parked in the location indicated by the sign, but just next to it. It would have been helpful to approach that bus directly. We apologize for the inconvenience and any misunderstanding caused. We also understand that traveling with a 7-month-old baby made the situation even more challenging, and we are sorry for this unpleasant experience. We will take your comments into consideration to improve our services in the future. Best regards

    Amazing!!

    Amy_S, Dec 2024
    This tour was excellent. It was a lovely way to spend a couple of hours in the morning and get out of the city. The waterfall was majestic, and the short loop hike was beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Dissatisfied

    Maxine, Dec 2024
    We just had a bus driver he wasn't actually a tour guide. Didn't inform us much about where we were going or the history of the place we were seeing. It also could have included a tour of the actual town & the other side of the falls. There also wasn't any boat tour available which was very disappointing

    Response from Host, Dec 2024

    Dear guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations. We value your comments regarding the bus driver and the lack of informative commentary, as well as the missed opportunities to explore the town and the other side of the falls. We’ll take your suggestions into consideration for improving our future tours. We apologize for the disappointment about the boat tour not being available, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to have the chance to provide you with a better experience next time. Kind regards
