Description
Discover Zurich’s rich history, vibrant culture, and stunning views on an exclusive tour. Enjoy hidden gems, a chocolate tasting, and panoramic vistas, plus valuable tips to enhance your stay.
Zurich is a city full of stories, culture, and hidden treasures. On this tour, I want to show you not just the well-known sights but also the hidden corners that make Zurich so unique. We start our journey at Zurich's main train station, an architectural masterpiece and a bustling hub of the city. From there, we explore the magnificent Bahnhofstrasse before delving into the historic Niederdorf district, which exudes a special charm with its narrow alleys and old buildings.
During the tour, you will learn all about Zurich's and Switzerland's eventful history, discover the country's fascinating customs, and gain insights into the famous "Swissness" that defines the lifestyle here. A special highlight is the chocolate tasting at Läderach – an indulgence not to be missed!
The crowning conclusion of the tour is a ride on the Rigiblick funicular, which takes you to Zurichberg, where you can enjoy a spectacular view over the city and Lake Zurich. This tour is not just a journey through Zurich, but also a journey through the culture and soul of Switzerland.
