What to expect

Capture striking views of pristine Lake Zurich during a photo stop at Enge harbour. Drive by the well-established Opera House to the prestigious Zürichberg district and tour Zurich's most exclusive residential district. After a short glimpse of the city, the lake and the snow-covered Alps, you continue past the university quarter to the Old Town. Admire splendid guild houses, Zurich's Town Hall and its emblematic churches on a guided walk through the medieval streets.

Continue along the picturesque Limmat river to the port and embark on a pleasant half-hour boat trip on the pristine waters of Lake Zurich. A lovely 15-minute stroll along the shore takes you to the Lindt Home of Chocolate by Swiss star architects Christ & Gantenbein. Marvel at its vast atrium with the world's highest freestanding chocolate fountain - the perfect spot for your souvenir photo. Join an interactive audio-guided tour through the chocolate museum and journey the history of chocolate from bean to bar followed by unlimited chocolate tasting.

On the way back, your guide shows you how to navigate the city by public transport and accompanies you to Zurich Main Station by trolleybus and tramway. While your tour ends here, your 24-hour ticket allows you to continue exploring the town like a local and make use of Zurich’s excellent public transport system.
