Overview
Zurich has a beautiful, historic old town. Many of the buildings are several hundred years old. In small groups, local residents will guide you for about two hours through winding alleys and cosy squares, right across the old town on both sides of the Limmat river. We will visit places where you can feel the rich history of the city and which can only be reached via special access.

It was not we expected in...
It was not we expected in a city tour. Our guide appeared to be unprepared, unprofessional, and negative.

Great personal tour
We had an excellent and informative tour. Our tour guide is a long time resident and knows all the history, details & interesting stories. She was able to get us into special places that you wouldn’t even know were there. This was a more petsonalized tour, better than a big bus tour. This is definitely a tour you don’t want to miss.

Good overview of Zurich
A three hour walking tour that included a tram ride, hills, and stairs. Our guide, Sophie, was excellent and had a lot of information to share.
