    Was great but the bus tour could have given you more stops and to take pictures by the waterfalls would have been nice but overall it was good tour

    This was an excellent tour of the city, and well worth the cost. The commentary was very interesting & gave insight of the journey taken to reach the Zurich we know today. The coach captain was informative & courteous.
