Half-Day Tour of Zurich and Surrounding Area
Roberto was a wonderful guide who showed my two boys and me around Zurich for the day. We stayed in Zurich, didn't have a lot of time and he showed us what a wonderful city it is! We toured the historic districts all while being thoroughly educated on the cities rich history. Then we rode the ferry across the lake, and capped the day off with a nice ride up Adliswil – Felsenegg cable car to a restaurant at the top. https://www.myswitzerland.com/en-us/experiences/adliswil-felsenegg-cable-car/

Highly Recommend
We were met at the train station by Celio. He was on time, professional and friendly. He took us to a mountaintop viewpoint, which was very nice. We visited and saw many points of interest and the tour concluded at our hotel. Celio was extremely knowledgeable regarding Switzerland, Europe and historical information, which made for very interesting conversation. Best tour guide we have ever had and we travel a lot. Highly recommend his tours.
