Not happy with the tour. The Lindt chocolate tour was just okay.
It did not follow the itinerary that was posted. We were supposed to start at 12:15, the day before they changed it to 1:30. The guide was not there on time and what she had on her itinerary, was not what we were expecting. We were expecting a 30 minute boat cruise, the Lindt Chocolate tour, a guided tour of a medieval village and a one hour tour of Zurich. We took a bus for the chocolate tour, she had never been there, we were on a train when we found out it was going to be two hour boat tour, only 30 minutes at the village, and no tour of Zurich. Because of the late start time and two hour boat ride, we realized that we would not get back to Zurich in time for our dinner reservations. We got off the train at the next stop and took a taxi back to our hotel. Seemed very disorganized and not what we had as the itinerary posted on Viator.

Review
Our guide, Ben, was excellent as far as his knowledge and commentary goes. Our only criticism is that he went a bit too fast for all of the group. However we would definitely recommend him to others.

Fabulous tour! Recommend it :) Jhon was the best guide ever
I really enjoyed this walking tour in Zurich! The route was interesting, and I learned a lot about the city’s history and local culture. Our guide was very friendly and patient, taking the time to answer all our questions and making everyone feel comfortable. A great way to discover Zurich — highly recommended!
