What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Rapperswil

   1 hr

   You will start this full-day private trip right from any suitable location for you in Zurich. Sit back and dive into the fairy tale with extensive valleys, crystal blue lakes and untouched fields. You will have a stop at the Swiss medieval Town of Rapperswil, which also known as the “Town of Roses”. Over six hundred varieties of roses bloom here from June to October, turning the whole place into a dreamland. Here one can also admire the charming castle along with the Lakes Zurich and Obersee. The castle was built in the early 13th century on a rocky hilltop. It is surrounded by the present cemetery chapel and the former Stadtmuseum of Rapperswil.

2. 2

   Vaduz

   1 hr

   The most important landmark of this city is Vaduz Castle itself, which is the palace and official residence of the Prince of Liechtenstein. It was constructed in the 12th and underwent a major restoration in the 20th centuries. Unfortunately, it is closed to the public eyes as the princely family still lives there. The Cathedral of St. Florin, Government House and City Hall are also noteworthy sights. They are displaying different styles and periods of architecture.

3. 3

   Heidiland

   30 min

   Next, we will proceed to Maienfeld, where the well-known Heidi village is located. Therefore it is also being called Heidiland. The view will transport you back to the times when the world famous children’s story was created. A short walk will unravel a collection of beautiful mountain houses, tiny shops selling local products, and of course lots of baby goats.
