What to expect

Enjoy a guided bus tour in Zurich and a self-guided cruise on Lake Zurich!

You will board a comfortable, climate-controlled coach and enjoy a guided bus tour to see the best attractions in Zurich. You will admire the castle-like Swiss National Museum, the luxurious shopping avenue Bahnhofstrasse and Zurich's renowned financial district. You will also enjoy the view of the crystal-clear Lake Zurich during a photo stop at Enge Harbor.

You will then continue along the lake, passing the Grand Opera House and the university quarter with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) and the University of Zurich. After this glimpse of the city, the lake, and the snow-covered Alps, you will drive past the “Kunsthaus” art museum down to the charming Old Town. The bus tour includes a short walk of 15-20 minutes through Zurich old town.

Finally, you will reach the nearby Bürkliplatz and embark on your own on a scenic 1-hour cruise on crystal-clear Lake Zurich past grand lakeside villas and popular lidos. Sit back and relax as you listen to compelling stories about the history of the city, the lake, and the surrounding mountains over an audio guide app on your own device before ending the tour at Bürkliplatz.
