Zürich, Switzerland

Zürich Walking Tour & Lake Cruise

Immerse Yourself in Soaring Architecture and Storybook Charm Take in the impressive sights of Switzerland’s stunning lakeside city by boat and by foot. Enjoy sweeping views of Zürich from its namesake lake, embarking on a scenic cruise along pristine waters surrounded by alpine splendor. Sit back and relax as you marvel at the beautiful surroundings. Next, you will enjoy a guided walking tour of the city’s Old Town, the core of Zürich that was once enclosed by walls. The city is home to many colorful guild houses—former merchants’ quarters that create a fairy-tale aura. Stroll along the quay of the Limmat River, whose waters flow through the city’s heart. View the Rathaus, built in 1690, and the many churches: Fraumünster, which ruled the town until 1336; Grossmünster, founded by Charlemagne; and St. Peter’s Church, which boasts the largest church clock face in Europe. Walk down Zürich’s bustling shop-lined main street before returning to your Hotel. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
