Traveler reviews
Best of Switzerland
Please don’t take this trip. Our guide tour was horrible and late also. No microphone. You can’t communicate with guide if you get lost. Terrible experience. Waste of money. Our guide tour name was Verena. Verena was terrible.
Had potential to be good
Was a very hot day in Zurich which started on a bus with no air conditioning and no windows to open. The bus was blowing air that was warm, we couldn’t listen to the guide or concentrate on what she was saying because we were just trying not to pas out in the heat (it was over 90F this day. Not sure why they didn’t use a bus with air conditioning, but it made us hot and tired from the beginning of the tour and we only got some relief later on at the Lindt factory. The guide (I think her name was Angela), was nice and knowledgable. I did a similar tour with Viator two years ago which was a bit better than this- we had more time in the old town with more information and a direct boat which didn’t make as many stops. Overall this tour was just ok
Left behind
For those booking the optional Fifa tour, 1 hour @ Lindt is not enough time as the Shopping experience takes a lot of time. Thankfully the guide advised how to get back to the initial boat stop as when it as time to leave Lindt, I couldn't find him to get on the bus with him.
A good balance - walking...
A good balance - walking tour of old town Zurich, a boat ride on the lake and a tour of the Lindt Factory.
Terrible! Waste of money and time! Heatstroke!!!
This is NOT as advertised and prepare to be underwhelmed. No AC on the bus - and note - the bus will be at least two hours of dreadful heat and a tour guide who can’t explain anything about the city. Save your money! Scam!!!!!!
