Great tour

We enjoyed the experience, food was good, but a lot of $$ for what you received. Lindt factory shop was first stop, nice to buy something only available there. Our guide was great, he was friendly and informative. The restaurant was very warm. We had snow whilst there. The gondola and walk to restaurant was really enjoyable. I would recommend, but is expensive.

Exceptional experience in Zurich

Our guide Peter was fabulous! This was such a fun tour as well as an amazing food experience. Peter gave a great tour of the city and made it come alive for us. We loved the funicular to the restaurant and the fondue was amazing! Wish I could give this more than five stars!

Our tour guide, Peter,...

Our tour guide, Peter, was very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. We had several stops before we were able to get some beautiful sunset pictures. The fondue was delicious also.
