Such a fun tour, even on a snowy day! Due to weather, we didn’t have the typical clear views of the lake while we were on the ferry, but such is life. You can’t control Mother Nature! Gil was an excellent guide, and my family (2 adults + 1 six year old) throughly enjoyed this 1/2 day adventure while in Zürich!

Monique was an excellent guide which made the tour very worthwhile. Interesting but not over top info on Zurich nice boat trip & Lindt very busy but good. Despite all the snow Monique helped us return to Hauptbahnhof. Well done

The guide was excellent and the places visited en route were well chosen with enough time allocated at each stop.
