We booked this tour once we had arrived in Zurich and we were looking for a quick introduction to the highlights of the city. This was the perfect tour for us, very comfortable touring bus and smooth driving, very knowledgeable tour guide. We had a couple of stops along the way which allowed us to stretch and get a closer look at the harbor, ride the cable car and finally the old village. After the tour, we went back to the Konshaus which the guide has mentioned, and we were tremendously impressed by the museum's collection. So very glad to have learned about it from the tour.

Marc's pride in the city he grew up in was evident but he was careful not to overload us with too much detail. He struck a nice balance between knowledgeable and friendly. He used all of the time and took us to all parts of the city. When we went through the old town he was able to discuss features of buildings that were retained despite renovations and their purpose previously. It was well worth the money and I would recommend Marc as a guide to anyone - especially to English speaking people as his English is fantastic. Thank you for organising the experience.

The tour was generally good and the guide excellent. However, it was a public holiday elsewhere which meant people were coming to Zurich to shop; this caused tremendous traffic problems, meaning we did not have time to stop and walk around the Old Town (which was a planned part of the tour). This was very disappointing and something we'd been looking forward to. The guide knew about this so surely on this day the company could have planned (before accepting bookings) for the tour to last 15-20 minutes longer which would have meant it was not cut short.

The driver arrived on time shortly after we arrived in Zurich after a very long flight. He guided us in a friendly and pleasant manner. He is a careful driver who shared his knowledge with us while we drove by landmarks. We learned about the lay out of the city and the location of places of interest. He even dropped us off where we wanted to be later that afternoon. It is a pleasant and relaxing way to get an early overview before exploring the city further.

Much of the center of Zurich, on both sides of the Limmat River, consists of tiny, steep, winding streets, lined with wonderful shops, restaurants and historical churches. If you aren't a mountain goat, this is the best way to see it all on a beautiful day.
