Highlights

We begin the tour at Bahnhofstrasse, one of the world’s most exclusive shopping streets. We stroll through this avenue, lined with luxury boutiques and cafes, and take in the vibrant atmosphere of the city. Then we walk to Fraumünster Church, where we can admire the beautiful yard that used to be a nunnery. Here our way continues to St. Peter’s Church, home to Europe’s largest church clock face. After this we take a short walk to Lindenhof Hill, a peaceful park offering stunning views over the Old Town, the river, and the distant Alps. We continue with a stroll along the Limmat River. This scenic walk is lined with historical buildings and offers a lovely view of both banks of the river. After this we head towards Niederdorf, a pedestrian-friendly quarter filled with narrow, winding streets. This area is brimming with medieval buildings, quaint shops, and cozy cafes. Our tour finishes at the iconic Grossmünster, famous for its twin towers.

About Zurich

Zurich is Switzerland's largest city, set at the head of a clear lake with Alpine views, a medieval old town and the cabaret where Dada was born.

The Old Town spreads along both banks of the Limmat River, with narrow lanes, guild houses and church spires. The twin towers of the Grossmünster are the city's landmark, the Fraumünster has stained-glass windows by Chagall, and St Peter's Church has one of the largest clock faces in Europe. Lindenhof hill gives a peaceful view over the rooftops.

Top-ranked sights in Zurich: Lucerne, Zurich Old Town (Altstadt), Lake Zurich (Zürichsee).
