Highlights
Zurich has a beautiful, historic Old Town. Many of the buildings are several hundred years old and date back to the 13th century. In a small, private group of up to 4 people, we’ll guide you for about two hours through winding alleys and across cozy squares right across the Old Town on both sides of the Limmat. We’ll visit places where you can feel the city’s rich history and that are accessible only through special entrances. Our walk begins at Hirschenplatz, in front of one of the oldest buildings in the Niederdorf, which was used as a hospital in the 13th century. Tailored entirely to your preferences, the tour then takes you past historically and architecturally significant buildings before ending at Lindenhof. Because of the limited number of participants, we can fully accommodate your personal wishes and preferences, ensuring you’ll look back on the tour with fond memories.
Inclusions
What's included

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).
