    The top view and scenic view of the greenlands
  • If you're looking to explore Zürich, with its austere architectural beauty and beautiful natural surroundings, this 4.5-hour tour pretty much covers it all. Meet your expert guide, and board a comfortable air-conditioned coach to explore the major highlights of the city. Pass by the National Museum, towards Bahnhofstrasse - one of the world's most expensive and exclusive shopping avenues. Enjoy a photo stop at the stunning Lake Zürich, before heading towards the university quarter, to see the famed Swiss Federal Institute of Technology as well as the Zürich Museum of Art.

    Enter the charming Old Town, and enjoy a pleasant introductory stroll past patriarchal guild houses. See St. Peter church (Europe's largest clock-face is here), the "Grossmünster" church, and the "Fraumünster" church with the stained glass windows by Marc Chagall. Head out of the city and travel along the “Gold Coast” to Meilen. This is where you board a ferry and cross the crystal-clear waters of Lake of Zürich to Horgen. Move on to Adliswil for the best part of your city tour: a cable car ride! In fact, this is the only aerial cable car in the Canton of Zürich to the viewpoint of Felsenegg. Fall in love with the incredible views overlooking Zürich, the lake, and the snow-capped Alps from here. Breathe in the fresh air of the beautiful forest before heading back to Zürich.
