Zurich Guided Tour + Boat Ride
Description
At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the Sihlquai bus station to begin this full tour of Zurich where we'll both walk and take a bus.
Firstly, we'll enjoy a panoramic bus tour by passing by famous locations such as the National Museum. During the tour, we'll also see the luxurious shopping street of Bahnhofstrasse and the financial centre. After a stop at the Enge Gate, where you'll also be able to take photos of the Zürichsee Gate, we'll continue the tour next to the Opera Theatre.
We'll continue the tour of the university neighbourhood, where we'll pass by the Federal Institute of Technology Zurich and the University of Zurich. Afterwards, we'll observe the most luxurious mansions located in the foothills of the Zürichberg Hill, and from there, we'll head towards the area of the Kunsthaus, one of the main Swiss art museums.
Following on, we'll take a walking tour of the historic centre of Zurich. On this tour of the old town's streets, we'll see the largest clock face in Europe, located at the Peterkirche Church steeple, and the outside of the City Hall and the Grossmünster and Fraumünster churches.
After this guided visit of Zurich, the guide will depart and then you'll have free time to enjoy a boat tour around Zürichsee Lake. On this hour-long tour, we'll enjoy the stunning views of the villas, mansions and baths dotted along the banks of the lake.
The boat tour will finish up at the Bürkliplatz Square, where, after 3 hours and 45 minutes, we'll say our goodbyes back at the meeting point.
