Zurich City Highlights, Swiss Chocolate and Cheese
Overview of your Zurich tour
This 2. 5-hour tour reveals some of Zürich's history as well as stories of chocolate and cheese. We visit some chocolate shops, a local cheese shop and see some of the city's highlights. There will be a few Swiss delights along the way which adds some tasty fun. Our walk will take place in the city center with a focus on the old town. It will also include 3 to 4 stops at various locations to try some bites. A visit to Switzerland is not complete until you have tasted some cheese and chocolate. This is not a culinary tour but another way to discover the city.
Your Zurich tour itinerary
Every tour is unique and each itinerary will be adjusted to our agreed-upon starting point ( usually your hotel). The tour will be at your pace so we may not cover every site. We will see some of the city's major highlights such as Lindenhof, Grossmünster, Fraumünster, St. Peter's, the Niederdorf, and Paradeplatz. We will learn about Switzerland's special relationship with chocolate and visit several of the local shops such as Sprüngli, Lindt, Teuscher, Vanini, Laederach and St. Jakob's Bakery. We talk about Swiss Cheese, visit a local cheese shop, and sample a few of their offerings.
