“it was very interesting and you do get quite a few free samples”
Bus and boat highlights in Zurich, a guided Old Town walk, and Lindt Home of Chocolate with tastings, plus a 24-hour transit ticket.
“Enjoyed and a great way to visit the lindt home of chocolate. Booked it last minute due to not being able to find tickets. You get first into a bit coach and you get a good drive through the city. The guide give good and interesting information. Next we went to the harbour (could have been skipped 10min stop). Next we had a little walking tour. Really enjoyed it and the guide gave some great recommendations. Then we all boarded the boat and went to the chocolate factory. From there once you are given your tickets, it is free time. So I liked it.”

“This is a must-take tour in Geneva!! Olivia, our tour guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. She made the entire tour fun and engaging from start to finish. Her deep knowledge of the Old Town’s history, as well as the fascinating history of chocolate, really brought the experience to life. She shared so many interesting insights about chocolate that I had never known before. Highly recommended!”
A 30-minute Rhine Falls boat tour in Neuhausen. Bilingual guiding, wildlife spotting, and a close misty finale for about $13.
“We loved the boat ride! The guide was so friendly, enthusiastic and funny. He even translated everything in English even though I was the only person who could not speak German on the boat. The Rhine Falls itself is beautiful and worth the adventure of experiencing it up close.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed the trip! The bus was comfortable, the driver competent, the guide knowledgeable and helpful. The scenery —even on a cold rainy day—was beautiful. Heidi was my favorite book as a child so it was so fun to see Heidiland! We enjoyed seeing the castles and architecture along the tour as well.”

“The tour guide was great. even though we had a lot of clouds and couldn't see much the trip was still fun. the combo of bus, lift, train and boat was lovely. We had around 1hr 45 min at the top to do whatever we wanted and we didn't feel rushed at any point. We would do this trip again in the future hoping for no clouds.”
