The 15 Best Tours & Day Trips from Zurich

85 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.5 average  ·  from $16

Zurich is the departure board for half of Switzerland: coaches to Titlis and the Jungfrau, the Rhine Falls up the road, the Lindt factory a tram ride from the centre. These 15 are the ones worth the early start, with prices and how long each really takes.

“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.”
