“Great tour with very knowledge able tour guide. I loved the brief driving tour of the city seeing different areas I would not have otherwise visited. Also really appreciated the walking tour of old town. I had walked the area the day before solo, but doing it again with a guide who shared more historic context was far more interesting. The boat ride to the chocolate factory wasn't too long, although the boat was very crowded and we had to stand. Would recommend getting their earlier to get seating (especially indoor seating if going during the winter). By the time you get to the factor you're likely hungry so I'd…”

Zurich day trip to Appenzell: farm milk tastings, Appenzeller cheese at a show dairy, and Hoher Kasten cable car views.
“A good trip if you want to escape from Zurich city. Cheese factory and farm visit was nice. However, after that the appenzelle city tour was boring and we literally had nothing to do. The trip to Hohen Kaster mountain was also very boring. Instead of this, they could have taken us to Aescher which was more interesting. Some activities should have been included in the second half part of the trip to avoid boring walks. Our guide Monica was awesome and she did everything in her capacity to keep us engaged”

“Total scam of our money, we booked the tour to the Lindt factory with a ride. The ride was supposed to pick us up at 1pm at our accommodation and provide us with the tickets. We actually took a very expensive taxi from the airport of Zurich to the accommodation to be there on time for our 1pm tour. We waited outside the accommodation at 12:40pm so we were clearly visible and early. Barely anyone walked by at one point and older man with a hat walked by looking at his phone as if he was waiting for someone, we approached him and asked if he was the driver for…”
