Lake Lucerne cruise, cogwheel train rides, and Rigi Kaltbad mineral baths, all self-guided with unlimited mountain transport.
“A great way to see Mt Rigi without the hassle! This day was full of beauty. The cruise to the base of Mt Rigi is breathtaking. The cable car provides stunning views, as does the top of Mt Rigi. The spa was cool! Also - Viator and the tour operator for this experience were super helpful. I got the day mixed up for our ticket. I was able to get a full refund and book for the correct day. Excellent customer service!”
A self-guided audio walk from Paradeplatz through Zurich’s witch-hunt sites, executions, and landmarks, with pro narration and clear directions.
Audio-led Zurich bus tour plus the steep Uetlibergbahn rail to Top of Zurich for big views, 11 languages, and easy pacing.
“The tour was great. It was a bit confusing checking in. There are several groups and tours and no one seems to want to help others. Once on the bus it was comfortable and we had headphones for explaining while riding on the bus. It was raining on our tour day so we did not explore as much as we wanted. The bus driver was helpful in offering suggestions or even to take us back if needed.”

“Easy to understand and nice to go at your own pace.”
A self-guided English audio walk through Lucerne’s top sights, fresco façades, bridges, towers, and the Lion Monument for $13.29.
“Very disappointing. We were not able to use the link that was sent to us. We tried on 4 different phones. We wasted 30 mins trying to figure this out. We were so looking forward to this tour. On the upside the tour company is refunding our money. However I used my Viator credits and not sure I will receive those back.”

Follow Odysseus on a 2.5-hour Foxtrail in Zurich’s old town: Limmat strolls, rail segments, gardens, and art clues.
“the foxtrail is great. But the logistic with Viator was very poor. Although the payment was taken, my booking was not passed so that we could take part. I therefore had to spend an extra hour on the day ordering again. I am in the process of requesting a refund from Viator.”
Solve puzzles and follow the fox on foot in Rapperswil’s old town on Lake Zurich with Foxtrail Baccarat in English for about 2.5 hours.

A self-guided audio walk through Zurich’s Old Town with free sights, stained-glass churches, Roman ruins, and a Max Bill finish.
“A comprehensive review of the city and its history. Vital to placing perspective on what otherwise would be just more landmarks. The audio kept resetting to the beginning though, which is what really annoying after an hour in.”
