Great highlights of Zurich old town.
Jhasmine_P

We caught the 1300 tour the morning we arrived in Zurich from the states—great way to fight jet lag and learn about the place we were visiting.
Our guide (Itty) was great. She gave us great tips on what to see when we wandered on our own and highlighted the main areas of the old town during the tour. The others walking with us were also great group of people. Even in (later) COVID times felt very safe as the tour was outside .
Very enjoyable tour

Great tour!! Saw just enough to be content in saying I saw Zurich! Eugenie was wonderful in handling the German speaking group and English. She was very knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend!

Remains of old Roman bath; legend of Felix and Raphaela(?); side streets with restaurants; learning that water from fountains is potable.
Not the best tour I’ve been on with you

The tour guide was clearly nervous and took some time to warm up the second half was better then the first.

Andrea was a great guide. She was very informative and did a great job of answering everyone’s questions. I would recommend this tour. There were a few hills but that is the nature Old Town.

Our Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, so our group had a great time! It is a good introduction to know about the history and layout of the interesting sites.
Great thing to do for first timers in Zurich!

Our tour guide Andrea was great! Her English was excellent and I could understand everything she said. She gave us informative facts about Zurich and it was a great welcome to the city for a first timer. I highly recommend this tour! I got to see places I probably wouldn’t have on my own and she gave us key insights.
Worth the money and time

Tour guide was very accommodating and offered lots of info.
If you just want to quickly walk through the city and get the “1000 feet above” story of Zurich, this tour is for you.
She also ended the tour by giving us several drink vouchers for a few local Christmas markets which pretty much covered the cost of the tour!

The information the guide...
Jared_M
, Sep 2021
The information the guide shared was very insightful! However, as English-speakers, we felt there were often times when the guide forgot to translate from German, left out details, or didn't share other guests' German questions with us. For being advertised as an English/German tour, we were a little disappointed it wasn't split equally.

Thank you to Anne-maria for showing us Zurich. We really enjoyed this walking tour and the fact that we were not too many in the group made it very special! We loved our guide, the places she showed us and the many things she told us. I could really recommend this walking tour if you have limited time and want to make the most of Zurich!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
