Zurich & Rapperswil Tour

by Gray Line Zurich Duration 4h 30m Free cancellation available No booking or credit card fees
per adult Price is £49
3.2 of 5 (4 Expedia Verified Reviews)

Tour the old and new sights of Zurich, then take in sweeping views of the Alps while travelling to quaint Rapperswil, the “Town of Roses.” This is a great opportunity to explore the city centre, as well as to venture farther out into the surrounding beautiful alpine scenery.

Start with a guided city tour of Zurich and its commercial centre, where you get a real feel for modern Swiss lifestyle. Then tour some contrasting sights as you visit part of the Old Town, the Fraumünster Church, with its famous Chagall windows, and the historical area of Limmatquai.

Journey along the Höhenstrasse alpine road, which offers spectacular views across the Alps, to Rapperswil, nicknamed the “Town of Roses”. This charming place on the shore of Lake Zurich features an imposing medieval Castle, a deer park on the Lindenhof and a picturesque Old Town.

Between October and April, enjoy a grand 2-hour cruise on Lake Zurich. During winter months, take the scenic route back to Zurich aboard the Gold Coast Express train, which follows the shoreline of the lake.

3.2 out of 5

I payed for 4 hours Zurich tour with boat sailing on the Zurich lake. We boarded on the comfortable bus and found out that the majority of people was going to Lichtenstein. So Zurich sightseeing was 20 minutes while we were heading out of town. The tour ends in a small town T 1pm with possible boat sailing at 3pm. The weather was horrible-snow with rain and fog all around the lake. Our guide Anna provided us train tickets and after 35 min ride we were in Zurich. Not a good experience

Our guide Anna was very funny and informative and Rapperswill is BEAUTIFUL, however I don’t think this tour is value for money. The tour of Zurich is in a bus doing drive by sightings and the Rapperswill tour is walking and takes about 10mins. Then you’re on your own to get home (you get the train or boat ticket price included).
