This experience was amazing and we had the best tour guide ever!! (unfortunately I can't remember his name but it started with an M). It ended up being a private tour because no one else signed up for it, me and my friend had the best time and got to see so much, the dinner and cheese fondue was also amazing. This tour is totally worth the money if you are looking for a good overview tour if Zürich to see a little bit of everything.

Andy was an amazing tour guide! We loved the tour as we got to do the Lindt chocolate shop which we wouldn't have done otherwise and the gondola and views from the restaurant were amazing. We got the cutest swiss cow mugs after the dinner and we recommend this experience to say you have done fondue the right way!!!!
