Totally worth the trip! I had a wonderful time seeing different parts of Zurich. Although, it was during a special holiday, our tour guide , Bettina did an awesome job taking us to another destination to fulfill the void due to the parade. I applaud her efforts in making my experiences memorable. Thank you Bettina!

Please don’t look for a big office. There is a shack by the side of the public bus stand. The staff at the office do their job and nothing more. As a tourist one would expect a warm welcome smile. But I guess they too have their days. The tour guide, although matter of fact, was informative and gave glimpses into the life of Swiss in Zurich. The trip could have been chartered better. There seemed to be a communication gap between the driver and the guide. Nevertheless we enjoyed the tour and had a memorable day.
