Overview
Discover Zürich the fun way! Join me on a relaxed walking tour that begins at the peaceful Lindenhof, where the city was born. From there, we’ll wander through the charming Old Town, exploring hidden alleys and highlights like St. Peter’s Church, the elegant Münsterhof, and the beautiful Fraumünster.
We’ll then cross the historic Münsterbrücke to visit the majestic Grossmünster and the atmospheric Wasserkirche, before heading toward lively Bellevue and ending the tour in front of the iconic Opera House.
Along the way, I’ll share not just the history of Zürich but also stories that connect to Swiss history, politics, and traditions, from neutrality to direct democracy. And of course, we won’t forget the Swiss by-products that conquered the world: chocolate and watches.
This tour is not a history lecture; it’s a mix of facts, anecdotes, and a touch of humour, so you’ll enjoy learning while exploring the city. Whether you’re here for a day or a week, this walk will give you the perfect introduction to Zürich and Switzerland.
Duration: ~2 hours
Price: Free (tips appreciated)
Meeting Point: Lindenhof
Come curious, leave inspired (and maybe a little hungry for Swiss chocolate)!
