Walk through Zurich's Old Town with a local guide who knows exactly where to point your camera, and why. This 2-hour experience is built around photo spots chosen for their history, not just how they look, so you come home with pictures you can explain, not just post.
Your guide has spent years tracking down the stories behind Zurich's landmarks, the ones that don't make it into guidebooks, and brings a background in high-level client service and meticulous logistical planning. Every detail is handled, so you're free to take it in.
Small groups only, up to 4 guests, so your guide has time for everyone.
The exact stops stay part of the experience, half the fun is not knowing what's around the next corner until you're standing in front of it!
What's Included
