This tour shows you the most interesting sights of Zurich and its surroundings. We start with a guided city tour of Zurich and show you the commercial centre, a section of the Old Town, Fraumünster Church with its famous Chagall windows, historical Limmatquai and the university district. Along the Höhenstrasse that offers spectacular views into the Alps, we drive to Rapperswil, called the 'City of Roses'. The charming little town of Rapperswil offers unique attractions for visitors - the Rose Gardens, the Castle, the deer park on the Lindenhof and the picturesque Old Town. After a short guided walking tour and some time at leisure in Rapperswil, enjoy a 2-hour cruise on the Lake of Zurich (unescorted). On board you will find a restaurant. First possible boat back is scheduled to arrive at 3.15 p.m. at Zurich Bürkliplatz Pier.
(Between November and March there are no boats operating, so you return to Zurich by modern train "Gold Coast Express" along the romantic road that follows the lake-shore.)
