Zurich Old Town Walking Tour
What do Einstein, James Joyce and Wagner have in common? All three were residents of Zurich. But it´s not only great minds who are captivated by this lakeside city with its well-preserved old town - people from all over the world have always flocked to the thriving metropolis.
On a two-hour walk through the old town, we go searching for clues to the city´s past in its hidden alleyways and picturesque squares. Together, we uncover the secrets of Bahnhofstrasse, find out what a "procession axis" is, and visit a church with a minute-hand that jumps a record-breaking half meter every minute.
This popular tour is filled with numerous astonishing and amusing anecdotes and has plenty to offer both visitors and locals alike.
The answers to the most frequently asked questions about the city tours organized by Zürich Tourism.
From November 21 to December 24, 2024, the Christmas illuminations on Bahnhofstrasse and pretty Christmas markets will create a festive atmosphere in Zurich. During this time, the tour will be rounded off with insights into its history.
