Tour description

Hi! I’m a local from Zurich, and this tour is all about showing you what everyday life here really looks like — beyond the tourist hotspots and historical landmarks.

Instead of diving deep into dates and monuments, we’ll explore the places where locals actually spend their time. Think relaxed walks along the lake and river, great lookout spots, cozy cafés, fun hangouts, and some of my personal favorite corners of the city. You’ll get a feel for Zurich’s atmosphere, rhythm, and what makes it such a special place to live.

This tour takes place in the area between the lake and the main train station, mixing scenic views with a few well-known highlights — but always with a local twist. It’s a great way to get oriented, discover some hidden spots, and experience Zurich from a more personal, everyday perspective.

If you're curious about what Zurich feels like beyond the guidebooks, come along — I’d love to show you around!

Feel free to send me a message and ask me any questions you may have! 

I can't wait to meet you!!
