I'm Martu, a tour guide with 13 years of experience :) I've worked for many different companies and now I am finally giving my own tours. This is exciting and thrilling. I looove Zurich, I love history, art, and exploring cities on foot. I'm originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and in addition to being a guide, I work as an artist and osteopath in this beautiful city. I love swimming, delicious food, and discovering the secrets of each place I visit. On my tours, I like to share not only the history but also my own set of recommendations of places to eat, museums, art galleries, and things to do while you're here. You can get to know me more on IG @vvvvvvartin :)

Tour description

Welcome to Switzerland’s largest city!

 On this walk, I’ll take you through the beautiful heart of Zurich — where medieval towers, sparkling fountains, and modern life come together.

We’ll wander through the peaceful courtyards of Fraumünster, then follow the river to the Roman Baths, where the city’s ancient roots still whisper. From there, we’ll climb up to St. Peter’s Church to see its famous clock tower, and continue on to Lindenhof for breathtaking views over the Limmat River. Along the way, we’ll talk about the courageous women who once saved the city.


You’ll also discover hidden paintings, charming cafés, and places even locals sometimes overlook — like Cabaret Voltaire, the legendary birthplace of Dadaism.

From grand churches to secret alleys, you’ll experience a bit of everything — and hopefully feel inspired to explore even more.


By the end of the tour, I’ll share a few of my favorite local tips: where to eat, grab the best coffee, visit great museums, and enjoy peaceful walks along the river and the lake — spots only locals know about.


Let’s walk!
