Zurich for every traveler

Zurich has many choices to accommodate your budget and plenty of attractions to make your visit fun, interesting and memorable, from sailing or touring around the lake on a steamer to taking in the idyllic views of lake and the famous Swiss Alps with stops at historic villages. Hiking is a Swiss passion, and you'll find plenty of trails, from hour-long walks to serious day hikes. If you have a youngster with you Zuerich Zoo is one of Europe's most famous. For art and culture lovers, enjoy world class museums and many excellent galleries. I've enjoyed great performances at the Opera house as well as the symphony. Swiss people like going out, many clubs have dancing and/or great music. Chamber music, dance from ballet to modern are abundant. There is an immense choice of good restaurants offering famous Swiss specialties like "Fondue" or "Raclette, (molten mountain cheese over baby potatoes) and great cooking from every corner of the world at all price levels. 'Bratwurst' from the grill is the Swiss national sausage made of veal and spices. Delish!!! Another specialty is "Roeschti", a crispy-crunchy pancake with a soft, buttery inside. Zurich boasts its own famous chocolate factory you may visit and the finest pastry shops creating mouth watering chocolate concoctions and outrageous pastries daily. For antique hunters, the medieval city dating back to the 13th century is strewn with treasures and little eateries. Open air coffee houses are everywhere. Day tours from Zurich are plentiful. Visits to the Alps offer unforgettable views and storybook landscapes. Buses stop along the way to the glaciers in charming little villages, centuries old, for a glimpse of Swiss country life. From the famous Baur au Lac to the most simple restaurant or shop, most Swiss speak some English to make visitors welcome. If you want to say hi, say "Gruezi"!
