Walking tour of Zurich? How about a free 2 hour walking tour of Zurich? Now you're talking…read more Met at 11am on a Monday when all the museums were closed, at the Credit Suisse in the Paradeplatz, one of the world's most expensive and exclusive shopping areas. Must have been at least 100 people there. Fortunately about 20 peeled off for the Spanish speaking tour. Julian was our guide, a great story teller with an abundance of jokes. At the Fraumünster church, we discovered tiny hieroglyphics carved into the stones. This was to keep track of which artisan packed which stones into the structure, for pay purposes. We stop by a statue of a burgermeister, condemned to death not for killing dogs, but for raising taxes! We wander through St Peter Church - one of the four main churches in Zurich whose clock face is the largest in all of Europe; We check out the restaurant where famous painters as Picasso, Chagall, Giacometti paid for their food with their own paintings. The restaurant owners sold the paintings right away, instead of keeping them until they appreciated in value. Next, we check out the house where Lenin was living before returning to Russia, leading the 1917 revolution. We go along the Limmatquai with many buildings dating from the days of the rich Guilds that governed Zurich. We wander through the Lindenhof and Roman Baths - the historical site of a Roman castle situated on a hillside, with great views of Old Town. Did you know that Albert Einstein and 20 Nobel Prize winners were students at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology? At the end of the 2 hour free tour Julian poses with a group for Facebook picture under "Free walk Zurich", passes out postcards with the logo, and collects tips, once again at the Paradeplatz. With 100 people, and an average of CHF3 per tip per person, Julian is a walking piggy bank, and takes no chances with his travel bag, now heavy with CHF bills. He walks only a few steps to make an in person deposit at the nearest bank! Or does he keep part of the stash hidden from the authorities?

We only had 1 full day in Zurich so we wanted to get the most out of it. We actually ended up doing 2 Free Walking Tours Zurich. The old Zurich tour and the Zurich West tour. We had such a blast getting to know more about such a beautiful city. The Old Zurich tour was much more crowded. Our guide was amazing. Explained a lot and told us great stories about the city. She even recommended a place for lunch which was delicious. The Zurich West tour was good, but not as great as the morning tour. Our guide was knowledgeable but we didn't feel like we learned as much. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Zurich

Five of us visited to taste the wines as a part of a food tour with Alsaciette Tours in Colmar. We entered the building which dates from 1600's into a cool, quiet courtyard that felt 100 miles away from the tourist hustle just outside and met David Ling, a Brit who has worked in the Alsace wine industry for nearly 50 years. He was so engaging and I could have listened to him for hours about the history of the wines, the people and the region. We sat and tasted 6 of their 16 delightful and affordable wines including several we had never had including a refreshing Chasselas and spirited Pinot Blanc. It was a very enjoyable afternoon that was a perfect climax to our visits in the region. Definitely recommended

Parmi les lieux les plus touristiques, citons Riquewihr, Kaysesberg, mais aussi Guebwiller et son couvent des Dominicains, sans oublier Colmar. Ces villages, qui ont su conserver leur charme d'antan avec des ruelles piétonnes, les balcons fleuris de géraniums, les maisons à colombages, gagnent réellement à être visités en dehors des périodes et des heures d'affluence. Privilégiez le printemps qui peut être très ensoleillé, ou l'automne où les vendanges et le vin nouveau donnent un attrait supplémentaire. Autour de Noël, ces villages revêtent leur habit de lumière et si le froid et la neige vous effraient, soyez assurés de vous réchauffer avec le vin chaud et les Braedele proposés dans tous les marchés de Noël.
