Here’s an overview of your tour

Enjoy your trip to the max as you explore the breathtaking treasures outside of Zürich. Say goodbye to crowded tourist buses and let a local guide you through a charming day trip tailored just for you!

Meeting at Zürich Hauptbahnhof, you’ll board a train for a scenic 60-minute ride to the enchanting town of Stein am Rhein. This picturesque destination, with its stunning architecture, will captivate you from the moment you arrive. After soaking in the charm of Stein am Rhein, you'll hop back on the train for a quick 20-minute journey to Schaffhausen, where you’ll stroll through the streets lined with painted houses, each telling its own unique story. Your adventure continues with a visit to the impressive 16th-century Munot Castle, surrounded by picturesque vineyards. This historic site offers not only a glimpse into the past but also stunning views of the surrounding area.

As the highlight of your day, we’ll make our way to the magnificent Rhine Falls. Get ready for an unforgettable boat trip that takes you right to the heart of the falls, allowing you to explore the rock formations and enjoy breathtaking views from within the waterfall itself (the boat ride is available from April to October, but there are plenty of viewing points year-round to enjoy the stunning scenery).

With your host accompanying you on a convenient train ride, all you need to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey!

To enhance your experience, you can choose your local host for the day, each bringing their unique passion and expertise to your journey, ensuring that your adventure is personalized and unforgettable. Book now for a day of discovery, beauty, and adventure at a fantastic value!
