Overview

This half-day coach tour starts from central Zurich, traveling north through the wine-growing region of northern Switzerland. The route passes rolling vineyards and farming villages before arriving at the medieval Laufen Castle. Visitors have access to the castle and the Historama exhibition there. Next, the tour stops at Rhine Falls, Europe’s largest waterfall. You have about one hour to explore the falls, including panoramic views from a lift and a walk along the Belvedere trail to a platform above the falls. An optional boat ride near the falls is available in summer, weather permitting, for an additional fee. The boat ride is not suitable for guests with limited mobility or those with strollers. On the return trip, the coach passes through the town of Schaffhausen, notable for its 16th-century Munot Fortress, then briefly crosses into Germany before arriving back in Zurich city center. The entire excursion lasts about 3 hours and 45 minutes. The tour includes a professional multilingual guide, coach transportation with air conditioning, and carbon-balanced operations certified by myclimate. Hotel pickup is not included.
