6 Wine Tours & Tastings in Zurich That You Shouldn't Miss

April 21, 2022 Fernanda Pittenger

The largest city in Switzerland is a major contemporary art and shopping destination. Important artworks are displayed in the Kunsthaus and the Rietberg Museum, while those who consider shopping an art can hone their skills along Bahnhofstrasse and Niederdorf. Chagall's stained glass windows in the Fraumunster amaze and Zurich's 500 clubs and bars, including several in swimming pools, pulse with life 'til the early hours. This city on Lake Zurich has excellent public transit and a free bike rental system.

Many people like to drink wine. Unfortunately, very few people know what to focus on with their nose and palate to even guess what's in the glass! This is exactly what we would like to introduce to you in this setup tasting. They leave the cellar with a whole new attitude to crying. Just one example ... where does the red color in red wine come from? Can you make white wine from red wine grapes? etc.....

Inclusions: Wine, liqueur, spumante, frizante, water, antipasti, snacks ... etc

Excellent service. Here amazing help and support. Many thanks to Swiss Epic Tours. Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay are the staff. All of the people are incredibly helpful and generous with their time and advice. We travelled with two six year olds and lots of luggage and despite the stairs up to the elevator this was one of the nicest places we stayed in the four weeks

We took the tour on August 25, 2020 and it turned out to be an excellent way of seeing Zurich, particularly the old town, the area around the Grossmünster, etc. The weather was nice, so there was no need for warm clothes. The drive was friendly, spoke good English and made some interesting comments. If you are a first time visitor - I am not but there were two of us - I highly recommend this Tour. One criticism : they charge you an additional CHF 19 for dropping you off less than a mile away from the railway station upon your return and that is probably a bit excessive. i asked and got a drop off at Sihlstrasse but the additional charge was a bit unwarranted.

Chris has organized amazing trip around central Switerland for our VIP family of 5. He paid attention to every detail and was extremely helpful. Without him, planning this trip could be very problematic. He also made a surprise for girls' birthdays offering them customized chocolate. He is also very knowledgeable and kind person. Highly recommended!

6. Private Tasting of Swiss Local Products in Zurich

This meal is unique because it will allow you to discover a facet of Swiss gastronomy. No restaurant in Zurich offers traditional raclette. If traditional gastronomy is an area that fascinates you or you are just curious. Then this meal is for you! At the end of this experience, you will have eaten well and drunk well. And above all, you will have learned all kinds of stories specific to this canton: Valais.
