Beschrijving
Explore Zurich's Old Town and uncover its hidden underground world on a guided tour. Discover medieval alleys, iconic churches, and secret passages beneath the city.
Explore Zurich like never before — both above ground, through its iconic landmarks and scenic old town, and below the surface, uncovering the city’s hidden underground passages, ancient cellars, and historical layers. This tour combines culture, history, architecture, and the lesser-known “underworld” of Switzerland’s most vibrant city.
Begin by exploring the highlights of Zurich’s Old Town (Altstadt), walking through medieval alleys, charming squares, and waterfront promenades. Discover the stories behind Zurich’s churches, guild houses, and historic buildings that shaped the city.
Then, descend into Zurich’s underground spaces, where few visitors ever go. Depending on availability, this includes vaulted cellars, archaeological remains, former defensive structures, and hidden passages showing how the city evolved from Roman times to the Middle Ages and beyond. This is a rare chance to experience the layers of Zurich’s history—literally.
This tour is perfect for curious travelers who love history, architecture, secret places, and unique perspectives on a city.
