The Lindt chocolate factory has a delightful visitor center just 20 min by bus or boat from Zurich city. It’s full of beautiful and educational interactive multimedia exhibits, where you’ll learn everything about Swiss chocolate from bean to bar. You also get to eat a lot of chocolate during the tour.
You should definitely book ahead as time slots can sell out, especially on weekends. You could also book a guided tour that includes a bus tour of Zurich, boat ride to Lindt and chocolate museum visit.
If you have time, we definitely suggest signing up for a chocolate workshop, where you can make chocolate bars and seasonal treats like their Christmas Santa and Easter bunny.
