This little boat cruises along the Limmat river, where you can see some of the most beautiful Zurich landmarks like the Grossmünster cathedral. The round trip tour is one hour, but you can get off earlier if want a shorter trip.

We suggest boarding the boat at the Zürich Landesmuseum stop on river near Zürich HB main station. The boat leaves the river and continues along the lake to Zürichhorn, a nice lakeside park. You can get off here, have lunch at the Fischergarten outdoor cafe, then walk back to the city center along the lakeside promenade, about 25 mins to reach Bellevue. Or ride back on the boat to Bellevue and continue exploring the old town from there.

The boat ride is included in the Zurich day pass and Zürich Card. Otherwise you can pay for a ticket on the boat.

Open: daily April – late October / departs every 30 mins from 10:50 – 17:20 (until 19:50 in July & Aug)
