You’ll ride from your Zurich hotel to Kilchberg, enter the Lindt Home of Chocolate, follow a self-guided audio and multimedia visit, watch production through panoramic windows, and sample unlimited chocolate. The private vehicle is for pickup only, so plan your return before booking.

“Despite confirmation few days before, the trip was cancelled by the provider last minute. The pickup was initially booked from the hotel. But later before 2 days of the schedule the pickup upped point was changed to Zurich main station. When I went to the station no update/ no calls. When I called the provider I was told they couldn’t book me so they moved it to next day. Next day they said they will refund and asked me to go direct with Lindt. I am still waiting for the refund to be credited.”

“Total scam! 100% You do not need this to go into the Lindt chocolate museum, tickets are cheap at the museum even the receptionist told us we got scammed. Price is overly exaggerated. Paid almost 80% up charge. Super upset with the service provided, our ride arrived over 40 minutes late, wasted our morning. Do not get this service just take a regular taxi or boat ride over to the museum.”

7.Zurich with Cruise and Lindt Home of Chocolate Private tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 8 reviews · 4 to 5 hours (approx.) · from $511

See Zurich’s Grossmünster, Fraumünster, Wasserkirche, and St. Peter’s with a private English-speaking guide, then cruise Lake Zurich and visit Lindt Home of Chocolate. Hotel pickup is usually included, with guides such as David and Jonathan praised for making the day personal and easy.

“We booked this experience because we wanted to do the Chocolate factory tour for my daughter and they were sold out for the weekend and she insisted on visiting. So this was one other way to get in and probably throw in the Zurich tour as well. The vehicle we got and the 'driver' was very nice but he was no fluent English guide as we were promised. He could barely speak English and that meant the experience was very limited and not value for money for what we paid. Not the fault of the poor driver but definitely from the company running the tour. Hence my rating and review…”
