Overview

Welcome to the Secret Food Tour in Zurich! Join us as we embark on a culinary adventure through the heart of this vibrant city, where you'll taste your way through the best local spots and discover the authentic flavours of Swiss cuisine.

From mouth-watering cheeses at a local deli, to local spirits and liquors, historic restaurants, street foods and pastries to indulgent chocolates from Switzerland's oldest chocolate shop, we'll guide you through hidden gems and iconic eateries that showcase Zurich's rich food culture.

Whether you're a local or a visitor, this tour promises a delicious journey filled with unique dishes, local stories, and the best of Swiss hospitality. Come hungry and ready to explore!

Our afternoon tour differs slightly from our morning tours. In place of the muesli and hot chocolate, we enjoy either luxurious champagne truffles or a unique Zurich-born cocktail, depending on the day of the week - a natural shift as the day calls for something a little boozier
