You can use the vouchers you purchased right away. I've already used them, and there were no issues at all. You can simply show the vouchers to the train staff, ticket agents, or museum staff. It's very easy! Our only job is to make sure we get on the correct train class. 😃

a better option and more pocket friendly than the STP, especially if combined with other tickets like the gonegrat bahn zermatt or jungfrau travel pass. cannot recommend enough as travelling in swiss alone is $$$. easy to use and if conducter comes to check, just present the QR code that is provided once this ticket is purchased. thanks Klook for this offer!

Great 4.0
Overall, it's very convenient. While it's a bit of a distance from the station, it's not inconvenient to pull luggage. Be careful if you need to store luggage; there are very few and small spaces, and anything over 26 inches won't fit. Early check-in with luggage storage costs 50 Swiss Francs. Hotel location: Acceptable Service: Unmanned Transportation convenience: Acceptable Breakfast: None Cleanliness: Acceptable

Great 4.0
One of the cheapest option in zurich and it was overall a comfortable stay with good breakfast. Only issue is that the towel is not provided and cost 3CHF to rent. The train station is also down a steep slope which is inconvenient if u have big luggage. Otherwise a value for money stay.

Nice hotel and everything went very well! The only minor drawback was the heat; a fan in the room would have been appreciated. Other than that, no complaints, I recommend it!

I had pleasant trip with this Best Of Switzerland Tours and this is my 2nd time with them. Matthew and Shreya was very helpful, kind and cheerful and friendly throughout the whole trip. I especially appreciated how they shared interesting information and stories with us on the bus before we even reached each destination. It made the journey enjoyable and helped us understand more about the places we were visiting. The positive energy and cheerful personality made the whole tour even more memorable. Thank you for making our trip such a great experience! Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What to know before visiting Zurich

Zurich at a glance: what visitors book and when

Zurich draws most bookings for Tours, Museums and Cruises, with activity demand peaking in summer and dipping over the winter months. The booking rhythm shows a busy summer season around June and quieter demand in January and late autumn.

When to visit: crowds and prices through the year

According to Klook booking data, demand peaks in June while demand troughs in January and November. Prices trend separately: Klook data shows the priciest month is typically March and the cheapest month typically August, with prices rising through late winter into spring and peaking before easing in summer. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in August or January when demand and prices are generally softer; for peak-season atmosphere choose June when demand is highest even though prices are higher earlier in the year. Note that demand and price do not move in lockstep here — the busiest month is June while the highest prices tend to occur in March.

Tips for travellers

Most travellers book activities around two weeks ahead, with last-minute options often available a day before. If your trip is flexible you can book a lot close to arrival, but if you travel in June (the peak month) consider booking earlier to secure popular tours and museum slots. Use Klook to compare and reserve experiences in advance or shortly before travel depending on how fixed your plans are.
