    2. Rapperswil Rose Gardens

      Along lake Zurich you will then travel to Rapperswil and visit the castle with its rose garden and the deer park. You will also have some time at leisure to stroll through the picturesque Old Town.

      75 minutes here

    3. Vaduz

      In Vaduz, the capital of the tiny Principality of Liechtenstein you will have more time at leisure. A visit to the Post Office is recommended; the famous stamps from this tiny state are coveted worldwide by philatelists and amateur stamp lovers alike.

    4. Heididorf

      After a drive through the Rhine Valley we finally arrive at Maienfeld, the setting for the Heidi stories. In the summer months you visit Heidi's village. A pleasant short walk leads to a collection of typical mountain houses, a village shop, and of course lots of little goats. Entry into the authentic Heidi House is optional.

      40 minutes here

    5. Zurich

      A beautiful trip back to Zurich along the banks of Lake Walen, guarded over majestically by the Churfirsten mountain range brings to a close this most nostalgic of Swiss tours.

    6. Werdenberg

      Please note - in wintertime, you'll visit the quaint Swiss village of Werdenberg instead of Heidi's village.

      30 minutes here

    7. Then after crossing the Ricken Pass with its panoramic views of the Alps we reach the lovely Toggenburg region whose pretty hill and valley scenery is perfect chocolate box material!

    Nice tour but not a lot to see.

    The tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant and the bus driver was very good. There just wasn’t a lot to see and nothing is included. The Heidiland cost 12 CF to go inside and you buy your own lunch. But the guide made it fun.

    Great Way to Experience Liechtenstein!

    Excellent tour and such a great way to maximize our time in the area! Our tour guide and bus driver were both fantastic. Honestly, we booked this specific tour mainly because we wanted to go into Liechtenstein and check it off our countries list. 😉Everything else was just icing on the cake! One of the fun parts was getting our passports stamped in Liechtenstein and walking around the pedestrian area of the capital. We also have to admit that we had never even heard of Heidiland before booking this tour! 😂 It ended up being such a great stop, with beautiful scenery and incredible views. Rapperswil was another excellent stop and the perfect place for us to grab lunch. Overall, this tour exceeded our expectations and gave us a chance to see and experience so much in one day. Highly recommend!

    Nice trip but visiting Vaduz is boring.

    Nice tour excursion. Mr Raymond is our tour guide is very knowledgeable and our bus driver is very professional. We arrived safe from our trip. The Vaduz, Liechtenstein is boring ang nothing really exciting to see. The palace was close and only open once a year. There is a gift shop that stamp your passport for 5 francs.

    Meeting place is at bus...

    Meeting place is at bus station which you should mention. Tour should start on time. Not wait for 15 minutes for no shows and then rush the tour. Heidiland is a stop where an additional ticket is needed to get inside the houses. Rapperswil was lovely but were rushed up the hill and stairs. Liechtenstein was very nice but stop could have been more time, maybe an additional half hour.

    Wonderful day in Switzerland!

    A wonderful day in Switzerland! Ramon was an excellent tour guide who led us to the beautiful old town of Rapperswil, then on the Heidiland (which was lovely and not at all the tourist trap we were expecting!), then on to Lichtenstein, so we could all claim another country. Delightful day!

    Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zurich.

    How much does Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich cost?

    +

    Prices start at $116 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Zurich usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich take?

    +

    Plan for about 7.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Zurich is not rushed.

    Is Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 1,845 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Zurich, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich?

    +

    Around 646 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Zurich can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Zurich and add a light layer if any part of the 7.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Zurich within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Zurich?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Zurich experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Zurich Food Tour with 10 Local Delicacies, Cheeses & Chocolates, Private, excellent guided tour of Zurich (from CHF 21/pers.), Zurich Historic District Guided 2-Hour Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Zurich?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Zurich?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich?

    +

    Included: On-board WiFi; Professional guide; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Food & Drinks; Hotel pick-up and drop-off; and Heidi House Admission Fee (optional visit). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich?

    +

    The Sihlquai bus station is located 200 meters behind Zurich main station (HB). IMPORTANT: If you are using GPS, please enter 'Limmatstrasse 4, 8005 Zürich'. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    Is Heidiland and Liechtenstein Tour from Zurich wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
