Great experience.
Great experience that allows you to visit the most important tourist sites in the city. The app lets you get the history of the city without overdoing it. You avoid tour guides and stroll through the city on your own. The puzzles are well thought out and fun. Remember to bring an external battery for your phone; between Google Maps and the app, the battery drains quickly. And above all, remember to look up; the houses and the architecture are magnificent. Thank you for this beautiful, no-frills experience.
Response from the operator: Merci beaucoup! 😊 Flâner seule dans Saint-Gall, éviter les guides et découvrir l'histoire de la ville avec des énigmes bien pensées, c'est exactement ce que nous voulons offrir! Merci pour le super conseil sur la batterie externe et pour ce joli rappel de lever la tête vers l'architecture. Nous espérons vous retrouver bientôt dans une autre ville! 🗺️

Super nice trip
Via a stop train from Gais to St. Louis. Gallen. This is a beautiful city. Clean, full of culture, beautiful places visited. (Library of the Abbey and the Cathedral) Walking around with a student we met to ask for directions. Very nice young lady who told about nice places in the city. Nice cappuccino drunk in front of the entrance to the library. Under a tree in the shade. After the viewing we have lunch near the Cathedral. Then back to holiday home Brand in Gais.
Response from the operator: 😊 Bedankt voor jullie mooie en uitgebreide review! Wat fijn om te lezen dat jullie zo'n heerlijke dag in St. Gallen hebben gehad, van de abdijbibliotheek en kathedraal tot de cappuccino in de schaduw en de lunch in de buurt. Leuk dat een studente jullie onderweg ook nog extra tips over de stad gaf! We hopen jullie binnenkort in een andere stad te mogen verwelkomen! 🗺️

St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zurich.
How much does St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $3 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 St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Zurich, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour?
+
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 St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour?
+
Around 1 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does St Gallen Scavenger Hunt & Highlights Self-Guided Walking Tour 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.
