Zurich is a beautiful place to take in by foot, full of interesting architecture and cultural hotspots. The main tourist attractions can be found in close proximity, so take the time to walk around and enjoy the city. Zurich also offers free bike rentals all year round. To get a bike you’ll need to pay a small, refundable deposit and show your passport or photo ID. Trams also run often throughout the city and are a cheap and easy way of getting around. To see more of Zurich, there are buses, trains, boats and cable cars available to help you reach the outer suburbs. Driving is not recommended due to constant traffic and lack of parking spots. Taxis are also notoriously expensive here and not really worth your time due to the pedestrianised streets.
Zurich has a moderate climate with cold winters and warm, sunny days in summer. Winter is the low season but as the Swiss Alps are located nearby, room rates remain quite high year round. Visit in the summer, between June and August to get the best out of Zurich. The weather is warm and the city comes alive with street parades and festivals, including Zurich Pride, Zurich Openair and Niederdorf Old Town Festival.
Also known as Kloten Airport, Zurich Airport is the biggest international airport serving Switzerland. The airport is located around 10 kilometres north of central Zurich. Flights travel to Zurich Airport from a number of destinations, including London, Hong Kong, Helsinki and New York. There are no direct flights available from Australia.
