Any suggestions for where to stay and what to do with two boys 6 and 8 with only a day in Zurich? We will arrive by train from Florence , spend the night and leave by plane for the US the next morning.
Depending on the weather, how about an excursion up to the Üetliberg ? There is a Solar System walk and an observation tower. If you send me a PM, I can send you some pictures.
Or a day-cruise to Rapperswil...
The Zoo. It's the city's top tourist attraction easily reached by tram.
gotta take a boat ride to anywhere on the lake
Up the Rigi railway, down the cable car, and the lake steamer to Lucerne. The best of all worlds.
Can the trip to Lucerne you mentioned be done all in one day? thank you for your reply
