INDULGE – food experiences

SWISS CLASSICS

This is our signature walking tour through the enchanting Old Town of Zurich, which will introduce you to Switzerland’s most beloved specialties. Over the course of approximately 3 to 3.5 hours, you will explore the rich culinary history that has shaped Swiss gastronomy. 

From traditional cheese and meat dishes to the story behind the historic “Spanisch-Brötli-Bahn” (“Spanish small buns train”), you will uncover the fascinating origins of local treats such as the Tirggel cookie or the legacy of Sprüngli. Along the way, we will also reveal what Zurich’s residents would have eaten centuries ago and highlight the innovative food start-ups that are redefining the city’s culinary scene today.

Beyond the flavors themselves, this tour shares captivating stories and hidden locations — places even many locals have yet to discover. You will try over 15 delicious foods and beverages, offering a delectable journey through Zurich’s past and present.

The “Swiss Classics” tour can be booked from Monday to Saturday, either in the morning or in the afternoon, for a minimum of 4 guests. 

My wife and I joined this tour on our first time visiting Zurich! It was just a perfect day!

We met our guide at the train station and from there she took us around the old town, with many tastings in between, from Swiss pastries to the most famous Raclette! She was very informative, and she gave us so much information about the food industry in Switzerland and most specifically the Zurich Area.

During the tour, we had few tastings at some local shops, all selling mostly local Swiss products. In one of them we actually bought the best Gruyère cheese we have ever tried! Unbelievable!

Thank you very much Indulge tours for giving us the best first experience of the food world of Zurich and Switzerland!

The perfect introduction to Zurich! We took the Swiss Classics Tour on the day we arrived in Zurich. We enjoyed spending the afternoon with Emma, tasting food and learning about the city. We’ve been on numerous food tours throughout Europe and this was one of the best. I highly recommend it.
