Before you travel to Zurich by train - good to know!
The public transport system in and around Zurich is one of the best in the world, where over half of all journeys are made by public transport. An all-in-one travelcard allows visitors to get around in a number of ways, including bus, tram, rail, and even boat.
Visitors can take advantage of this public transport system to discover not only the most famous landmarks and attractions, but also the many surprising and unique things to do, such as dining at the world's oldest vegetarian restaurant, Hiltl, or taking a visit to the Moulagenmuseum, a museum displaying diseases in wax figure form.
