How to Get to Zürich, Switzerland
There are quite a few ways to get to Zürich, so you’re in luck!
Get to Zürich by Plane
If you plan on flying in for your 24 hours in Zurich, you can fly right into Zurich Airport. From there, you can plan on catching either a train, bus, tram, or taxi to get downtown. Each of these will cost differently, so think wisely!
If you choose to take a train, you can take one right to Zürich’s central station downtown in about 15 minutes. This is the option that I suggest since it doesn’t take that long and is the most affordable! Plus, the train system in Switzerland is super easy to understand.
A shuttle bus is another option, which takes about 40 minutes. The shuttle bus runs once an hour, and tickets can be purchased online. If you’re lucky, your hotel may even offer a complimentary shuttle bus, and you won’t have to pay a thing!
FREE TRAVEL QUIZ
If you want, you could also take a tram! This will take about 35 – 40 minutes. If you have a Zürich card, then this would actually be included for you!
The last option is to take a taxi. This may be your quickest option if you don’t want to walk from a train stop or tram stop, which adds extra travel time. However, it can be a hefty price.
In fact, it can cost around CHF 70 which is about $72 USD. Sometimes this might even take just as long as the train, so really go through your options! If you’re not a fan of public transport, this might be your option.
Get to Zürich by Train
Traveling by train is fairly comfortable in Europe! There are usually charging ports and even semi-okay food available on these trains. Plus, the views from your window will be much more enjoyable by train than by bus.
Train tickets to Zürich, depending on where you’re from, seem to average CHF 20 – 90, depending on what class travel you choose. Most trains will bring you right to Zurich HB, which is Zürich’s main train station.
Did you know that Switzerland is home to some of the most beautiful train journeys in Europe? You might catch some epic views by taking the train to Zurich.
Get to Zürich by Car
If you’re doing a European train trip or you’re already in a neighboring country, driving a car into Zürich is definitely an option!
If you’re renting a car, just make sure that you’re allowed to bring your vehicle to other countries. A plus to driving in is that you can stop anywhere you want for photo opportunities.
Trust me, there are a lot of insta-worthy places to take photos in Switzerland! Here’s how to spend 4 days in Switzerland on a road trip.
Get to Zürich by Bus
If you’re on a budget, then this is definitely the option for you, though it might take the longest. Usually, tickets will cost anywhere from CHF 10 – 30. I do suggest booking in advance though!
Flixbus and Eurolines are two more popular European bus lines that service Zürich.
However, be wary! Sometimes buses can be canceled at the last minute or can take much longer than the intended travel time. (This has happened to me many times on Flixbus.)
Getting Around Zürich, Switzerland
Out of the 13 countries I’ve visited, Switzerland has some of the most reliable public transportation.
Everything was always on time and running smoothly – I never had any complaints. So, it’s easy to rely on it for 24 hours in Zurich.
If you’re planning on getting a Zürich card, then all of your public transport will be included.
If you don’t want to splurge on one of the Zürich cards or don’t think you’ll use it enough for it to be worth it, you could purchase just a 24-hour travel pass, which is what I did.
I found this to be a lot more worth it because I didn’t think I would use the Zürich card enough to get my money’s worth. For me, since I was staying fairly downtown, my 2 zone ticket worked perfectly.
As for modes of transportation, there are buses, trains, and trams.
I mostly stuck with the trams because they were pretty quick and effortless to use! They are also extremely clean. Everything is pretty connected in Zürich. Tickets can be purchased at the machines that are located at almost every tram and train stop.
If you want to learn more about how many zones you might be using, try out the ZVV app, the Switzerland transport app.
One thing to note is that you ride on the honor code, at least with the trams. As I said, I never actually rode the buses or trains, so I’m not sure about those! If you are caught without a ticket on the train, you could pay a hefty fine!
Is the Zürich card worth it?
The Zurich Card can be purchased for 24 or 48-hour intervals. These can be purchased online at the SBB Ticketshop or on the ZVV Ticket App. They can also be bought at Zürich HB or Zürich Airport upon arrival.
With the Zürich Card, you get free public transportation, free/reduced admission to certain museums, 50% off the Zürich Old Town Walking Tour, free access to the Adliswil-Felsenegg Aerial Cableway, 20% off the Zürich city bus tour, and many other discounts at museums, shopping stores, restaurants, and more.
The card could be worth it if you plan on visiting a lot of the places where the Zürich card gives you discounts. I personally did not use this for my 24 hours in Zurich!
As a student studying abroad, it was very much worth it to buy the Zurich card.
Where to Stay in Zürich, Switzerland
If you’re just spending 24 hours in Zurich, you’ll most likely still need a place to spend the night. Below are a few hotels, hostels, and Airbnbs in Zurich for you to consider.
Hotels in Zürich
Hotel ibis Budget Zurich City West – $
I recommend the Hotel ibis Budget Zurich City West. I stayed here and found that it perfectly suited my needs. There’s a lounge area downstairs, and each room was just the right size for the two other people I was traveling with and me.
There are double and triple room options. A tram station is conveniently located right out in front of the hotel! Therefore it’s super easy to get downtown from here. Each room is about CHF 90 – 115, depending on when you go and how far in advance you book your stay.
citizenM – $$
I’ve heard great things about citizenM. There’s a location right in Zürich. CitizenM doesn’t do different room sizes – every room is the exact same and features an XL King-size bed.
A buffet breakfast is available each morning. Depending on when you book and whether you book an early bird or flexible rate, the price ranges from CHF 160 – 190.
The Dolder Grand – $$$
Try checking out The Dolder Grand. This hotel is near the cog railway station and features amazing views of the nearby Alps. There’s even a spa, a Michelin-Star restaurant, and a pool with panoramic views. Prices start at around CHF 500 and can go up to CHF 1500.
Affordable Hostels in Zürich
If you’d rather book a hostel, there are quite a few options.
Oldtown Hostel Otter is a 17-minute walk from the Zürich main station and offers free breakfast in the mornings. Prices range from CHF 48 to CHF 200 depending on what kind of room you choose.
Options range between all-female dorms, all-male dorms, single privates, double privates, 3-bed privates, and 4-bed apartments.
Zurich Youth Hostel is another great option. Prices range depending on which type of room you book, and it’s located in an old school from the 1930s!
When is the best time to visit Zürich?
I’d say that there really is no right answer to this question! It really depends on what you want to see in Switzerland.
If you want to see Switzerland covered in snow and maybe do more snow-related activities, then definitely come in the winter months. If you want to do more outdoor activities like hikes, then come during the warmer summer months!
I visited in the spring, and it was shoulder season, so it was definitely worth it.
No matter when you visit, you’ll have a great 24 hours in Zurich.
How expensive is Switzerland really?
I personally did not find Switzerland to be terribly expensive compared to other countries that I visited for the most part.
However, I did stay at a fairly affordable hotel – I stayed at the ibis Budget hotel I mentioned earlier, and I was in a triple, so I didn’t pay that much a night for my hotel.
I found transportation to be fairly reasonable and mostly only did free/cheap activities in the city. The one thing that I did find to be expensive was food. Just keep that in mind!
What to See with 24 Hours in Zurich
Now, of course, there’s a lot to see in Zürich. Below are some of the top places to visit within just 24 hours in Zurich.
If you have the time, definitely try taking a day trip on your extra days and spend one amazing day in Lucerne, or travel to Mount Titlis!
Climb to the top of Grossmünster Church
Grossmünster Church was founded by Charlemagne and built between 1100 AD – 1220. The Swiss-German Reformation began here, and the church itself is built upon the city’s patron saints, according to legend.
Inside, the church is incredibly ornate, with beautiful stained glass windows and intricate carvings.
Climbing to the top of the Grossmünster gives you one of the best views of the entire city, and it’s one of the best things to do within 24 hours in Zurich Switzerland.
You will surely be rewarded if you’re up for the 200-step challenge. The views are ones that you will never forget, trust me!
Looking down below at the lake and the cityscape with the Swiss Alps in the background is truly breathtaking.
Visit Fraumünster Church
Fraumünster Church was founded in 853 by Louis the German, and it is now one of Zürich’s most popular churches.
Today, it is visited often for Marc Chagall’s stained-glass windows, which were added in the ’70s. The church costs CHF 5 to go inside, though you could also admire its beauty from the outside for free.
Fraumunster Church is just a short walk from many of the city’s top attractions.
Get panoramic views of Zürich from Uetilburg
Now, there are two ways to get to the top of this mountain.
You can do a hike, or you can take the S10 train. About two trains leave Zürich HB, every hour, and you can take it almost up to the top.
Once you reach the end of the train line, it’s about a ten-minute walk, and you’ll be at the observation deck, where you are greeted with panoramic views of Zürich!
People-watch or shop until you drop at Bahnhofstrasse
Bahnhofstrasse is the shopping street downtown, and it is one of the world’s most expensive shopping areas! Even if you can’t afford anything there, walking around and people-watch is fun.
Gawk at the beauty of Lake Zürich
Lake Zürich is incredibly gorgeous – the color is unlike any other lake I’ve ever seen before. It’s near many downtown attractions, and it’s fun to sit near the lake and people-watch!
If you’re feeling up to it, you can even do a Lake Zurich cruise ride. If you’re using the Zurich Pass, this is free!
Take a short walk up to Lindenhof for more Zürich views
Lindenhof is a park up on a hill in Zürich that offers excellent views of the city below.
As you can see, there are definitely a lot of options to see the city from above! Lindenhof is pretty centrally-located, and it’s even just a 5-minute walk from Fraumünster church.
See the largest clock face in Europe at St. Peter
That’s right – the largest clock face in Europe is right in Zürich!
Plus, just seeing the clock face is absolutely free. It’s fun even just to go and take a photo of it and be amazed that you’re looking at the largest clock face on an entire continent.
St. Peter is also the oldest parish church in the city.
Ride the polybahn (furnicular)
The polybahn connects old town Zürich to the university campuses. It was created to assist students and professors who had to get up to the campus by climbing hills in the 19th century, and it’s still running now.
Tickets can be purchased at the top or bottom of the hill, and it’s only a 90-second ride!
This is yet another great viewpoint of Zürich that might be more affordable than riding to Uetliberg.
Take an insta-worthy picture on Augustinergasse Street
Augustinergasse Street is a pedestrian-only street in Zürich. It’s filled with so many bright-colored houses and can make for an amazing Instagram picture.
Usually, the street is lined with a whole bunch of Swiss flags coming out from the buildings, but I visited in February, so unfortunately, all the flags were not out. I’m guessing they must be out during warmer months!
Are you spending more than a few days in the area? Consider taking a trip to France. This guide to the Tour du Mont Blanc is sure to convince you!
What to Eat in Zürich
Raclette
Think of raclette like all those amazing cheese videos you see on social media. It’s a piece of cheese that is melted and heated, then scraped off onto whatever you want – though usually, it’s onto foods like potatoes and pickled onions.
I had raclette from The Raclette Factory, and I enjoyed it. I’d definitely suggest trying the truffle cheese! It was unlike anything I’d ever had before.
Cheese Fondue
Switzerland is known for its cheese fondue.
Swiss Chuchi Restaurant is the oldest fondue restaurant in Zürich’s old town and is definitely the most well-known for fondue. You might want to make reservations beforehand if you eat here, though!
Chocolate
When you’re in Switzerland, you absolutely must try Swiss chocolate! There are so many amazing chocolate shops, but some great ones are Max Chocolatier, Läderach, and Confiserie Sprüngli.
If you’re still looking for great places to eat, try checking out some of the Indian restaurants in Zurich!

Frequently Asked Questions
How many days should I stay in Zurich?
You can easily visit the city’s top sites in just 24 hours. However, depending on your interests and budget, you could stay for a longer period of time.
If you’re interested in exploring the city and its surroundings, four days may be a reasonable amount of time. If you want to relax and enjoy the scenery, 1-3 days may be sufficient.
Keep in mind that Zurich is a fairly large city and there is a lot to see and do, so you may want to consider staying longer if you have the time and budget.
How expensive is Zurich?
Zurich is one of the most expensive cities in the world. The cost of living is high, and prices for goods and services are also high. Zurich is not a cheap city to live in.
Expenses such as housing, food, transportation, and utilities can be very costly. If you are not careful with your budget, it is easy to spend a lot of money in Zurich.
As a student studying abroad, I did find this to be one of the more expensive cities to visit.
Why visit Zurich?
Zurich is a stunningly beautiful city situated on the banks of Lake Zurich in northern Switzerland. Visitors can enjoy its lovely setting, with the snow-capped Alps in the distance, and its many cultural attractions.

This is a great guide for anyone with a short time in Zurich! That raclette looks so delicious.
It was delicious! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
I love Zurich! We were there last year, hoping to revisit soon. This post brought back really good memories
I also visited last year! I hope you had fun. It really is a gorgeous city and I’d also love to go back! 🙂
Zurich looks awesome…and that is even before you showed the photo of the raclette, a fun city plus cheese makes it double awesome! 😉
I totally agree! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
I adore Switzerland but I admit I have totally neglected Zurich. It looks like there’s loads to do (and eat!) so I should really visit. Great photos too.
I feel like Zurich is definitely underrated! It’s worth checking out. 🙂
I stil haven’t managed to get to Switzeland but I’ve always dreamt of seeing it because it is so amazingly beautiful, especially Zurich!
I hope you get there one day! Zurich is amazing. 🙂
Zurich has so many wonderful places to visit! I couldn’t think you could include so many in one day! Great itinerary!
It definitely does! I found the city to be very walkable, and whatever I couldn’t walk to, the tram was really easy and quick. If you wake up with a game plan, you definitely can visit almost all of these, if not all of them! 🙂
wow this city is amazing!
I totally agree!
I would love to go to Zurich, especially after reading your post. The Fraumünster Church is beautiful. This is such a great guide. I’m glad it is not too expensive.
I hope you make it there one day! I definitely think if you are a little more picky with your money then you will find that it doesn’t have to be as expensive as everyone makes it out to be. 🙂
Zurich sounds like a charming town! I have never been, so saved it for later! Thanks for such a detailed post
Of course! It’s such a lovely city.
I want to go there just for the chocolate jaja. It really seems beautiful, I’m living in Spain and still haven’t tried the Europe train. I think it would be a fun journey from Spain to Zurich.
Their chocolate in Zurich is amazing… anywhere in Switzerland it’s awesome, honestly. The trains in Europe are pretty reliable and timely, so you should definitely try them out, even if it’s just for a short day/weekend trip somewhere in Spain. I hope you make it to Zurich one day! Thank you for stopping by. 🙂
Great post! Zurich is definitely on my list for this year!
That’s awesome, I hope you get to go! 🙂
Great suggestions! Been to Zurich a couple of years ago and I really liked it! It´s a beautiful city and I loved to han out at the lake! And I had one of the best Pizzas in my life!
I didn’t even think to try Pizza in Zurich, but I bet it was great because their cheese is amazing! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
Lake Zürich is incredibly beautiful, isn´t it?! I visited for a weekend in December and it was so cold, otherwise a boat ride would be my first thing to do!
I absolutely love Lake Zurich! The color is this amazing teal colored blue that I’ve never seen before in my life. If I ever make it back, I am definitely doing a boat ride too. I visited in February so it was also pretty cold… I only people-watched and stared at the lake for a while. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
I just love Switzerland so much!! But on our big trip to Switzerland Zurich was the one big town that we missed! Hopefully we will get to go again so we can go to Zurich!
I’m glad you love Switzerland! Zurich is really an amazing and underrated city, so I hope you make it there next time! 🙂
I didn’t know that you can do so much in Zurich with such a little time! That is awesome, although I’m a bit slow traveler, so I think I would take an extra day to be able to rest too :))
If you go into your day with a game plan, you definitely can visit all/almost all of the things on this list. 🙂 It could also be spaced out over two days if you’d rather take your time! I only had a short amount of time in Zurich (only one day) so I tried to see as much as I could. Thank you so much for stopping by! 🙂
I have never been to Zurich before. I am so glad you brought this destination to my attention. I definitely want to explore this town in the near future
That sounds great – I hope you get there one day! 🙂
I have explored Zurich several times during long layovers and was there recently. You can see a lot! What I would do to eat at Swiss Chuchi again. What a memorable experience eating the truffle fondue. Definitely would go back just to eat it agian.
Yeah, it’s a really walkable city! I miss the swiss cheese too. :/
It’s been a while since I was in Zurich but I love your pictures, brings me back 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
I’ve been dying to visit Switzerland but know that it’s a pricey place to travel in. Glad to see you offered some budget options, super helpful!! 🙂
Of course! I was super worried about how expensive Switzerland was too, which is why I did my best to save money while there. 🙂
I *dream* about raclette on the regular lol! Looking forward to using this guide when I make it to Switzerland this August!
Yay, I hope you love the Raclette!
Thanks for including information on where to stay and how non-expensive you found Zurich. I often think of the nordic countries as being out of my reach because of cost, so maybe I need to rethink my misconceptions!
Of course! It all depends on the activities you plan on doing while there, and if you plan on eating at cheaper restaurants. 🙂
I’ve been to Switzerland a couple of times, but never to Zurich. Guess that should change soon!
Dang, definitely try to add Zurich to your list next time you’re in Switzerland!
I like Zurich. Although personally I prefer Bern, to be honest. But some great recommendations for a first visit. And couldn’t agree more, definitely try some Swiss chocolate.
I didn’t make it Bern, but I’d love to visit one day!
I cannot wait to visit Zurich one day! You’re pictures are beautiful and love all of your tips and suggestions!
Thank you! I hope you make it to Zurich one day. 🙂
The lake looks beautiful! I’ve only been “through” Zurich on a train. The clock tower and the colorful buildings look like it’s worth a visit someday!
It definitely is worth visiting. I hope you get to visit it sometime!
I spent three days in the swiss alps, but did not make it to Zurich! This makes me want to go back even more to continue exploring this awesome country!
I’m so jealous! I really want to go back and spend some time in the Swiss Alps and do more mountain activities. I hope you make it to Zurich one day!
Your guide to Zurich is lovely. Really gives a feel for the city.
Thank you! I love Zurich. 🙂
I can’t remember why, but for some reason I didn’t go to the top of the church & now I’m totally regretting it! What great views of the city 🙂 Loved all of your suggestions, thanks for sharing!
If you’re ever back in Zurich, definitely try going to the top of Grossmunster! The views are so worth it. 🙂 Thank you for stopping by!
Reading your guide makes me even more excited to visit Zurich!! Thanks for sharing!
-Sarah // sarahltravels.com
Of course, I hope you visit Zurich sometime!
You had me at chocolate and cheese and then you also threw in truffles in the cheese! Switzerland is on my short list.
Yay, glad to hear it! 🙂
Zurich looks like such a pretty city to visit! I’ve been to Switzerland years ago but never made it to Zurich. Would love to go back especially for the chocolate and raclette! ?
Yes, definitely try to get to Zurich! It’s so beautiful!
I visited Zurich after a train mishap during study abroad, and I really wish I could’ve seen more of the area. I’ll have to go again and use your guide!
I was there because I was studying abroad too! It’s definitely a beautiful city – I hope you make it there again. 🙂
Zurich looks like an amazing place to visit, so beautiful! Augustinergasse Street looks awesome, great place to snap a photo. I would love to try some cheese and chocolate…I’ve heard its fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
I really wish I had caught Augustinergasse Street with all the Swiss flags out! I’ve seen some gorgeous photos during that time. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
I went to Switzerland a while back, but I didn’t get a chance to explore Zurich much. I want to go back and visit this beautiful city.
I hope you make it back one day! Zurich is gorgeous.
The view from Grossmünster Church looks lovely! I’m sure I’d want to stay more than 24 hours in Zurich!
You could definitely spend longer there if you wanted! 🙂 I only had a limited time there since I went one day during the weekend.
Wow, Reading all this about Zuruich makes wish we had chosen to go to Switzerland when we were in Europe – as long as it was summertime. While I am sure it is lovely covered in snow, I prefer the warmer weather.
It’s probably beautiful there in summertime especially. Everything would be so green and bright! 🙂
We visited Zurich by train and found it easy to do. We too passed on a Zurich Card but it would have been good for the transportation. Although the trams were much more fun. I am glad you got to go to the top of Grossmunster Church for the views. It was so cloudy when we visited that we did not think it was worth the trip up. We did love strolling along the colourful Augustinergasse Street. We were always in search of great chocolate! Thanks for the trip back to Zurich.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who passed on the Zurich Card. I think I would’ve found it more worth it if I was already planning on doing a lot of the activities that the card gives you discounts for. I hope you get to go back one day and go to the top of the Grossmunster – the views are definitely insane. Glad you liked the post! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
What a nice guide! Zurich is so picturesque 🙂
Thank you! It really is a beautiful city. 🙂
Zurich is the biggest city in Switzerland, but it’s not the capital, Bern is!
Oh my gosh, thank you for correcting me! I’ll be sure to update the post.
Thank you for sharing! Zurich is actually on my plans for this year as my friend just move there and I’m dying to visit. I’ll be using this article as a reference!
That is so cool that your friend just moved there! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did when you visit. 🙂
Zurich looks like a lovely city with so much to see and do! Also, that cheese fondue looks amazing!! We’re sold! Thanks for the great guide!
The cheese there is unlike anything I’ve ever had before! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
A mistake which is often made, so you are not alone :). Great article about Zurich though. Glad you enjoyed your visit.
Thank you! 🙂
This is such an awesome post! Definitely saving for when I go to Zurich! Glad to know there are affordable options as I’ve heard it’s expensive.
Of course! As long as you do more budget-friendly things, it’s definitely more affordable. 🙂
Great 24 hour guide to Zurich, I’ve only managed to visit their beautiful airport so far on a layover, so still wanting to visit!
Of course, thank you for stopping by! 🙂
Really hoping to get to Switzerland this year so I’ll be coming back to this, thank you!
That’s so awesome, I hope you have fun!
I’d love to visit Zurich someday and am happy to hear that they have excellent reliable public transportation. The Zürich card sounds like it would be a great deal especially if you plan on also visiting museums.
I agree! I didn’t think I’d get the full use out of it because I didn’t go to any of the museums.
We’ve not been to Switzerland yet. As you say a lot of people report that it is pretty expensive. If the food is indeed expensive how about the drinks?
I think it all depends on where you go in Switzerland. If you eat at more popular restaurants, it’ll definitely be more money. Unfortunately, I didn’t get any drinks while in Switzerland so I don’t have a number for that!
Wow, Zurich looks so awesome. I’ll have to make sure that I get there one day!
I hope you do!
I traveled to Zurich decades ago for work, but had little time to really visit then. I wouldn’t mind going back as we love these types of old European cities, walking Augustinergasse Street and of course, raclette and cheese fondue!
I hope you get to visit there again. Zurich really is a marvelous city!
Zurich in only 24 hours? Travesty, though if that is all the time you have. Cheese (including raclette) yes of course. Chocolate? A must. One small correction for you, the St Peter clock face is no longer the largest in Europe. It is still the largest “tower” clock face, but it has been supplanted as the largest by the Aarau Railway Station Clock In Aarau, Switzerland — with a diameter of 9 meters.
Unfortunately I only had 24 hours there because I was visiting while studying abroad for one day during the weekend. I wish I had more time! Thank you for the correction.
I love wandering in European cities and Zurich would be no different. The lake looks beautiful so I think I would like to do a cruise. Wow -the largest clockface in Europe! Thanks for this guide. Can’t wait to get to Zurich!
I definitely wish I could go back one day and do a cruise! Lake Zürich is gorgeous. 🙂
I’ve always been interested in visiting Zurich, but didn’t really know what was there to see. Thanks for putting this post together. It’s very informative. Augustinergasse Street looks like a fun street to explore.
Of course! I hope you get to visit Zürich one day. 🙂
Zurich looks so pretty! Of course, I’d love to stay longer than a day, but this post is perfect for anyone who might have an extended layover. It sounds like things are pretty expensive, although it’s good to know that food is a primary reason for that. I just love the look of the city and would be sure not to miss the clock at St. Peter!
I wish I had more time than just 24 hours! It’s on my list of places I’d love to go back to. I was only there for a day because I was studying abroad in Ireland and had limited time during the weekend!
I definitely think food is the culprit for the price, because I didn’t find many other things that expensive. However, it does really come down to what you choose to do while you’re there! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
