Dear Team,

I will be arriving at Zurich on September 7 around 11 a.m at hotel near train station. I want to cover Rhine Falls, City Tour and what best i can do in that day. We are 2 Adults and 1 Child (7 Years). Which Zurich train Card to take (9’o clock Pass or Zurich Card) to cover Rhine falls and city tour in most affordable manner. What are the places and time required will be helpful. We shall be leaving from Zurich at around 9 a.m next morning. Is anything to see early morning?

We have Swiss Travel Card from Day 2

Hello dxbbanker, welcome to MySwissAlps!

A ZVV 9 o’clock day pass includes traveling to Schloss Laufen am Rheinfall (only via Winterthur) and the city of Zurich as well, including the boats as far as Rapperswil. I would start with the Rhine Falls and explore Zurich afterwards. I don’t have suggestions for the next morning. It’s too early for anything else but walking around town I would say.

Please find more information here:

Hi dxbbanker,

It takes about an hour to reach the falls from Zurich. How much time you spend there is up to you, you’ll find tips on the page I linked to. The Zurich page I linked to provides plenty of tips of places to visit, boat rides and much more. Please have a look there.

Hi dxbbanker-

If you are jet-lagged when you arrive, you may run out of energy by the time you return to Zürich.

I have never taken a bus tour of Zürich, so I don’t know if you will find one at 4 PM or later.

An alternative is to walk arounf the old town on both sides of the river and along the Bahnhofstrasse. The old city is compact, buses and trams are frequent. The tourist information office (not the train information) which is located in the main station on the main floor can give you maps,and suggest locations to see, and which trams to take.

This map shows everything in the station……;-)

Look for location #109, on the right of the map.

Hi dxbbanker,

You’ll find all information on the Rhine Falls page I linked to in my first post. As for the train: just enter from Zurich airport to “Schloss Laufen, Rheinfall” in the timetable and you’ll see the options.
