Pass under the seven bridges while sailing on the Limmat River – even if you have taken the Lake Zürich cruise, Limmat boat ride is different from that. The river cruise starts from the National Museum, goes up to the River Limmat, then Lake Zürich, and back. The flat boats with their panoramic glass roofs are designed to pass under the bridges on Limmat while providing an unobstructed view of the picturesque Old Town. The boats named Felix and Regula, patron saint of Zürich, pass by Zürich’s Town Hall, Lindenhof and Grossmünster church. Take an evening cruise from Landesmuseum station and enjoy a different perspective of this Swiss gem. The twilight enhances the splendour of beautiful monuments. The highlight of the boat cruise is that it passes under seven bridges on Limmat. Click lot of pictures of Zürich heritage, and cherish the memories for long time to come! Do arrive early to grab good seats, the evening cruises tend to get crowded during the season time!
