Zürich - River taxi running along the Limmat River

Zürich is resplendid with transport and water - the combination of which provide one of the most excellent ways to get around the both the city and Switzerland

The Water Taxis that play the Limmat River through central Zürich are an excellent way to get through the city and to take in some of the sights of the city - running from the Landesmuseum and Enge past the Fraumünster and Grossmünster and the picture St Peters Church - which sports the largest clock face in Europe
