Top Incentives in Zurich
Private Boat Cruise Across Lake Zurich
This is undoubtedly one of the top incentives in Zurich and a way to see the destination in sheer style and luxury. Charter a private boat and set sail across lake Zurich with your group, from luxury yachts to charming vintage speedboats, take your pick and then take to the water. We recommend pausing for a dip in the lake in the summer months, just like the locals do! This incentive is so fantastic as it is so highly customisable! From dinner and drinks on board the deck of a luxury yacht as the sun goes down to a brisk ride in a speed boat – whatever you want to do this incentive can be tweaked to suit your needs perfectly!
Discover the home of the world famous, and of course, delicious Lindt Chocolate at the fun and interactive Lindt Museum. Located next to the historical Lindt & Sprüngli factory, treat your group to spectacular views such as the 9 meter tall chocolate fountain in the entry hall! Of course, it wouldn’t be a good chocolate museum without plenty to try and the Lindt Museum does not disappoint in this aspect with plenty of tastings throughout and even chocolate making courses.
Skiing
A must for any wintertime visitors to Switzerland, skiing! There are so many fantastic ski resorts only a stone’s throw from Zurich that a transfer can be arranged to, such as St. Moritz for example.
