Switzerland’s oldest city reveals its story through two excellent guided experiences.
The private tour (2 hours) shines by keeping groups intimate – maximum 8 people – while covering the key Roman sites and the stunning Cathedral of the Assumption.
For those who prefer a broader overview, the 1.5-hour walking tour efficiently connects Chur’s ancient dots, from the handsome Gothic Rathaus to St. Martin’s Church.
We especially love the private option for its flexibility and personal touch – perfect for history buffs who want to dig deeper into specific periods.
The walking tour wins points for its great introduction to 5,000 years of local history at a friendly price.
