For example, the former owner of the estate „Traubenberg“ in Zollikon was mayor Heinrich Escher, who introduced one of the first chocolates from Brussels to Switzerland in 1697, or that the Swiss national drink Rivella was invented in Stäfa.

From the ship, and using the special map available on Google Maps, you can identify the most visited sites, such as Richard Wagner’s “Asylum on the Green Hill,” Villa Schönberg, hidden behind trees, C. G. Jung’s house in Küsnacht, or the Villa Abendstern, which served as inspiration to Robert Walser’s novel. If you want, you can also get off at one of the stops to see the sights mentioned in the travel guide or stop at one of the beautiful lakeside restaurants, then return to Zurich.
