Is the Zurich Card worth it?: The Zurich Card is a math question, not a yes-or-no one. At CHF 29 for 24 hours or CHF 56 for 72, it covers the airport transfer, all city transport, the Uetliberg trip, lake cruises and free entry to most museums. Reports agree it pays for itself fast when you combine transit with paid sights, and loses money for visitors who mostly walk.
