Help!! Day trip ideas near Zurich?

My company's CFO just informed me that he'll be in the city all day tomorrow and would like to take a day trip outside of Zurich. Does anyone have any suggestions on quaint swiss cities to visit within 2 hours of Zurich? Luzern is an idea but where else??

Re: Help!! Day trip ideas near Zurich?

At 12 midday everyday there is the Mittagsschif which departs from the boat quai just in front of the railway station. It does a round trip for approximately 2 hours (although you can also get off at intermediate stations) and serves lunch - set menu for around 25 Chf or menu. It's a great way to travel further down the lake whilst eating lunch in lovely surroundings and with sumptious views. I think that would earn you brownie points with the CFO
