Mt. Pilatus - what a vuew
This trip was wonderful as it allowed us to see beautiful Lucerne then enjoy the trip up to Mt. Pilatus. The cogwheel train trip was an experience you shouldn’t miss with beautiful views.

Mt. Pilatus - Amazing
I would disregard all of the negative reviews for this tour!
Carlos was early for our pickup and had plenty of headsets for our group. He was well organized and kept the group together.
Mt. Pilatus did not disappoint. Views were simply amazing.
Great day!

It’s a complete experience. It was wonderful to have so many modes of transportation packed into one excursion. The time flies by and it’s the perfect way to see Mt. Pilatus. Yolanda was our tour guide - she is very knowledgeable and friendly. She offered to take pictures of our family as well as give bits of information about the area.

Double check the check in time. The Viator APP showed 9; 30 and it was 9 am. We missed the bus and the tour operator booked us for the next day.

Lake Lucerne friends trip
The description never explained you had to pay another 25.00 to cruise 1st class. For the cost of the excursion it should have been included. Shocking they wanted more money. Felt like a last minute scam. Also it did not feel like a small group with 22 people. Guide was a little difficult to understand.

A perfectly amazing day!
It was an amazing day. We saw so much and experienced a train ride, a boat ride around Lake Lucerne with the most beautiful views, a cog wheel ride up the mountain and a gondola ride down after time at the summit and a lovely walking tour of Lucerne. Our guide, Feyssal Gharbi, was informative, funny and made sure we were comfortable and the very best views of everything there was to see. It was one of the best tours we have ever taken.

Spectacular views - guided tour made it easy to navigate
Spectacular views (had good weather) start to finish, from gondola rides up, hikes, cogwheel train down. Communication was great and guide Yolanda was informative and an absolute pleasure. Was warmer at elevation than expected - would have been fine in shorts and short sleeves / light top.

Great day trip
Beautiful place on top of mountain. Great experience. Not much of a guide though. Took tram and gondola and then boat ride back. Round trip. Beautiful scenery on boat ride back.

This is a fantastic tour! Lincoln is very personable and knowledgeable and entertaining. The views are spectacular! We came from Basel by train.

A great experience
It was a great experience, but would have liked it if were guided better, technically the guides just bought tickets for us and took us till the summit. There was no to little active engagement. But Mt. Pilatus on its own was breathtaking, the views were amazing.

Switzerland in all its glory
Really a perfect day. We explored the charming city of Lucerne,n then traveled to Mt Pilatus. Experienced two different cable cars getting to the top. Explored fabulous views of the Alps, had a delicious lunch, walked to the summit and followed the dragon trail. Then we descended via the steepest cog railway in the world. An hour cruise on lake Lucerne. Everything managed like clockwork. It was an amazing full day that gave us a true taste of Switzerland.
