Incredible experience- you MUST do it!

This was an incredible experience! The views from the summit were breathtaking and the journey there was super fun. We loved the cogwheel back down to the train station and easily returned to Lucern with no complications. I HIGHLY recommend this experience 🏔️

From Lucerne: Swiss Alps, Lauterbrunnen, Beatus Caves Small Group

David_K, Sep 2026

Well worth the money for...

Well worth the money for the private tour. Matias was excellent, full of knowledge, and flexibility ble with any adjustments. The locations were amazing! The climb to the cave entrance was a lot of steps but I am so happy I made the climb. Well worth it! Recommend the tour and Matias!

Lucerne Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems

DeEtte_D, Sep 2026

A Definite Tour to Take!

This is a must-see tour. Our guide was so well-versed on the history (dates, persons involved, etc.). It’s a lot of walking with some inclines and a lot of stairs, so be prepared. We got tips for places to eat. Learned so much more about the Reformation, why the Vatican used Swiss guards, and how the country listens to its citizens).

Best Tour Guide

We had a great time in Switzerland with our tour guide, Kid! He was humorous, creative with photos, and made sure we were well looked after throughout the trip. He also arranged our own cabin and fast pass, which made everything so much easier and enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour, especially for anyone who loves taking photos while travelling!

Mt Pilatus from Lucerne Including Boat Trip, Gondola, Cogwheel

esuttonjr2015, Aug 2026

Great way to explore Mount Pilatus from Lake Luzerne and see it all!

Great experience give yourself extra time so you don't feel rushed meeting the schedule to catch the boat back to Luzern after the cog railway. Also a comment should be made from Viator that once you take the local bus to the stop for the gondola at Mt. Pilatus there is bus route 15 you can take to get to the lift. If not it is a long walk up a steep incline to get there. Some will have difficulty doing it and will get upset they weren't told! Other than that I felt we got everything we paid for and remember it is "self-guided"!

Luis and Lucerne

Luis was our excellent guide for a 2 hour walking tour of Lucerne. Well worth the money to have a local’s perspective and history of the city. We would not have enjoyed the views of the city from the old walls and towers without Luis. Would highly recommend! The one hour boat ride came after the walking tour without Luis.

Lucerne: Grindelwald, Interlaken & Lauterbrunnen Guided Day Trip

Harkanwal_S, Aug 2026

Unbelievable day. We went...

Unbelievable day. We went in early August and had a perfect day of 28 Celsius. Views were spectacular and the hiking made it a once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend the glacier canyon in Grindelwald and it’s a lovely walk up to the canyon and through it. Recommend bringing some bathers if going during summer as the lake in Intwerlaken is a great way to finish after a big day !

Loretha_G, Aug 2026

Experience God's beauty

This is a MUST DO tour. The scenery was spectacular! If I remember correctly, you can see five different countries from the top of the mountain. Be sure to dress warmly as it can be quite chilly at the top. I would do this again in a heartbeat and highly recommend.

Lake Lucerne 1 Hour Discovery Cruise

Concetta_M, Aug 2026

Beautiful one hour Tour

Easy boarding,, beautiful boat to cruise on. Choice of indoor or outdoor seats, friendly staff, and beautiful scenery. One hour boat tour. Not a lot of information given during the cruise, but that’s OK, time to sit back and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I highly recommend. We got there about 20 minutes early and were first in line to board.
