Top Switzerland Rail Tours - page 13

Absolutely brilliant walking tour. Our guide was informative and funny, making it really easy to interact and ask questions. Starting in Old Town you get a trip up the hill in the Polybahn and a great view of the city. For lunch, we were guided to a point to buy our lunch that had variety and affordable options. After lunch, we had a river cruise to our next location, with buses up the hill to attend the cable cars. With the cable cars up the mountain, we got a beautiful view of Zurich and the lake, and got to experience a small hike in the Swiss mountains! Afterward going back down, an easy train ride back to the city completed the tour. This tour is absolutely bang for your buck and so impressive with the amount of public transport use and ease to move through the city. It was a reasonable amount of walking for the tour length, but with frequent stops and time to sit when on transport - members of our tour all kept up. A perfect tour to see not just the city but some of the surrounds too!

This was a nice day trip from Zurich for us. Konrad was a great driver and guide. We appreciated the small group and the transportation. The falls were gorgeous and a great place to see. The town was beautiful and a different experience from Zurich. We appreciated all the information that Konrad shared and he was willing to take pictures for us. A great, overall experience.

The views from Mount Pilatus are stunning! It was lovely having cocktails at the Restaurant/Hotel Pilatus-Kulm overlooking the beautiful scenery. This trip has five modes of transportation- 1. The bus ride to the sight, 2. The a small four person gondola to get a little more than midway up, 3) the larger 22 person gondola ride to the top, 4. The cog wheel train ride down the mountain, and finally 5. The boat ride around Lake Lucerne. You certainly get your money’s worth.
