Your private Mercedes and your own English-speaking driver collect you at your hotel in Lucerne in the morning. You cross the Swiss border into Alsace and by late morning you are standing in Strasbourg — no train changes, no timetables, no carrying shopping bags across platforms. Strasbourg is the official Capital of Christmas, and it has held the title honestly: the Christkindelsmärik dates from 1570 and is the oldest Christmas market in France. More than 300 wooden chalets fill eleven squares of the Grande Île, under the Great Christmas Tree of Place Kléber and the illuminated Gothic cathedral. You explore it at your own pace, with time for mulled wine, bredele biscuits, Alsatian crafts and a proper lunch. In the afternoon your driver takes you 70 km south to Colmar — six separate markets, coloured timber-framed houses, and the lamplit canals of Petite Venise, the quarter that inspired the village in Disney's Beauty and the Beast. In the evening we drive you back to Lucerne.

What are people saying about Lucerne

Bradley_D, Oct 2026

Take this tour!

This was a wonderful tour made especially enjoyable by our tour guide Jacob. My husband and I were joined by six women from Massachusetts. Jacob was very informative and patient with people needing extra time. The boat ride was lovely and the cog train up the mountain and the cable car down was great with enough free time on the mountain to catch a lunch and have a little break. We needed to do a little walking but not strenuous unless you are physically not able to walk for 15 - 20 minutes at a time. Beautiful weather, great scenery, and a great guide.

Mount Rigi Day Trip from Lucerne

Daniel met us at the pier and guided us through a wonderful day. Our group was 6. Every aspect of the tour was interesting and we had great weather. Views from the lake ferry were beautiful. The cog railway ride was fun. Views from the top of Mount Rigi were fantastic! The gondola ride back down was packed full of people. Never experienced anything quite like that before! The day was something we will always remember!

Mt Pilatus from Lucerne Including Boat Trip, Gondola, Cogwheel

Sara_M, Sept 2026

Such a great experience...

Such a great experience and easy to navigate throughout. The morning boat ride was lovely, and we enjoyed a beer while waiting fir our ride on the cogwheel (we got an advanve reservation, as recommended, so only had about 45 minute wait to ride to the top). We then walked around on top of Mt Pilatus for about an hour before sitting down for a bite and glass of wine on the outdoor restaurant at the top. The ride down on the gondola was also scenic, though we almost got off too early. (Be sure to stay on the ride all the way to the end!) Then following the signs to the bus back to Lucerne was another nice, easy walk. Highly recommend this day for anyone as it can be adapted for all avtivity/mobility levels.

Gomatie_S, Sept 2026

Amazing Experience

First of all, I read the reviews before I booked this trip and others mentioned using tour guide Pavel. I requested him and I am so glad I did. He went above and beyond to ensure that this trip was amazing..it was a pricey trip as the minimum was for 3 people, but only two of us went. However, I am 61 and my aunt is 75 and this was well worth what we paid. Pavel took such good care of us, stopping at several scenic spots for us to get some amazing pictures. He even took us up to Murren which was not part of the original itinerary and the restaurant he suggested had a splendid view of the mountains and the food was excellent. I would recommend requesting Pavel if you book this trip. Booking through Viator did not disappoint. Bucket list, checked!

While it’s a long day, it’s worth it! The scenery, the views, and the locations are amazing. It may seem like you’re moving along at a quick pace, but then you get to relax at the Top of Europe. Olga and Ping were very friendly and professional and did a great job of explaining the itinerary while offering fun tips.

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).

Supportive team you definitely can be trusted.

Well organised and supportive team. I lost my cellphone and when I found it again my bus has off to the next travel destination. But the staff from the office called me and arranged us to catch up another bus to the next meeting point to continue our trip without any problems. We are so grateful everyone who shares their hands with us.
