The hike up Mount Pilatus was simply fantastic! Our guide was great—friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable about the region. The view from the top is incredibly beautiful, and the BBQ afterwards was really tasty and cozy. All in all, a great experience that I can absolutely recommend!

This was a great addition to my visit to Lucerne. I love hiking, so exploring the area on top of Pilatus was perfect. Marion Tobler was an excellent guide - congenial, helpful, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this excursion.

We had an amazing time! Starting in the city centre of Lucerne our guide Caroline took us to Kriens from where we went to the top of Mount Pilatus by cablecar. Beautiful, easy and rather flat hike with a spectacular view - we even spotted ibexes 😍 The BBQ lunch was a great experience: delicious food (also vegetarian options available) with views to the beautiful lake. 100% would recommend😊

Amazing authentic Swiss experience. We are a couple travelling from the US. We met our guide in Lucerne then travelled with the group by bus to Kriens - super easy. Reached the top of Mt. Pilatus by gondola - woow what a stunning ride! On top we did the hike. In the description it said 1h which is pretty accurate. I was a bit hesitant first as normally i‘m not a big hiker but turned out I was perfectly fine! We all enjoyed the explanations of our guide and took tons of photos. The highlight obviously was the BBQ!! We grilled our Swiss sausage over an open fire pit. The bread was amazing too and wow the view. Truly an amazing experience I‘ll never forget and can only recommend to any traveller visiting Lucerne.

Amazing experience. The views up there were stunning, the hike had the perfect easy lenght. It was super nice to not think about where we're going and just following the guide - she brought us to all the best spots! We were a small group, so our guide could answer so many of our questions individually. Oh and delicious BBQ.

Even though the weather wasn’t perfect, this hike on Mount Pilatus was absolutely fantastic. The views over Lake Lucerne were breathtaking, and our guide made the trail so enjoyable with stories and local tips. Reaching the top and enjoying a Swiss BBQ in the fresh mountain air was just incredible. I loved the authentic alpine vibe—it felt real and memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and unique mountain adventure!

Panoramic hike and easy to walk, even for inexperienced mountaineers; the guide was very friendly and I loved his personal stories about the mountain; but the best thing was the Swiss-style BBQ - a top experience!
