This excursion is a must for anyone visiting the Lucerne area. The scenery and views are unparalleled to anywhere in the world. The boat ride around Lake Lucerne was a great way to see the area while relaxing on the water, and the cog wheel and cable cars gave us insight to the residents who live off the land. Our tour guide was personable, knowledgeable about the area, and patient while we climbed to the top of Mt Pilatus (7,000 feet).

Our guide, Martin, was phenomenal. He was knowledgeable and very, very pleasant. We enjoyed the beauty of the day, and enjoyed Martin’s company. We traveled on a boat across Lake Lucerne, a cogwheel train up Mt Pilatus, two gondolas back down the mountain, and a bus back to town. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

This place is the a tourist trap! Long lines for everything. Waited for an hour at each portion of the long journey. They nickel and dime you at every chance and extort money from foreigners. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.
