Arrival

After arrival in Zurich, (on the day the tour starts) you will use your Swiss Travel Rail pass to get to Lucerne (1 hour by train). You will have time for an afternoon excursion to either Mt. Pilatus or Mt. Rigi to enjoy the views high above Lake Luzern. Note that you will need to travel with your luggage to each destination and hotel on your own (which are usually conveniently located near the train stations). We will provide a map and directions to each of your booked hotels with your tour documents.

Departure

After a final breakfast in the Zurich hotel, you can continue to your onward destination.
