day 1Lucerne, Lake Thunersee & Interlaken

Zurich - Lucerne - Interlaken.Departing from Zurich this morning, we head south to the historic city of Lucerne. You'll have several hours of free time to explore and enjoy a spot of lunch. During your free time you can visit the Kapellbrücke (Chapel Bridge), Europe’s oldest covered bridge, built in the 14th century and decorated with paintings of Swiss and Lucerne history. You can also visit the Lion Monument, the world’s steepest cogwheel railway to Mount Pilatus, and the Richard Wagner Museum. As you stroll through cobbled streets and colourful squares, take in the beauty of Lake Lucerne and the Swiss Alps.
We continue south to Lake Thunersee and the St. Beatus Caves. A thunderous waterfall beneath striking Swiss buildings with breathtaking views greets you on arrival. Just five minutes beyond, you will have the opportunity to visit the St. Beatus Caves, a 14-kilometre labyrinth of caves awaits, filled with stalagmites, stalactites, grottos, and gorges—rich in mystery and history.
Our final stop is Interlaken, where we stay for the next two nights. Nestled in the Bernese Oberland region, this resort town is famed for its stunning natural beauty and adventure opportunities. You can enjoy the crisp mountain air as you settle in for the night and reflect on a day of discovery.

Excellent based on 836 customer reviews from

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.
