Embark on a full-day guided tour from central Zurich aboard a comfortable AC coach, with mountain transfers via gondola, cable car, and the world’s steepest cogwheel train.

Your English- and Spanish-speaking guide will lead you through Lucerne’s highlights, including the Jesuit Church and the Culture and Convention Centre, with some free time to explore and shop for souvenirs.

From Lucerne, travel to Kriens and take the gondola to Fräkmüntegg, then switch to the Dragon Cable Car for the ascent to Mount Pilatus’ summit (2,132 m).

At the top, discover the interactive Dragon World, stroll the scenic Dragon Trail, or hike to the peak (weather permitting), and unwind on the panorama terrace with sweeping views of the Swiss Alps and Lake Lucerne.

Descend on the thrilling cogwheel train to Alpnachstad, then enjoy a relaxing one-hour cruise on Lake Lucerne before returning to Zurich.
