Lucerne has been one of Switzerland’s most popular tourist destinations since the 19th century. And it’s no wonder: with its luxury hotels, historic old town, Chapel Bridge and Lion Monument, the city is a true gem, nestled between the lake and the mountains.

 On a private guided tour, you’ll immerse yourself in Lucerne’s history. We’ll visit the old town, discover its sights and follow in the footsteps of the Belle Époque – the era in which Queen Victoria spent several weeks in Lucerne in 1868. Her diaries made Lucerne world-famous and sparked a real tourism boom. Along the way, we’ll stop for a chocolate tasting.

We continue by boat to Vitznau. A spectacular journey on Europe’s first cog railway takes us up to the Rigi. After checking in at the Hotel, a relaxing break awaits you at the Mineralbad & Spa Rigi Kaltbad at an altitude of 1,450 metres. Here you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the lake and the Alps whilst soaking in the 35°C spring water.

 In the evening, an exclusive gourmet dinner awaits you at the hotel.
