beautiful scenery to take in!
Kathleen_K

Ullie (sp?) was a great guide. The narrow gauge train wasn't in service yet so we didn't experience that. But the cable cars were enjoyable. There were a fair amount of clouds that came in and out which made for some beautiful pictures. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the lake from up top but the mountains were beautiful. The boat ride on the lake was nice to see scenery and more good pics. Having Ullie guide us made for an easy day to see everything and not worry about logistics.

Don’t do this tour

This is a tour we could’ve done completely on our own. Guide was nice, but offered information only when asked about something. His function seemed to be only to accompany us and tell us when to get off the bus and where to go. After going on other tours booked through Viator, my expectations were not met at all. I know admission fees are high for the tram, but with a price tag of over 500+ CHF for the tour, I was expecting much more. So disappointing!

Thank you for your feedback. Some information for you: Sometimes there is no sympathy or the guests don't ask any questions. If the tour guide simply tells things on his own, the guests may find it boring. Regarding the price, your information is not correct, because the tour costs CHF 395.- and not USD 500.- But as you booked through Viator, please calculate that you are paying them a high commission. Kind regards

bad weather but still great

We started on a cloudy morning with our already known tourguide Mike. He took us to the gondola by bus and we drove to Mount Pilatus. Half of the way we were only in the clouds. Mike made the best of it and with a great meal and a slightly longer tour of the hotel's history we were lucky enough to catch a short eye of the surrounding region. Because of the weather, we stopped along the way to have a look at Lucerne from above. The boat tour that followed was informative and a good closure of the day. We didn't actually see much, but the tour was still entertaining and exciting.

As I told you on the tour: If I could control the weather, I would be the richest tourguide :-) Even on that weather, for me it was a great tour with great guests! Thank you!

Enjoyable tour with just four in our group. Unfortunately we did not notice, that the cogwheel train does not run. Peter was a nice tourguide with a lot of knowledge about everyday life. It was great, that we did not get bored with historical dates and numbers.

Amazing, fun and educational!

The whole trip was absolutely fabulous, one of the best excursions I’ve ever had. Our guide was amazing, Euli was friendly, kind, fun and extremely knowledgeable. The excursion was a bit pricey but worth every cent. My only negative comment would be, why don’t you share the phone number of the guest with the guide, it sure would make it easier to meet up!

Thank you for your feedback and the hint about the number. We had numours guest, where we have the travel agency as main contact - which does not help us at all (at the starting time in Switzerland, the travel agents in US are still sleeping) ;-) Hope to see you again in Switzerland

No tour guide

There was no tour guide. We were on our own. Billed as a small group tour, which it wasn't. Finding transportation back to the transportation center wasn't easy. It wa an expensive ripoff.

Good morning This review is most probably not for this tour, as we do not have any booking for Sept 6th for this tour. Could you please write this review to the right operator, as it does not belong to us. Thank you.

Organisatorische Top-Leistung vom Reiseleiter, welcher uns an den langen Schlangen vorbeigeführt hat. Sehr lobenswert! Wir haben uns sehr gut mit den anderen Gästen (es waren nur vier andere Leute mit uns) unterhalten und dadurch war es eine sehr angenehme Tour.
