Great experience!! - We met our guide at the train station. Only one recommendation and that would be that your guides have some kind of identifier as a Viator guide. Abraham was amazing! He took train from Lucerne to pick us up in Basel! It was so nice having a knowledgable individual to direct us thru the process! His tour and knowledge of Lucerne left us all with lasting memories! He directed us to a local restaurant. The food was amazing! The boat trip also beautiful! Despite some light rain we had an amazing day!!! Thank you!!!

Great day in the rain. - Even though it rained during our entire trip, our guide was wonderful and the group was small. It was easy to find our guide in the train station and easy to hear him with only 8 in our group. Train ride was comfortable. The Lion monument was covered for cleaning, so that was a bit of a let down. The guide didn't make us walk there for nothing. But lunch in an authentic Swiss restaurant was awesome and delicious. Great choice. The boat cruise was also impressive. A good narrative with snow on the peaks of the Alps. Rainy day or not, it was a great experience. I would highly recommend.

Superior Lake Lucerne Cruise plus added cog train ride - I was thrilled our tour guide was able to arrange for my daughter and me to add the cogwheel train ride to the top of Mount Pilatus which turned out to be the highlight of the tour. Although, we did enjoy the scenic lake cruise IMMENSELY, too!
