Traveler reviews
Peaceful. Great to see nature with minimal human footprint.
Peaceful day. Enjoyed tour especially boat ride across Lake.
Beautiful views and...
Beautiful views and experience! We were the only couple out of a full bus that was doing the Mt. Rigi tour. We dropped everyone off in Lucerne and drove 45min away and dropped us off at the cable car with instructions to get on the cable car and go half way up the mountain, take the train the rest of the way up, look around , take the train down to Vitznau, get on the boat back to Lucerne and meet the bus back where we dropped everyone off around 11…. Looking back it was easy but a little overwhelming at first. Regardless we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the views were absolutely breathtaking! I would recommend this tour to anyone who doesn’t mind wondering around a foreign country by yourself..
