Itinerary
Meet your driver guide in Zurich bus station, drive 1 hours and stop for some sightseeing in Lucerne
Visit the village of Lucerne, capital of central Switzerland. The driver guide will show the main landmarks of the city. Snap a picture of the famous chapel Bridge. Spend some free time to stroll around the typical street
Arrive to Engelberg village, located 25 kilometers south of Lake Lucerne on a large plateau at around 1,000 meters above sea level. This is where the cable car to Titlis is situated
Enjoy the first level of the cable car. Enjoy real nature. Trübsee lake is one of the loveliest mountain lakes in Switzerland. There is just something about its location and its peaceful setting that will make you linger on the shores of the lake for quite a bit longer than expected. When visiting Trubsee in the summer, you can go hiking, biking, or row a boat. Families with kids can enjoy several really nice playgrounds along the shores of the lake. You can find more info about all these activities further below
Ride the famous cableway up in the alps to 3020 m. The Rotair is the first the world's first revolving cable car and offers a 360 degree panoramic view on the Alps. Visit the ice caves and cross the peak walk if it's open.

Traveler reviews
The Alps tour of the ice cave .
That this tour was one of the highlights of our trip, thanks to the wonderful guide Gabriel, (not sure on the spelling of his name) he was very considerate, kind and compassionate about his job. His sense of humor and knowledge went above and beyond just a job for him.
Lucerne/Titlis tour
Good trip overall even with the delays leaving and getting back. Wish the tour company would purchase the tickets before we arrive at Titlus. This would save about 45 minutes of sitting around waiting for the guide to buy tickets.
If you are afraid of...
If you are afraid of heights it isn’t the trip for you. Also motion sickness medicine helps with altitude sickness.
Lucerne is beautiful!...
Lucerne is beautiful! Surrounded by water with beautiful bridges, buildings and an amazingly gorgeous cathedral. Very walkable area! Plenty of time to explore. The cable ride up Mount Titlis is breathtaking. It was foggy at the top so we could not see out which was unfortunate but still overall awesome for the experience. Highly recommend!
Ruined my trip!
Poor communication from tour operator made me miss the tour. I asked the other operators in the terminal and said they don’t have physical office so I have to ask around. And I ended up asking most buses there and missing them. That’s when I tried to call them but can’t connect. Then I sent them messages and they replied 11 mins past the scheduled departure.
