We arrived and were upgraded to Mount Titlius as we were only 2 scheduled for Rigi. Our guide Roberto was excellent all day so helpful. Highly recommend this tour

The breathtaking panoramic views from the summit were worth every moment of the journey. The cogwheel train ride offered stunning landscapes, and the hiking trails provided a closer connection with nature. The serene Lake Lucerne in the backdrop added to the charm. A perfect destination for those seeking a mix of adventure and tranquility. Highly recommended!

Our trip guide Peter made our experience truly exceptional. His knowledge of the local history and culture enriched every moment of our journey. He was attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. A heartfelt thank you to our guide for turning a great trip into an unforgettable adventure.

Tour guide was good even though microphone stopped working numerous times. Everyone was early so we got a bit more of a scenic route which was good. But found there wasn’t much to de on the mountain unless you wanted to ski.
Then making your way back to Lucerne very easy with the instructions given. All in all bit expensive for what the day entailed as you were basically your own tour guide.

This was a lovely day trip from Zurich. It has a little bit of everything between the bus ride to the cable car station, going up in the cable car, the cogwheel train, and the beautiful boat ride across Lucern. I liked the independence to do things at our own pace but the guidance of what to do. I highly recommend!

It was a very good experience for us. We loved everything in our incursion. It was such a breathtaking place. Although it was a partly guided tour which was indicated from the beginning, the tour guide was very informative and clear on giving instructions to everyone who went up to Mount Rigi and going back down towards Lucerne. All the transportations were really easy to follow as well. We highly recommend on trying this tour out.

Nice day trip from Zurich for Mt Rigi and Lucerne. It’s mostly self guided (with some good briefing given to you in advance) at Rigi and Lucerne; with decent time to be at your pace for spending time up at Rigi, small hike and in Lucerne. Check the weather in advance, it can get real windy up there. I recommend this tour!

I have seen lots of views from all over the world ranging from New Zealand, Grand Canyon and Canada just to name a few with mountain landscape views and this one topped them all. It was amazing! Easy train from Zurich to Arth-Goldau only 40mins once an hour. Then from Arth-Goldau it’s another 40mins in a mountain train up to the summit. You can also hike instead of a train in under 3hours I wouldn’t recommend in the snowy months. The train was beautifully scenic it’s 72 per person for a day pass. The day was very clear for us not a cloud in the sky which really was lucky for the views in February. One cafe and one restaurant at the top so not a lot of choice for food but we enjoyed some drinks overlooking the views. It does get cold so you can sit inside as well.

The guide was great on the bus heading out of town. It was very good to be taken to a beautiful spot & dropped off to enjoy the sights without a guide. We got very good instructions on what to do and where to meet up at the end of the day to be transported back to the city.
Probably didn’t need as much time as we were given. The whole trip could have been 5 hours instead of 9. There was a lot of waiting around.
