Today is a real adventure in your long weekend getaway itinerary. You discover one of the most famous mountains in Switzerland - Mount Pilatus. It's located nearby Lucerne and is one of the most famous mountains in Switzerland. There are several legends locals believe. One of them applies that Pontius Pilatus was buried in a Lake there, and the Mount was called in his honor. Another one says the mountain is the belly f a giant, laying on his back. More pragmatic people explain the name of the Mount as "cloud-topped." Allow yourself to explore all the legends and experience Mount Pilatus day trips. 

Your journey begins with a 1 hr boat ride to Alpnachstad directly to the foot of the Mount. Then you take one of the steepest cogwheel railways in the world (48 degrees), bringing you to the 7000 (2131 m) feet altitude.

On top of Pilatus, you admire the picturesque view over Luzern, which looks unreal from that height. Moreover, you observe the highest peaks of the area: Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau, Top of Europe, as well as mount Titlis.

You come back by having a fascinating cable car and gondola ride and returning to Luzern by bus.

Please note: The boat trip can be replaced with a train or bus ride in case of bad weather.

This day you spend in Lucerne and immerse yourself in tasting mouth-watering local cuisine with a local expert. You visit the top 5 places and try the famous chocolate, cheese, and wine. Get your bellies ready, as today nobody will stay hungry!

Please note: The day in Lucerne can be replaced with a day trip to Basel.

 Overnight in Lucerne.

This is the last day of your long weekend getaway. Today in the morning, you check out and have your private transfer to the airport. We wish you a great flight and looking forward to hearing your feedback!
