A walking tour of the charming city, set beside the gorgeous lake with spectacular mountain backdrops, will include the medieval Chapel Bridge, decorated with paintings that depict the city’s story. Later, we’ll sail across Lake Lucerne to Brunnen for a train to Arth Goldau where we board a cogwheel train for the climb to the top of Rigi Kulm, Mount Rigi’s highest peak. From the top, we’ll enjoy sweeping views of the glistening lakes and mountains below. Once you’ve had your fill of the sights, we’ll take the cogwheel down to Vitznau where we’ll return across the beautiful lake to Lucerne.

We think you’ll love this chic lakeside town for its irresistible Mediterranean vibe. Enjoy today completely at leisure to enjoy Locarno at your own pace. Known as the town with the warmest climate in Switzerland, it’s been a popular holiday destination since the days of the Roman Empire. Perhaps visit the 15th-century Castello Visconteo and you’ll see an exhibition of Roman and Bronze Age artefacts.
Situated on the shore of Lake Maggiore, you may also like to take a gentle walk along the idyllic lake edge. Or use your Ticino ticket on the funicular and cable car to visit the sanctuary of Madonna del Sasso, an important place of pilgrimage set amongst the most magnificent scenery.

Another day of wonderful scenery awaits. We take a leisurely route, by train, to Montreux via Brig and Spiez, to appreciate glorious views as the track navigates the natural bends and inclines of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Region of Jungfrau-Aletsch. En route we cross the Kander viaduct, pass the beautiful mountain Lake Oeschinen, and enjoy views over the spectacular Lötschen Valley. The last part of the journey, from Zweisimmen, is possibly the most spectacular, where the line is at its narrowest and the view over Lake Geneva is remarkable.
