Description
This trip is ideal if you have little time but still want to enjoy views of the lake, city, and surrounding area. You’ll travel on a modern boat across Lake Lucerne, taking in stunning sights from the deck, including the city of Lucerne and the picturesque surroundings dominated by the imposing Bürgenstock.
The boat departs from the Lucerne harbour. During the one-hour cruise, you’ll sail to Kehrsiten-Bürgenstock and back. The boat pauses briefly below Bürgenstock so you can enjoy the view, but you cannot disembark during this round trip. After the cruise, the boat returns you to the Lucerne harbour.
