What to expect

Embark on a self-guided tour to explore Lucerne's majestic Mount Pilatus, a site rich in legend and breathtaking views. According to folklore, a dragon stone fell from the sky in 1420, and it is said that the Roman governor Pontius Pilate is buried in Lake Pilatus, while a petrified man stands guard outside a cave. The Pilatus massif rises 2,128 meters, captivating the imagination with its mystical charm. Take a panoramic gondola ride to the summit, where the new "Dragon Ride" offers stunning views as if soaring through the sky. Admire 73 Alpine peaks from the summit at 2,132 meters, and enjoy the restaurants and terraces offering magnificent vistas. Afterward, explore Lucerne, visiting the Chapel Bridge and the famous Lion Monument while enjoying free time in the charming Old Town

Recommended! Beautiful view at Lucerne, and amazing one at Mt Pilatus. Cable car ride was included, and it’s a nice experience. Unfortunately the weather was foggy, couldn’t see the whole mountain, but at the top it’s like above the cloud experience.

The mountain view is very nice and I would come back again. The cable car to the top take about 50 mins.

Smooth booking and comfortable bus with charging. However, we were transported together with the bus tour to Titlis, meaning we reached back at Zurich at 5.30pm instead of 4pm. Fortunately our flight is late and not affected by this, but would be good if the tour agency can inform prior. We also had a tad too much time at Pilatus. 2 hr stop at Lucerne. Pilatus is glorious but may be subject to cloudy weather. Thankfully cleared up while we were there while it was snowing. However we can still enjoy the view on the cable car and midway point. Last descent is 3pm.

We had a wonderful time on our trip! We had a good group of travelers with us as well. Our driver, Tenasis was easy going and kind. He even offered to take a group picture of us and even took a picture with us as well! He arranged our day so that we wouldn’t miss the views on Mt. Pilatus since the weather forecast predicted some rain that day. We appreciated that beautiful the views were undoubtedly beautiful! Thank you for a great trip!

Mt Pilatus was closed so we went to Mt Titlis instead -- even better! ❤️ Enjoyed the cable cars up the mountain. I highly recommend the ice flyer, amazing view of the alps. Aside from Mt Titlis, we also spent 1hr in the old town of Lucerne :) Tour guide was so friendly! I also liked that they gave water & snacks in the bus. fun and unforgettable experience!

From the very beginning of the trip, from the meeting point at Limmatstrasse 4 until our return to the same location, we were served with friendliness and information. Even when there was an issue with the pickup at Pilatus, we were picked up by another car dispatched from Zurich.
