Excellent day, we had lake views, towns, bridges, snow, ice cave, everything, recommended! Our guides, Giada and Monika were really nice and knew her facts and places. "Best of Switzerland" tours is your right choice.

Amazing trip! Definitely worth the money. The guide was friendly and helpful. Going up to Mt. Titlis is definitely an experience and well worth it! The time allotted at each stop was appropriate and we didn’t feel rushed.

Full description

Enjoy a day trip from Zurich to the winter wonderland of Mount Titlis with a guide. Discover the beauty of Lucerne, enjoy a scenic drive to Engelberg, experience an unforgettable adventure on the Ice Flyer chairlift, and cross the Titlis Cliff Walk bridge suspended over the Swiss Alps. Departing from Zurich, enjoy a scenic drive along the shores of Lake Lucerne en route to the city of Lucerne. Along the way, your tour guide will highlight the city's most notable landmarks and include a photo stop at either the Lion Monument or the lakeside, depending on traffic conditions. Afterward, enjoy some free time to explore Lucerne on your own. From there, continue the journey to Engelberg. The breathtaking ride up into the high alpine glaciers of Mount Titlis begins here. From the Rotair revolving cable car on your way up to the mountain, get spectacular views of the deep crevasses in the glaciers, and the immense chunks of ice that break off in spectacular fashion. Enjoy incredible views over the Swiss Alps from the Panorama Restaurant on top of Mount Titlis. Visit the Ice Grotto, or take the Ice Flyer chairlift to get up close to the glaciers at an altitude of over 9,800 feet (3,000 meters). Adventure seekers can slide through the snow and down the mountainside on a snow tube – the choice is yours.
