A must trip!
We ended up upgrading our tour to the Mt Pilatus group. This was the best day! We were able to explore Lucerne, the town is beautiful. We got to go up the cable cars and down the cogwheel train. The views were breathtaking and we grabbed lunch at the top. Ended our day with a nice boat ride. Our tour guide Alex was fantastic! Definitely would recommend.

This was a great way to...
This was a great way to see Mt. Rigi and do a cruise on the lake. The views on both are amazing! Appreciated being able to do this day trip from Zurich. The important thing to know is that the bus does drop you off at the base of the mountain to take the tram up the mountain and you need to be back at a meeting place at the end of the day. The guide does not go with you as they take the rest of the people on a tour of Pilatus. However, they do give you a detailed map and directions with times of how and when to navigate the entire day so you know how much time you have and where to go. We did not have a lot of extra time to explore Lucerne but enough to see a couple of landmarks. It takes longer to find the bus to go back to Zurich than expected as it isn’t the easiest to find, so allow time for that. Overall a good day and glad we did this excursion

Enjoyable Day
The trip was enjoyable. It was not a tour as you are left on your own for the whole day. The boat cruise was too crowded and we were left standing for most of the 1 hour journey to Lucerne despite being first at the queue as other people pushed in and run into the boat. Mount Rigi was scenic at the top of the mountain. Lucerne is a very pretty city.

Fun day in Lucerne with some magnificent guides
It was a very enjoyable and fun excursion; we left from Zurich by bus and the journey to Lucerne (about 1 hour) was super pleasant thanks to the guides Adolfo and Rob, who were very friendly the whole way, sharing very interesting things about Switzerland. What I liked the most was that I learned a lot about the country in a very fun way, and not as boring as other tours. I really liked it and the service was incredible! Lucerne is a beautiful city; it is definitely worth spending a day there. Exceptional guides :)
