“The best thing about this tour that is partially guided, and gives you flexibility to spend your time in Rigi and Luzern as per your preference. Transportation up and down the mountain are straight forward. Views on top of Rigi are unmatched, totally worth it!”
Ride up Mount Rigi from Lucerne with a day ticket for cogwheel trains and cable cars, flexible timing, and big Alpine views.
“Bring your hiking shoes and walk along the beautiful Alpine trails. We walked along a beautiful trail and had magnificent views all to ourselves. If you are not a walker or hiker you can still enjoy the ride to the top, but it still does involve a significant uphill walk to the transport area.”
Ride Mount Rigi by cogwheel trains and cable car, then relax at Rigi Kaltbad Mineral Baths with entry included for the day.
“Highly recommend for anybody staying in the Lucerne region. The mineral bath and spa were amazing, the view breathtaking, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I took my wife here during our honeymoon and we added a massage and It was definitely worth it! Not to mention the amazing views of mount Rigi!”
Self-guided Rigi day trip from Lucerne with Lake Lucerne cruise and cogwheel train to Rigi Kulm. Plan your own summit time.
“The tour description did not make it evident that the entire tour was self-guided. Nor were we provided with the timetables described in the description of the tour. As such, we had to plan most of our tour as we went. This only became evident by reading others comments/reviews as we were arriving for the departing ferry. I would highly recommend that description be updated to clearly state there are no tour guides from the beginning and that what you are essentially purchasing is only advanced tickets. (Especially since other Viator tours usually have at least one guide at the beginning.) This is especially frustrating as trial markers are very…”
Ride Europe’s first rack railway and cable cars on Mount Rigi, with an all-day pass for big panoramic views over Lucerne.
“What a great experience with incredibly helpful staff and amazing scenery. The views are stunning and there is plenty to see whilst up there. There are shops and restaurants at various points too. You have the option to hike and walk around but also can simply use the railway and cable cars which are great fun. I would highly recommend this activity.”
