Book a transfer from Zurich to Lucerne — from Switzerland's cosmopolitan financial capital to one of Europe's most picturesque towns, set on a crystal-clear lake surrounded by dramatic Alpine peaks.
The 52 km journey takes 45 minutes to 1 hour heading south through the green Swiss Mittelland, with the Alps growing ever more dramatic on the horizon before arriving at the shores of Lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee).
Lucerne is Switzerland at its most magical — a medieval town of covered wooden bridges, waterfront promenades, and cobblestone squares set against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains reflected in the crystal waters of Lake Lucerne. The Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke), Europe's oldest covered wooden bridge dating to 1333, is the iconic symbol. The Lion Monument carved into rock, the old town's painted facades, Mount Pilatus (accessible by the world's steepest cogwheel railway), and Mount Rigi (the "Queen of the Mountains") are unforgettable. Lake cruises on vintage paddle steamers offer panoramic Alpine views that define the Swiss experience.
