Great view of the Alps mountains from Mount Rigi. The bus dropped us at Weggis. Took the cable car and cogged wheel train to Mount Rigi. We got to spend about 2 hours up there. Took the cogged wheel train back to Vitznau. Immediately upon reaching Vitznau, we had to board the boat to Lucerne. The one hour boat ride from Vitznau to Lucerne was awesome with some spectacular view of the mountains and the lakes and the small towns around the lake. Once we reached Lucerne we were on own again to explore the town from about 2 hours. The bus came in at around 545pm and took us back to Zurich. Overall it was a good trip but it would have been nice if we had a guided tour of the Lucerne city.

The scenery was great, but the tour guide left us to our own devices to a large degree which could be difficult for first time travellers.

This was a self-exploration tour. The coach dropped us off at Wegis where we boarded the cable car and cogged wheel train to reach the top of Mt Rigi. Then we descended on the cogged wheel train down to Vitznau where we only had minutes to board the boat to take us to Lucerne. Once in Lucerne we had about 2 hours free time to wander around before we met up with the coach to take us back to Zurich. All in all, an enjoyable day trip provided you can self-manage your time and follow their schedule sheet.
