Our trip from Zurich to Lucerne and Mount Titlis was absolutely amazing and exceptionally well organised! 🇨🇭🏔️ We had a wonderful time and made memories that will last a lifetime. ❤️ A big thank you to our fantastic tour guide and our bus driver, Elias, for being so friendly and helpful throughout the journey. Everything was perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended! ✨😊
Everything was good except disappointment with not being able to reach tha Titlis summit. The guides Walter and Virgilia from The Best of Switzerland tours were great 👍🏽
It was Amazing and unforgettable experience. Snow capped mountains, cable car and a view of falls an natural lakes, mind blowing.
Beautiful and fun day! I think a lot of the snow was gone because of the warm weather The scenery was amazing!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Our tour guide, Rose was phenomenal!! So warm, engaging, knowledgeable and a joy to be around. We loved every part of the experience!
Rose was our guide for our group tour-turned-private tour. She was incredible!!! Instructions were clear for where to meet her, she was on time, and she was so friendly. She was so knowledgeable but also very personable, funny, and easy to talk to. We had a great time with her and would highly recommend her to do your next tour! We’d love to do one of her walking tours next time. She’s amazing!
To be honest - you can easy do Mt. Titlis from Luzern at your own. For us it was just important to have everything organized before the tour - and that worked really well. We got the tickets for train and cable car ahead of time. We got a nice travel information that we could just follow it during the day. It made it a lot easier to enjoy all the views and to make a stop at Engelberg too.
Easier to follow the instructions given by email and tickets. Not that difficult to go mt Titlis. Just go self guided. It’s worth it and it is very beautiful in mt Titlis.
Perfect on time and great experience. Also for my sons of 7 and 9years.
