Tour of Lucerne, one of the most beautiful cities in Switzerland.

Lucerne is one of the most beautiful cities in Switzerland. Visiting Switzerland without visiting Lucerne is unforgivable. With 82 thousand inhabitants, the city receives up to 5 million guests a year. This figure itself speaks to the popularity of the city of Lucerne around the world.

The city is surrounded by the Alps on the shores of a huge lake washing the shores of four districts of Switzerland. This gives him a unique look. Add to this the surviving wooden covered bridges of the XIV and XV centuries, richly decorated cathedrals of Jesuit and Franciscan monasteries, houses painted with unique wall frescoes and graffiti dating from 1199, fortress walls, the largest transport museum in Europe, the largest museum of the Ice Age and much more. Lucerne has a very interesting history, directly related to the history of the formation of Switzerland and even the French Revolution of 1792. In addition, it was in Lucerne that the events described in the book “17 Moments of Spring” took place. All this, and much more I will show you and tell you during our tour of Lucerne.

Well? If I am intrigued, I am waiting for your requests.

In addition, the city of Lucerne is very conveniently located. From Zurich or Basel: OK. 1 hour drive. From Bern: 1 hour 20 minutes. So a tour of Lucerne is very easily combined with excursions to Zurich, Bern, Basel. Since Lucerne is located at the foot of the Alps, after a tour of Lucerne, we can climb one of the Alpine peaks.

Or... you can go to the heart of the Alps and climb the funicular to Mount Shilthorn, where the filming of the James Bond film “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” took place.
