Zurich was alright but we spent the past two full days in Lucerne and, while indeed expensive, it was worth every penny. Loved Lucerne and the Mt. Pilatus tour which included a cruise on Lake Lucerne, a cogwheel train ride, an aerial tram ride and a gondola ride. Now looking forward to the cruise!

Hi Monica! I actually am not sure 🙁 I had a family member book it, and I think it was actually part of a bundle with our Zürich day tour. Sorry I don’t have a better answer!

What private transfer company did you use to go from Zurich to Basel? I am going in November and can’t find a good one.

Thanks!!

Switzerland is on my list. I would love to take trains around and explore the mountains. I also would prefer smaller towns.

We would certainly want to explore Switzerland if our cruise went from there. Even if it is an expensive place to visit. We had such rainy weather when we first visited Zurich that it would be lovely to wander with those blue skies. And to take the cable car for a clear view from above.
