Arrival

After arrival in Zurich, we will provide you with a train pass to get to Lucerne (1-hour by train).The tour will come with a 15-day Swiss Travel Rail pass. 9 days will be used on the tour but you are free to use the remaining days on the rail pass for any (up to 6) pre or post tour days you may have.

The group will meet on the first day at 12:00 pm in the hotel lobby for a casual meet and greet and afternoon excursion. Note that you will need to travel with your luggage to Lucerne and get to the hotel on your own (approximately 2 blocks from the train station).
