Scenic Alps by Rail Track 2

Arrival

After arrival in Zurich, we will provide you with a train pass to get to Lucerne (1 hour by train). Trains depart Zurich every hour going to Lucerne. The rail pass we provide is a 15-day 1st Class Swiss Travel Rail pass. 9 of the days will be used during the tour, and guests are free to use the extra 6 days for any pre or post-tour travel.

The tour group will meet on the first day of the tour at 12:30 pm in the hotel lobby for a casual meet and greet and mountain excursion to the Stanserhorn. 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). We will provide a map and directions to this hotel with your tour documents.

Departure

After a final breakfast in the Zurich hotel you can continue to your future destinations. Please note that if you choose to extend your time in Switzerland, we can delay your final hotel night in Zurich to a later date if needed (there may be an extra charge for this depending on the hotel rate for the final night).

Pre- and Post-Tour Travel

Our Destination Specialists can provide hotel recommendations for pre-tour nights in Lucerne and post-tour nights in Zurich at the end of the tour if you would like. Simply call or email us your plans and we can assist to help make the best of your vacation experience.

Accommodations

You will stay in carefully chosen small 3- and 4-star hotels that capture the authentic charm of the Alps. 

Meals

The hallmark of an Alpenwild trip is our exceptional dining, including buffet breakfasts and many dinner options. NOTE: Alcoholic beverages, specialty drinks, and lunches are not included.
