Day Trip Details

We will meet at the Sihlquai Bus Station parking lot at the scheduled time and then travel to Lucerne. Along the journey, you'll learn about the region's history. Upon arrival, you will receive information about the time and location for our rendezvous and your boat ticket. You will have 6 hours of free time to explore Lucerne.
