What you can expect

Visit 2 picture-perfect towns—Lucerne and Engelberg—after passing through the most beautiful natural landscape on the scenic route from Zurich. See Chapel Bridge and the lovely architecture in Lucerne, then continue to Engelberg to enjoy leisure time to hike and visit the cheese making facility.

Take the scenic route, passing by picturesque farmland, through Albis Pass, and along the shores of the Lake of the Four Cantons to the charming town of Lucerne. Your guide points out the main sights like the Chapel Bridge, the Town Hall, the Jesuit Church and the Culture and Congress Centre. Use your free time to explore Old Town on your own and find the stunning Chapel Bridge, lined with wildflowers and arching over sparkling blue waters.

Continue the journey to Engelberg, a typical Swiss alpine village located in the sunny basin under the north face of Mount Titlis. Surrounded by majestic mountains, it was originally founded by the Benedictine monks. Their imposing Baroque-style monastery, with the largest organ in Switzerland, still dominates the centre. Stroll around the village, visit the monastery or hike one of the trails in the beautiful surroundings during your leisure time.

Grab a bite to eat at one of the cosy restaurants, or enjoy a fresh-baked pastry before returning to Zurich via Lucerne in the afternoon.
