Overview

Escape Lucerne for an exclusive private journey through the heart of the Bernese Alps. Combining luxury travel, legendary alpine scenery, and historic Swiss transport, this full-day tour is tailored for travelers seeking a seamless and personalized mountain experience. Your day begins with private pickup in Lucerne, driving through picturesque mountain passes toward Lake Brienz. Board a scenic lake cruise to admire turquoise waters framed by dramatic cliffs and roaring waterfalls. Next, ride the historic Brienz Rothorn Bahn—Switzerland’s famous cogwheel steam train—as it climbs past alpine meadows to deliver panoramic views of the Bernese Oberland. Conclude your excursion in vibrant Interlaken, set between two glacial lakes. Take free time to stroll the promenade, shop for Swiss watches or artisan chocolates, and soak in views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks. Includes private transfers, driver-guide, and all cruise and steam train tickets.
