I loved the Mountain View’s from the top of Mt. Pilatus. Also the historic buildings and views of the alps from Lucerne were incredible.

Really good tour, enjoyable. Had beautiful weather and the cable car ride was fantastic

Bad fog and still went through

I feel like it has been a bit of a rip off. Although the tour itself was ok, the mountain climb should have definitely been cancelled and monies returned. It’s not that we couldn’t go up the mountain, everything was still working cablecars etc, but simply because the weather condition permitted no enjoyment of the trip at all. We tried to make the most of it, just like other people, but a tour that would easily take us 2h, took us less then 30 minutes. There was absolutely nothing to be done up there when the fog was so dense we couldn’t even see 50m ahead. The tour operator should give us the chance to decide whether our money would be best spent in another activity.
