Tour description
Lucerne is one of Switzerland’s most beautiful cities, situated beside a shimmering lake at the foot of snow-capped peaks. It is famous for its medieval wooden Chapel Bridge, vividly frescoed old town, and lakeside promenades. Small and picturesque, the city is always a delight to explore. On this walking tour, a local guide will reveal the city’s charms to you.
You will cross the famous covered bridge, stroll around the frescoed squares of the old town, and admire the breathtaking views of the lake and mountains. Along the way, you will hear about the city’s history and the legend of the Lion Monument. Both beautiful and rich in history, Lucerne is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
