Lucerne

Lucerne, Switzerland

Lucerne, Switzerland, nestled on the shores of Lake Lucerne and ringed by the peaks of Mount Pilatus and Rigi, is one of the most picturesque cities in all of Europe. It was our final stop on a Tauck Switzerland tour, arriving by motorcoach from Bern. Lucerne made for a spectacular finale — from the medieval Chapel Bridge and the solemn Lion Monument to the frescoed streets of the Old Town and the remarkable Rosengart Collection of Picasso and Klee. Our Tauck group also enjoyed a farewell dinner at the lakeside Seehotel Baumgarten, complete with a traditional Swiss alphorn performance.
