This guided tour takes you up to Mount Pilatus and back to Lucerne by ship, a 5 1/2 h round trip. A short bus ride takes you to the bottom of the cable car up to the peak, on top you have time for lunch and sitting in the sun (provided there is any) and then it's back down the mountain, this time with the cogwheel railway to Alpnachstad from where a one-hour boat ride gets you back to Lucerne. The multi-lingual guides give you some commentary on the beautiful spots you're visiting.
