Lucerne Holidays


europe
Set in the heart of Switzerland, Lucerne holidays offer an enchanting blend of history, culture and picturesque scenery.

This compact city is built around the tranquil waters of Lake Lucerne and is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture and the iconic 14th Century Chapel Bridge at its centre. Visitors can explore an array of museums and galleries, while a fantastic selection of bars and restaurants cater to all tastes.

Surrounded by the natural splendour of the Lake Lucerne region, ride up to the nearby mountains of Pilatus, Rigi or Stanserhorn to admire the verdant green hillsides and snow covered peaks stretching far in the distance, alongside the city rooftops below.

Trailfinders offers a range of Lucerne holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore Lucerne on a self guided rail holiday, a sociable guided group tour or are looking for advice on how to incorporate Lucerne into a fly drive holiday – they are the perfect people to ask.
