Example tour itinerary:
Begin your tour by meeting your guide at your hotel and make your way into central Lucerne. Close to the main station, the concert hall designed by Jean Nouvel is located. Enjoy the fantastic panorama to the city center across the Reuss river and the surrounding mountains. On the walk with your tour guide, you'll continue towards the wooden "Chapel bridge", a 200m long pedestrian crossing bridge. Get informed about the history of the bridge with it's paintings. You'll continue the tour, discovering the car-free innner city circle and the old town. Your tour guide will give you information about the houses and the former importance in 16th century. Walk across the "Spreuer bridge", the second wooden bridge and take a coffee break along the "Reuss" river.
After the break, the walk will continue along the city wall, which was used for defense purposes in early history. At the end, you'll find the "lion monument", a rock relief which commemorates the massacres of Swiss guards during french revolution.
After this two hours walk around in the city center, we'll return to the train station, ready to board one of the commercial boats on lake Lucerne. During one hour we're cruising on the lake, the city view in the back, the mountains in front of us. We'll get off the boat in Stansstad, a typical suburban village countryside. Here we'll change onto the local train, which takes us back to Lucerne, where the tour ends.
