Worth it! - Ben G., our tour guide, was as good as it gets! Walking tours were very good with Ben’s extensive knowledge and great personality. Stopped enough times to talk as well to help my spouse catch up with her personal mobility device.
The train rides were relaxing but a lot of stops. The Interlaken lake views from the train were beautiful. Super clean and nice trains.

Train from Lucerne to Interlaken - The walking portion in Lucerne was just the right amount of sightseeing. The group size was good, not too large. With our excellent guide Juliana, we were free to enjoy our tours, she kept everything going wonderfully. The train was perfect, we had a gorgeous sunny day!

A 5-start tour - During my solo trip, I chose a second experience with Switzerland Viva Tours, and it also exceeded my expectations. We did a city tour in Lucerne, where our guide Juliana shared fascinating stories about the history and culture. Then we took the panoramic train and had lunch along the way. I felt like I was looking at postcards because the scenery was breathtaking—alpine villages and more than five lakes along the train tracks. We finished in Interlaken, where we had some time to buy souvenirs. A 5-star tour!

Wonderful day - Juliana was an amazing guide. She provided excellent information and did a great job making sure my elderly mother had places to sit. The train to Interlaken was amazing, the weather was perfect and Juliana made sure we knew where to sit to have the best views. The chocolate samples were a nice treat!

A Perfectly Organized and Scenic Tour - I had been looking forward to this tour for a long time, and it truly exceeded my expectations! We started with a two-hour city tour in Lucerne, where our guide shared fascinating insights about the history, hidden gems, and local culture without overwhelming us with too much information.
After the tour, we boarded the panoramic train. The views were incredible, and we enjoyed lunch on board while taking in the beautiful scenery. We then arrived in Interlaken, where we spent about an hour walking around, watching the paragliders, and enjoying some free time to buy souvenirs.
The timing was perfect, and our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

A nice day on panoramic train - We've started with Lucerne exploration and even had a nice chocolate stop in a very traditional shop - I would say even historical. Followed with a nice 2 hour panoramic train ride towards Interlaken. At the beginning it was a bit foggy but after 20 min the landscape changed completely, this change was fantastic. Our guide took care of everything tickets, easy change of transportation and giving us interesting information but without overloading us. We had a very nice day!!

Panoramic train/cogwheel - Our tour was in a stormy day so we had quite limited visibility but not something you can control.
We saw quite an amount of snow and is amazing how the engineers developed the railway through rocky mountains and quite hilly places, this is why this is not just a normal train but also a Cogwheel in some parts.
Our guide was very knowledgeable about history and culture, it was great to have him.

Fantastic tour on Swiss trains - We couldn't leave Switzerland without experiencing it's majestic trains and this tour definitely had it all. We started with a easy Lucerne Old Town tour which is very charming and has some impressive paintings and buildings. Panoramic train ride was about 2 hours and you can have some food, snacks in the train restaurant. The scenery was beautiful and we were lucky to have a very sunny and clear day. Our guide took photos, told stories and made the transitions very smooth during the day, many thanks to Juliana. Overall a fantastic tour.
