Outstanding day in Lucerne - We had a great day in Lucerne with Michael. Even clouds and a hint of rain couldn't take away from the beauty of the place. Michael is a wonderful guide. He asked us about things we wanted to see/do and we did them. Don't miss the boat ride around Lake Lucerne.

Worth it - We are so glad we did this tour! Abraham was absolutely amazing and such a joy to spend the day with! I'm not sure we can say we had a favorite part, Lucerne as a whole is just beautiful!

Be prepared for an excess... - Be prepared for an excess of religious indoctrination. We couldn’t even look out side the train to see the countryside. Not good.
