Most famous Switzerland destinations in one day
The Welcome Week will start with a visit to 3 must-see destinations not too far away from Zurich: Rheinfall (the biggest waterfall in Europe), the "Queen of the Swiss Mountains" aka Rigi and Luzern.
We will start our day first visiting the Rheinfall where we will stay for about 1.5h. Then we will head to the top of the Mount Rigi. On top, we will have a breathtaking panoramic view over many mountains, lakes, and cities such as Lucerne and Zug. Afterwards, we will go on a very easy 1 hour hike downhill to the middle of the mountain (sneakers or any sorts of sports shoes are fine) (taking the cogwheel train instead of hiking is also possible). We will make a break about 1h at Rigi, Kaltbad. After the break, we will get to Weggis by cable car, take a boat trip on the beautiful and mystical Lake Lucerne until we reach the city. There, we will have about 2h to see the city and afterwards head back to Zurich at around 8.30pm.
