Rigi:Queen of the Mountains with Fondue or Cheese Tasting & Lucerne Tour in Lucerne - cffc7a1579630f441c9a68d51fe0a7ac

Déjese cautivar por el encanto cautivador de Lucerna, la puerta de entrada por excelencia a la Suiza central.

Admirada por figuras prominentes como la Reina Victoria, Wagner, Audrey Hepburn, Rachmaninoff, Gorbachov, Charlie Chaplin, Alfred Hitchcock y muchos más durante los siglos XIX y XX, Lucerna ha consolidado su reputación como un destino impresionante.

Con una fascinante leyenda que cuenta que un ángel guió a los primeros colonos a construir una capilla en Lucerna, la ciudad irradia un encanto atemporal y una sensación duradera de gracia.

Esta encantadora mezcla de historia, leyendas y admiración de celebridades ha otorgado a Lucerna un carisma inconfundible.

Como guía, le extiendo una cálida invitación para embarcarse en un tranquilo paseo por esta joya suiza.

Descubra el encanto que cautivó los corazones de las celebridades y experimente la magia imperecedera de Lucerna. Desde sus paisajes icónicos hasta su rico tapiz de leyendas, deje que el encanto de Lucerna se despliegue ante usted.

En el punto más alto del Rigi-Kulm, a 1.797 m sobre el nivel del mar, admiraremos un magnífico panorama sobre el lago de Lucerna y los Alpes cercanos.

Al marido de la reina Victoria, el príncipe Alberto, le encantaba Lucerna, el lago de los cuatro cantones forestales y las montañas.

Según la leyenda, en 1837 subió al monte Rigi, donde recogió una rosa alpina para su amada esposa y, tras secarla, le llevó una flor a Victoria, que siempre la llevaba consigo.

En 1868 viajó a Lucerna, donde pasó cinco semanas. Naturalmente, también escaló el Rigi.

¡Dicen que el viaje le hizo bien!

La ciudad se hizo famosa entre los británicos y el nombre de Victoria jugó un papel muy importante en el desarrollo de la industria turística nacional suiza.

A tan solo 20 minutos a pie por debajo de Rigi Kulm se encuentra una fábrica de quesos. Aquí podrá degustar auténtico queso de montaña suizo (y llevarse su queso favorito) o disfrutar de una fondue de queso con vistas a los Alpes.

De regreso al tren y al teleférico, haremos una pequeña caminata.

This is the plan

Check out the plan below to see what you'll get up to with your local host. Feel free to personalize this offer with Iuliia .

  1. Meeting point

    Meet at Torbogen Luzern - Lucerne to start your journey

  2. Itinerary

    This is what our experience could look like, but it’s not set in stone! Once you book, you can chat directly with your host to make small tweaks to suit your preferences.

  3. KKL

    Jean Nouvel's architectural masterpiece. Сoncert hall with a capacity of 1700 people, has become an emblem of the city. The imposing and elegant roof stretching over the lake serves to bring clearly distinct architectural features together: the Concert Hall, Lucerne Hall, conference rooms and art museum.
  4. Chapel Bridge

    The world-famous wooden bridge is the most photographed spot in Lucerne.
  5. Fritschi fountain

    There is a legend in Lucerne about a fun-loving farmer named Fritschi. Every business trip to Lucerne ended with him visiting taverns and having fun. He bequeathed all his money to one of the guilds to serve wine to the poor during carnival. To this day, the guilds fulfill his wish.
  6. Musegg Wall

    Lucerne began building the city fortifications in the 13th century - a symbol of power and domination!The towers and the Musegg wall are opened from 1 April to 1 November.
  7. Lion Monument

    Have you ever heard the expression: "No money, no Swiss"? it's not about the banks at all. The mercenaries are the history and the present of Lucerne. We'll talk about how it all began at the most mournful and moving piece of stone in the world.
  8. Lake Lucerne

    A boat trip on Lake Lucerne is simply part of a stay in Lucerne.
  9. Mount Rigi

    With a breathtaking 360º panorama, the Rigi offers a first-class mountain experience for all four seasons. A very special experience with the first mountain railway in Europe!

She came to our hotel to get us, knew all of the history, helped us get fondue dinner reservations that day and lunch reservations at an impeccable Italian restaurant the next day as well, and didn't charge us time for getting us to a boat trip and continuing on our own to Burgenstock that was the highlight of whole trip.Favorite tour stop with favorite guide

We contacted Lullia early on and told her the kind of tour we wanted. A mix of history, where to go, mountain hiking, lake cruise, etc. She got back with us quickly and proposed some activities, we responded with what sounded good and left it up to her to organize. We started early in the day so we could fit everything in. When we finally met she was very relaxed but diligent on how we went thru the day. She recommended places to visit mixed in with in depth history about how Luzern came to be and evolved. We had a relaxing hike on top of Rigi, ate lunch on top at a mountain cheese maker, wandered around mountain paths, cruised the lake, strolled thru the city. Never rushed but very pleasent. It was a long day but exactly what we wanted. Probably the best guide we have used in all of Europe. Luzern how you like it!

luliia is the perfect guide for a tour of the beautiful city of Bern. She is very knowledgeable about the city, and she can answer any questions you have about the city.1 would not consider using any other guide if you can get luliia. I feel like we made a friend for life just spending a few hours with her. Thank you for a wonderful experienceWonderful Experience!

Lulia was a last minute substitution because we changed our timing due to a rain forecast. What a treat! She has a wonderful personality, and we laughed a lot as we walked around. Yet she is also very knowledgable and well traveled herself-so we also learned a lot, We call this kind of tour a "lay of the land" tour, to acquaint us with the city where we have just arrived and would spend a few days. It was perfect.Perfect

luliia is an amazing guide. Having lived in Ukraine, Italy, and now Switzerland, she has wonderful perspective on the history and culture of Europe. Her personality is incredibly upbeat. We had a lot of fun walking around Lucerne with her. Because of her nationality and language skills, she gives lots of tours for Eastern Europeans. However, her English language skills were very good. Iuliia also gave us lots of ideas about other hikes and day trips to take around LucerneAll you need to know about Lucerne

More about me

I learned to read at the age of five and quickly fell in love with fairy tales.

For 11 years, I studied the cello at the same school Oistrakh graduated from in Ukraine.

My favorite subject in school was history, my true passion. I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist, but I graduated from the acting faculty and worked as an actress in the theater.

In 2008, I moved to Venice and gained experience in travel companies hosting tourists throughout Italy, France, and Switzerland. So, even before I moved to Lucerne, I knew Switzerland very well!

In 2015, I received my guide license in Venice.

In 2020, I moved to Switzerland, which is now my home. Here, I have my family and continue to work as a guide.

I promise not to overwhelm you with too many dates and names.

See you soon!
