Lake Lucerne Boat Cruises.
Scenic beauty and breathtaking landscapes along Lake Lucerne.
Surrounded by majestic mountains and historic landmarks, Lake Lucerne invites you to experience unforgettable cruises. Whether aboard nostalgic paddle steamers or modern motor yachts – here you’ll discover Switzerland at its most beautiful, directly from the water.
A Day Trip on Lake Lucerne
Start your day, for example, at the Lucerne Bahnhofquai and board one of the legendary ships. The round trip takes you past idyllic villages, green shores, and famous excursion destinations such as Weggis, Vitznau, or the Rütli meadow. Particularly popular are the nostalgic paddle steamers, which enchant both technology enthusiasts and romantics with their unique charm and direct view into the engine room. If you prefer a more modern experience, choose a ride on the panoramic yacht Saphir or the catamaran to Bürgenstock.
