Lucerne and Zermatt

6-day independent Swiss rail trip through Zurich, Lucerne, and Zermatt

Railbookers' Lucerne and Zermatt package is an independent rail trip through Switzerland, covering Zurich, Lucerne, and the mountain resort of Zermatt over 6 days. The trip data available to us lists 5 nights, though the operator's own description calls it a six-night tour and also mentions Lausanne as a stop, which does not appear in the destinations we have; this discrepancy is unresolved in our evidence. What is consistent across the description is a route built around scenery: cobblestoned alpine village streets, and panoramic views from Mount Pilatus and Gornergrat Mountain. As an independent rail package, Railbookers arranges the trains between Zurich, Lucerne, and Zermatt, while travelers plan their own days at each stop. It suits travelers who want an alpine, city-and-mountain combination in Switzerland without a fixed group schedule. Prices start from 2,099 US dollars.
