Overview

Explore the beauty of Lucerne city by night on a 2 hr. Private Tour. This is a captivating experience of creating luminous images which explore the heritage and traditions of Lucerne. The route is filled with juxtapositions of old and new as the modern and traditional fill the skyline.  Making our way along Lake Lucerne and Reuss River we explore the luminosity of Chapel Bridge, Water Tower, Old town and new architecture which fill this extraordinary city.  We make time to create magical night trails as traffic moves through the city. Work alongside a Professional Photographer and master basic techniques or improve existing camera skills and capture flawless shots of Lucerne’s illuminated landmarks.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
