Hi Alexis –

I did not look up your earlier posts, but I’d be surprised if you had not been referred to the timetable. It can answer your scheduling questions:

That, plus these links, can help you answer your questions:

I think that you can do both locations, but keep an eye on the timing for the last trips down from Pilatus. And, you will have to pay very close attention to, and plan in detail, on the specific timings to catch the appropriate trains, boats ( maybe) ,etc.

I am in a distinct minority, but my personal opinion is that I prefer to see things that are uniquely Swiss (Pilatus, Luzern itself) and not so much the Rhine Falls (there are a whole lot of waterfalls around the world, and I’ve see a few). ;-).

Each person has their own perspective, but I’d skip the Rhine Falls and focus on the Luzern area. It will be amuch laees rushed trip, and, in my opinion, more enjoyable.

Where will you sleep?

Where do you plan to stash your luggage?
