    Hi Experts,

    I have read so much about the amazing Swiss Travel Rail Pass. It says it covers boat rides in Lucerne. There is also a page iin the website to talk about it.

    However I wanted to know if the pass covers the yatch 1 hour cruises also in it or are they excluded? Basically what tourist type cruises or trips on the lake are covered by the pass?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Kapil,

    Some of those 1 hour cruises get a 50% discount with the Swiss Travel Pass. The website you find a yacht cruise on will give you fare information. The boat routes that are covered by the Swiss Travel Pass are noted on the PDF map: https://www.myswissalp s.com/swisstravelpass/ validity

    If the cruise you are considering is the one on the Saphir, my post of Apr 21, 2018 – 7:52 AM on the following page might interest you:

    We spent an extra 16chf each for the Saphir 1 hour cruise, with the Swiss Travel Pass. The boat was very nice, and offered commentary. The boat from Pilatus was more basic, no commentary, but the trip was longer.

    Thanks.

    That post and your description in it makes real good sense
