Day 2 http://www.myswissalps.com/ti tlis/gettingthere

Day 3 http://www.myswissalps.com/rh inefalls/gettingthere

Day 4 We’ve covered that – see http://www.myswissalps.com/fo rum/topic/gotthard-panorama-express-day-trip.

For most of your days you will need to first catch a bus from Kriens to the main Luzern Station. The lake cruises depart right out the front of the main station.

Thanks a ton for quick reply.

Can you suggest what all we can see with Rhine Falls in Zurich on same day .

As Gotthard Panorama Express is not recommended to cover the same day, please tell if Golden Pass Triangle can be covered the same day

How much time will it take for bus to main Luzern stations

Thanks in advance

I never said I didn’t recommend the Gotthard Panorama Express in one day. I’m just providing information to help you make your own decision. I’m net even sure what a Golden Pass Triangle is. Have you read http://www.myswissalps.com/go ldenpass?

The bus might take 10 minutes from Kriens but you could easily find out by checking the SBB Timetable.

For Zurich see http://www.myswissalps.com/zu rich/activities.

Hi,

Ok, then I would say that I think we should drop GPEX from our plan as we have booked Hotel In Luzern.

You are right, I was talking about GOlden PASS .Can we cover golden Pass in single day .

Thanks Again

Have you checked the SBB timetable to see if you are comfortable spending so much time on a train. You will find it will take you roughly 5 hours to reach Montreux via the Golden Pass Line and 3 hours to get back via the fastest route. That doesn’t include any time you want to spend in Montreux.

I wouldn’t think a 4-year old would find that a great day out.

Hi,

Your help is highly appreciated .

Can I ask another query, considering covering GOlden PAss and GPEX is not feasible in one day, is there any other panoramic tour that can be covered easily in single day and we can have experience of cog wheel train.

[rockoyster]

26 April 2018 at 11:28:54 #883318

Both Pilatus and Rigi feature cog-wheel railways.

You could just take Golden Pass to Interlaken and explore the Jungfrau Region for a day trip.

I’m running out of ideas now.
