Lucerne is a delight in every season, each offering its own unique charm. In summer, temperatures hover around 25°C—perfect for outdoor activities like hiking or swimming in the lake. Spring brings milder weather, between 10°C and 15°C, with blooming flowers and fewer tourists. Autumn dresses the city in warm, golden hues, with temperatures similar to those in spring. In winter, Lucerne transforms into a magical wonderland, with Christmas markets and snow-covered scenery adding a cozy Swiss charm. It's also the ideal season for winter sports in the surrounding areas. The choice is yours—just pick the atmosphere that appeals to you most!
No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audioguide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point: Franziskanerplatz
Parkhaus Kesselturm / Burgerstrasse 20 If you decide to park on the street, pay attention to the colour of the parking lines: · In blue zones, you’ll need a parking disc and can stay for a maximum of one hour. · In white zones, a sign will usually indicate the maximum parking duration—generally 90 minutes. · Yellow zones are private and reserved for businesses or their customers.
The easiest way to travel around Switzerland is often by train. Lucerne’s train station, located right in the city centre, gives you quick and easy access to all the tour's highlights. Lucerne uses the Swiss franc.
