What people are saying about Chapel Bridge

We love this 2 day program. We can do everything in our time and really enjoy our stay at the wonderful spa hotel. Climbing to the summit when the weather has stabilized and taking beautiful mountain walks. Dinner was very good and the dishes were excellent. We saw a sunset worthy of a movie. The next day we woke up early and crossed the lake to Lucerne. It was all charming and unhurried. Ideal for those who do not like having a guide and a very tight program. Highly recommended!

It was a nice way to get the kids (5 and 7) interested in trekking around. The puzzles were fun and some were pretty simple and they could help. They also loved the little fireworks when you got it right. Even though we have been around Luzern before, we noticed new things while doing this puzzle.

Adrian was a wonderful tour guide. We saw everything on the walking tour and he had great local insights. The boat trip was a great way to end the day and I appreciated Adrian’s direction to be sure we had good seats!

The phone led guided tour covered all key points on a very wet day. We discovered many otherwise hidden treasures.

That was an excellent way to explore this beautiful city. We had such a nice time :)
