Embark on an scenic journey starting from Lucerne boat pier 1, just across from the bustling Lucerne train station. Departure times for this self-guided tour are as follows: 09:12, 10:12, 12:00, 14:12, and 15:12 of the cruise company, SGV. Upon arriving at Vitznau by boat, seamlessly transition to the connecting train that will whisk you to the summit of majestic Mount Rigi. Take a leisurely stroll, approximately 35 minutes, or opt for the hourly train descent to Rigi Kaltbad. At this place, where relaxation knows no bounds, no reservations or time constraints are required.

From the tranquil Kaltbad, set your journey back by catching the sustainable cogwheel train return to Vitznau at 15:15, 16:15, or 17:15 to connect with the boat ride back to Lucerne. Alternatively, take the cable car at 16:10, 16:40, 17:10, or 17:40, from Kaltbad bound for Weggis. Should inclement weather or maintenance caused the closure of the cable car, the train to Vitznau stands ready as an alternative.

It was a great time starting with the cogwheel ride to the spa. The spa was fantastic and the views are unbelievable.

It was great to be able to navigate the tour yourself. The top had stunning views. The spa was very nice. Boat ride both ways uneventful.
Worth the price

The itinerary was easy to follow and the trip was fantastic. Hiking trails were clearly marked and suitable for all ages. Best is ended the trip with a magnificent view at the mineral spa.

This was an outstanding day. Everything was easy to figure out, plenty of time for each portion of the tour and a great mix of activities. The walk to the spa took a full hour but the snow was deep and we took our time. Beautiful scenery!!!

The ride up on the cogwheel railroad and then the hike down to the spa from the top of Mt. Rigi...just a word of caution...the hike downhill is difficult especially when you might have knee or hip problems...it takes about 60 minutes with no stops. Also, the cable car ride down to Weggis is great but make sure at the bottom near Lake Lucerne that you go to the correct boat dock which is to your right so you get the correct boat back to the city!!

Did this with a group of 6. Everyone had a good time. The views are amazing. Was easy to find your way. Walking routes on Mt Rigi are well marked. You can take different ways down. Some of us wanted to walk more than others.
The bath are worth checking out. A couple hours is lots of time in them.

The incredible views of precipitous snow capped mountains, hills dotted with neat houses and the mirror-like lakes. These painted memories that will last as some of our favourite views that we have ever seen. It was so special that it was really hard to take in. We both kept saying that we had to pinch ourselves!
This tour was remarkable because we set the place. No ear pieces and demands to keep up. Just the two of us drinking in unforgettable signs. The combination of cruising along the lake, slipping up steep slopes in the cog train then the adrenaline rush of the precipitous cable car back to the lake were all so different and each so worthwhile. All of this at our own pace and complemented by a delicious lunch in the sunshine on the shores of Lake Lucerne. Incredible!

The experience was very easy as far as getting to where we needed to be. It was great to not have a schedule - we could do this at our own pace. The cable car experience from Kaltbad to Weggis was very very crowded - packed in like sardines so if you’re last to get on (like us) you have absolutely no view except your neighbor’s armpit. 🫤 That could have been done much better in my opinion. Otherwise the views were breathtaking from the top and lake is very beautiful from the boat.
