Mt Titlis Glacier Paradise Tour from Zurich With Lucerne
Description
This is an adventure excursion to the highest vantage point in central Switzerland! A pleasant ride on a comfortable deluxe motor coach takes us to the mountain resort of Engelberg in central Switzerland, where we board the aerial cableway for a 40 minute journey from the green valley to the high alpine glacier region at 3020 m/10000 ft. Enjoy the ride in the world’s ever first revolving gondola the 'Titlis Rotair' allowing 360 degrees view on a single trip. (This altitude guarantees snow the whole year round.) During the 2 hours at the summit of Mount Titlis, enjoy the four spectacular attractions included (all weather dependent), such as: - Glacier Grotto (touch the ice of the Glacier) - Titlis Cliff Walk (Europe's highest suspension bridge) - Fun Lift (snow tubing in the Glacier Park May-Sep) - Ice Flyer (chairlift that offers view into deep glacier crevasses) Several restaurants are at your disposal.

Excellent trip and Thomas was an excellent, informative guide! Despite all of the construction, the mountain did not disappoint!
The bus trip went well, everything was punctual, however the guide who accompanied us barely spoke English; it was incomprehensible. He also seemed like he had never been to that place before because he appeared completely lost, also he was always rushing the whole group. At one point, he even left part of the group behind to run and catch a cable car alone to get good photos. We were quite dissatisfied with the overall lack of professionalism.
The unusual weather during our trip was unfortunate. We were so excited to experience the activities on the top of like the Ice Cave, RotAir, & the Hanging Bridge walk. The top section, where all these attractions are, were closed that day because of severe weather condition.. Bomber! Nobody’s fault. Can’t fight nature. We still enjoyed the fenicular and the cable car rides to the middle level, where we enjoyed the restaurant and the heavy snowfall.
This was AMAZING!!! From our tour guide (Micheal), our transport and the overall tour!!! Micheal made this experience top notch!!!
Saw the most amazing sights, had the best tour guide ever!!! Shoutout to Carsten!!!! He was extremely knowledgeable and I recommend going on this tour because it’s a lot more personalised than the huge tour groups
Absolutely ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! Our guide, Carsten , was amazing — incredibly knowledgeable, very helpful, and always friendly and polite. He truly made the experience special. The trip itself was absolutely unforgettable, with plenty of time to explore and really take it all in. We never felt rushed, especially at Mount Titlis , where the views were simply gorgeous. Ending the day in Lucerne in the evening was the perfect touch, with beautiful sights and a relaxed atmosphere. An overall fantastic experience from start to finish — highly recommend!
This was an amazing experience. It was snowing, so we weren’t sure what we were going to be able to do. Although a few things were closed, our tour guide made it the best day ever for us. We agreed that this was one of our favorite days on our entire trip to Europe. We were very impressed with the kindness, respect, fun attitude, and overall positive experience we had. There were surprises along the way, and it was absolutely stunning outside. Because of the snow, our tour bus was one of the only ones on the mountain, creating a magical experience for us. Despite the snow, we still had a really fun day. Our tour guide also based the day off of our wants and needs, so it never felt like we were just sitting around for nothing.
They offer many points of visit and there is not enough time to fulfill them and you miss great experiences that could have been enjoyed
Tour group was great, driver Micheal was great full of history. Had a ball snow tubing . Lunch and weather were also nice temp in the 30's
We went with high expectations considering the cost per ticket and the itinerary ( 4 adult tickets) . It was very disappointing, short 2hr drive from Zurich to Engelburg , the peak was shut due to upcoming storm though it was a very sunny day. So we couldn't ride the rotair to the summit , means no bridge walk, no Ice flyer , no glacier cave , no snowtubbing. For my teens it was quiet boring just looking at the views at the middle level . Not worth our money at all. They just refunded 30 bucks per ticket in Francs though we paid online in pounds. We were going back to UK first thing in the morning , so francs wasn't helpful ! They rushed us to get back to Lurcene and left us there for 2 hours to roam around with nothing to do. We wanted an active day out at Mt Titilus instead we got some views for pictures and roamed around aimlessly in Lurcerne. Avoid Mt Titlus this time of the year! weather is unpredictable and the tour company compensate you with just few pennies and dump you at a place just to show you they have shown you something. When I asked the tour company( Meier Tours- Grayline sightseeing) to refund me online in pounds since I paid online and why they left us in Lurcene for more hours instead of giving more time at Engelburg for snow experience , he was very rude to me and asked 'why did you come here on Christmas day ofcourse there is nothing to do in Lurcene ' All in all a very disappointing and not value for money at all!
