It was a great experience however it was not disclosed that the boat to Rigi was not included. Also we were not allowed to take the cog wheel train to the top and we were asked to get off in Rigibad at the spa level because they had a group tour. We had to wait an hour to get the next train and this threw our whole schedule off. On this account we never were able to enjoy lunch and had to rush back to Basel where we started our tour and had to be back for 7pm. We went the whole day without food till our return to Basel because of the delay. So for that I would not recommend the tour unless you are prepared to be on the schedule of the cog wheel train. Of which that also was not disclosed.
It was easy, fun and worth it! Take the gondola and the train to the top of Mt Rigi to enjoy the amazing views then stop and relax at the mineral baths and spa. Views from the water of the mountains! Great day trip!
Easy to book and accepts Swiss Half Fare card. Train ride to top and hike down from the top to the spa was beautiful. Spa was great as well.
Hello shawnsH5167GA Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear that booking was easy for you and that the Swiss Half Fare Card was accepted without any issues. It’s great to know you enjoyed the train ride to the top and the beautiful hike back down to the spa — experiences like these are exactly what we hope our guests will remember. We’re also very happy that you loved the spa itself. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back again in the future. Kind regards Yvonne Guest-Service
One of the most amazing places I’ve ever been but if you could upload the map that’s available there people could plan much better in advance. We were very unsure where we were going until we got there and even still could have missed out on a lot of the mountain. However the place itself is 5/5 breathtaking and good you can do partial train partial hike so suitable for everyone
Hello Sharon G Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback. We’re thrilled to hear that you found the place absolutely breathtaking and enjoyed the flexibility of combining the train with hiking — it truly makes the experience accessible for everyone. We really appreciate your suggestion about providing the map online in advance. Clear orientation can make a big difference, and your comment highlights an important point. We’ll look into making this information easier to access so future visitors can plan their route with more confidence and make the most of their time on the mountain. We hope to welcome you back again — there’s always something new to discover up there. Kind regards Yvonne Guest-Service
The spa was super clean, very relaxing, can certainly spend 5 hours of Pure peace! My husband had a massage that he really appreciated! We would recommend! Our only recommendation would be to give a little more info on how to get at the location. The meeting point was not a meeting point is was just to get to the spa…very simple when you know that…this part was a bit confusing for us…
Boat ride from Lucerne easiest way to get there. Once there spa has all the features you like. Beautiful views and staff were very friendly.
