Take a half-day escape from Lucerne and step into the heart of the Swiss Alps. With a friendly local guide, you’ll hear stories, fun facts, and little secrets about life in this breathtaking region, all while enjoying the scenery—without worrying about any logistics.
Ride the world’s first rotating cable car to Titlis Peak, where snow glistens year-round and the views stretch as far as the eye can see. Wander through a charming alpine village, admire the serene Trübsee lake, explore a 5,000-year-old glacier, cross the Titlis Cliff Walk, visit an ancient abbey, and even sample some authentic Swiss cheese along the way.

Mr. Titlis Guide Review
Rose was our guide for our group tour-turned-private tour. She was incredible!!! Instructions were clear for where to meet her, she was on time, and she was so friendly. She was so knowledgeable but also very personable, funny, and easy to talk to. We had a great time with her and would highly recommend her to do your next tour! We’d love to do one of her walking tours next time. She’s amazing!

Glad we did this
It was just and our wonderful guide Rose, She said the book 8 people max on htis tour. It was about a 50 minute train ride from Lucerne to Engleburg, Rose kept us out of the long lines behind the other tour groups. The weather was not the best, it was snowing very much at the top so we did not get to do the bridge and the were no real veiws from the top. We rreally enjoyed it though. The ise cave was cool...no COLD lol. Gloves would ahve been nice, The food at the restuaraunt was good but expensive. I reccomned the goulash. Thanks Rose!

Titlis tour
Giulia is lovely. She is warm and knowledgeable and makes sure you are having a good time and are not left behind. We had enough time at the top for lunch and to explore the mountain.
