Route: Lucerne - Lake Lucerne - Flüelen - St. Gotthard - Bellinzona - Lugano or Locarno

The Wilhelm Tell Express connects two of the prettiest parts of Switzerland: Central Switzerland and the Italianate Ticino. New: two daily connections from Lucerne to either Locarno or Lugano or vice-versa.

Enjoy an excellent meal while tuckering along the impressive coastline of Lake Lucerne on a first class vintage paddle steamer. Once the boat has reached Flüelen, the crew will say good-bye. Step off the boat and onto the comfort of a first-class panorama train that will whisk you via the spectacular Gotthard route to the Ticino, where Italian is spoken. This package contains reserved seats on boat and train, a hot or cold dish on the boat, an attractive souvenir and a travel documentation.

The Wilhelm Tell Express runs twice a day from May 1 - October 22, 2006. The obligatory surcharge to a valid ticket or pass in 1st class is CHF 38.- (includes seat reservations and lunch).
