We have just come back from a brilliant trip to Switzerland! The weather was awesome throughout our trip. We spent most of the time in Lucerne, where we stayed at the Hotel Drei Koenig. On our first day we decided to wander around Lucerne’s Old Town and see as much of it as possible. We ended up quite dreadfully tired and in the evening we just went back to the hotel and simply crashed.

We went on a trip to Mount Titlis the next day. Mount Titlis is one of the highest mountains in Switzerland, at 10,000 feet. I must admit to feeling quite terrified at that height. I was feeling quite disorientated.

The next day we made a long hiking trip up Mount Rigi-Kulm. To get to the start of the hiking point, you have to take a cruise along the river, then a trip up the mountains by train, before you get to your starting point. This is the day of our trip which I think we enjoyed the most.

We spent the rest of the trip in and around Lucerne and on the last day we made a day trip to Zurich. This allowed us to catch our flight straight from Zurich Airport back to London. All in all, a wonderful and highly recommended to anyone interested :-)
