Lucerne Folklore Tour

Zurich, Switzerland

This excursion takes you to the picturesque city of Lucerne. After a short orientation tour of the city you will proceed to a typical Old Town restaurant where traditional Swiss dishes will be served. You will start with a cheese Fondue, followed by a hearty Bratwurst, which is a veal sausage, and Roesti-potatoes.

A delicious dessert is served later. During lunch you will be entertained with yodeling, singing, Alphorn-blowing and flag-throwing - Swiss Folklore at its best. The meal and program lasts about two hours. The afternoon is yours for sightseeing and shopping before the bus will pick you up to return to Zurich.

This is one I would take a pass on. The Folklore show was entertaining but that's all the trip is good for. There was no tour of the city before hand, as we were just dropped off due to the fact the bus had folks on it that were going to Titilus Mountain. Food was adequate, show at times bizarre, and to have to hang around for four hours after the show was a total waste of time. Time that could have been used for other sightseeing events. If you must see Lucerne, do a 1/2 day trip, not a full day.

The show was nice until the fake cow came out. Then they did the chicken dance, or whatever it is called. I thought it went downhill from there, but the rest was really nice. I liked the alpenhorns, the singing saw, and the broom dance. The flag throwing was nice also. Just be prepared that they may call you up to participate.

We were traveling with another couple and had a really great day in Lucerne. The city was beautiful and we had the whole afternoon to explore after the folk show.

My granddaughter and I had just completed a really super tour and this experience left me a bit col". However, I thoroughly enjoyed being in Lucerne because it was the first visit since I'd been there with my daughter 29 years ago! It hasn't changed much!

Enjoyed the bus trip to Lucerne. The scenery is spectacular and is definitely worth it. Not sure about the folklore lunch - the food was adequate, tasty and served promptly, but there are numerous similar restaurants nearby where I would expect that competition ensures a similar quality. The folklore show was at times quite corny. We had about 3 hours in Lucerne afterwards for exploring alone. I do consider this trip to be good value for the money paid and the convenience of a full day's outing.
