Pilatus (6,994 ft)… savor an elegant 3-course kunch on board an historic paddle steamer which plies the blue waters of Lake Lucerne, before continuing across the St. Gotthard mountain range to Lugano…spend your last evening getting to know Lugano’s mild Mediterranean climate, Italian influence, and lush vegetation…in the morning, board the train to Zurich for your flight home, or follow your heart’s temptation and head to Italy!
