Excellent trip up Mt Rigi with stunning views from the top. A couple of issues regarding tranport that I wasn't impressed with. The boat has first and second class wth SF15 per person, per trip price difference. Second class is essentially cattle class with everyone stuffed inside the boat and the nice, largely empty, upper decks for first class. Also, the trip down on cable car was 50 people, standing, crammed in like sardines. If you are stuck in the middle and not very tall, you see nothing of the view.

When we booked the trip, we were concerned that one of our party would be needing a wheelchair…and it was very difficult to determine how one gets from the end of one leg of the journey to the next online (it would be helpful if the website included a description of distances, and methods available…like the walk from the end of the gondola and then to the boat included about a quarter-mile downhill, but nowhere could we find this type of info)…luckily by the time our trip occurred our member was fully ambulatory and we had a good time. Overall, the options available at each point were great, the boat to train connection was pretty seamless, and the amenities at the Rigi Kulm were fine (although again, we had a hard time really getting an idea of what was up there from the website)… You get to see the region well, and even with a large group (12, ranging from 12 to 82) everyone enjoyed.

Trip and hike down Rigi was beautiful. Recommend lunch at the Alpina Restaurant/Hotel where we caught the gondola down. While self-guided the instructions should clearly state that you need to figure out the boat to take on your own, no one will meet and direct you. Minor flaw in the directions; we figured out just before the boat launched.
