Brett, did anyone ever tell you that you look like Jim Courier, the tennis player?
Lol I agree he does
Hello Jana and Bret...thanks for all.your very helpfull and entertaining videos. We plan to visit Switzerland late November this year. We hope you can make a video of things to do and places to visit in November.
Thanks and looking forward to our trip.
So excited to be finally able to use all your tips on my honeymoon in 2 weeks!!!
Any suggestions on riding the Golden pass line to Montreux, using the Berner Oberland pass? Reserve to Saanen and then buy 1/2 fair for last leg? Stop in Saanen for lunch?
Also "travelling without a suitcase" does sound great lol Bret 😂
Great presentation about Lucerne. Greetings from Switzerland.
Thanks for the encouragement!
Thank you guys
You're welcome!
Wow ! Wonderful video .
I am planning to travel to Lucerne, swissland around June next year. The great videos and useful information you made help me make travel plans. I'll look forward to your wonderful videos ! 😊🎉
We’re happy to help, and hope our resources can help you plan your entire Swiss vacation next summer! 🙂
@@AplinsintheAlps Thank you again ...
Thanks for all your videos, very informative. Quick question can we do lucerne and stoos in one day? Thank you.
Just got back from Switzerland. Lausanne/St- Suplice, Chillon Castle, Lac Leman, Glacier 3000, Chocolate Factory.
Sounds like you had a great trip!
Went there last year in summer and going back again end of this month or first week of October if my friend can get the VISA. I spend two days in Lucerene. My favorite was the walk down from Mount Rigi.
That’s awesome that you enjoyed Lucerne so much last year that you’re coming back again this year! 🥰
Hello my friend 🙋🤝🙋🇨🇭
Very Very good 👍💓👍
Tank you for charging
i was fortunate enough to be able to visit Lucerne .. i miss it a lot and hope can go back to this beautifuL city one day ..
.. greetings from 🇮🇩 Indonesia
Hey! Lucerne is such a beautiful city and I'm so glad you got to visit it. We hope you can come back here soon😊
@@AplinsintheAlps … thank you 🙏🏻 so much ..
Love the ideas here - we will definitely have to stop in Lucerne!
I’m a bit of a “church-crawler” and love visiting historic churches and they are often free too! :)
As a Swiss I’ d absolutely recommend visiting Lucerne’s „Jesuitenkirche“, absolutely worth it (and free of charge) 😊
@@markusf58 - thank you :)
Thank you for all the informative in all videos about switzerland. It is really helpful. I've decided to visit lucerne and Zurich in my trip to switzerland.
Is it more cheaper to buy train ticket from lucerne to Zurich in the station or in SBB app?
Regarding
So glad our videos have been helpful and that you've landed on where exactly you'd like to visit! The train tickets will cost the same at the station or on the SBB app. We typically recommend buying through the app so you don't have to keep up with a paper ticket but if you have questions about which tickets you need to buy, the workers at the train stations are very helpful!
Are there any kayak rentals in Lucerne? Thank you for all your amazing videos!
We haven't done it before, but you definitely can! Here's some info: www.weggis-vitznau.ch/en/see-do/excursions/on-by-the-water/kayaking/
We are spending 5 days in Zurich and plan a day trip to Lucerne. We will be there in late December, the week before Christmas. I've wanted to see Switzerland for over 50 years. We live in Seattle.
Have a great trip 😊
My wife and I are planning to spend 2 weeks in switzerland as 10 years anniversary celebrarion, and you guys are truly helping us tremendously to give us an idea on what to expect. Congratulations ! I truly believe you will become more and more popular. By the way, I was about to buy the hotelcard but turns out is only valid for specific countries in Europe. Not Mexico where we live 😢 is this accurate or any other options ? Thank you !
Unfortunately we've heard that it's not always available in all countries. Thank you so much for your encouragement, and we hope you find our other videos useful!
Wow. Great tips Jana and Brett ! Thanks. We visiting in just a fews days’ time. This would be a great help to spend less and enjoy more of the magnificent Lucern.
Can I just find out when was this video taken ? Thou it was uploaded just days before. Thanks 😊 looking forward to more videos.
We hope you enjoy Lucerne! This was filmed in August 2023, so just last month!
What do you mean by "it's def" at 1:26 ?
Oh, Brett said “it’s death” - he was referring to the theme of the triangular paintings on the bridge!
Hi, do you recomend rent a car for a family off 4 ? We lihe to go to every place ... tank you , your videos are wonderfull
It really depends on what you're doing and where you'll be traveling. Some of the villages are car free and most of the time you cannot use a car to get up into the mountains.
We will go to zurich , lucerne and interlaken for 5 days. Thanks
If you only stick to those cities/villages, then you can go everywhere by car. But train travel is so easy and scenic, and allows you to enjoy the journey without worrying about navigation, traffic, and parking. But it's really up to you!!
visitor card?
what that?thks! :)
Hi there! We talk more about the visitor card in this video, so be sure to check it out if you haven't already! th-cam.com/video/B5W8-TVWq1Y/w-d-xo.html
Are there jobs for Americans there?
In our experience, it’s very difficult to get a job and visa here as an American unless you work for a larger company. It was easier for us to move here because we have Italian citizenship.
