Pilatus Photo TourFrom: Mt. Pilatus, Switzerland
Both vintage and modern steamers travel from Lucerne to Alpnachstad; the SGV ship above (with Pilatus as a backdrop) is a steam-operated paddlewheeler from the early 1900s. Travel time is about 70 to 85 minutes, depending on the sailing. See the SGV's timetable page to plan your trip. Note: Both first- and second-class tickets are available. First class gives you access to the upper deck and may be less crowded than second class, especially on days when school groups are traveling. However, second class is perfectly comfortable, and there's plenty of deck space on the boats.
