Boats

Traveling through Switzerland is not limited to just trains, cable cars, and buses; you can also explore the country by boat. For instance, you can take a scenic boat ride across Lake Lucerne from Lucerne to Flüelen, giving you the freedom to disembark and explore the stunning surroundings at your leisure.

Another delightful option is to traverse Lake Geneva from its northern to southern shores and from the east to the west. What makes this experience even more special is that, with a valid Swiss Travel Pass, many of these boat journeys are complimentary, allowing you to enjoy Switzerland's aquatic beauty without additional cost.
