5 Flüelen. Flüelen is the interchange point of the Gotthard Panorama Express – from boat to panorama train. As early as 1837, the first steam vessels, loaded with all sorts of merchandise, navigated across the lake to Flüelen. Up until the opening of the railway station, these goods were reloaded to oxcarts, wagons, mules and horses. Today, it is mainly Rudenz Castle from the 13th century and the «Old Church» built in 1664 that shape the townscape. 6 Wassen Church. 7 Gotthard Tunnel.

We enjoyed this train a lot and highly recommend it to anyone.» Rated on 16 September 2019 by «462chile». «Switzerland is a beautiful country, and traveling by train is an excellent way to experience that beauty. On top of that, this is a historic ride which shows off what was quite a feat of engineer 150 (!) years ago. The service was excellent, the views wonderful, and the engineering inspiring. If you like train travel, this is a great trip to make!» Rated on 21 August 2019 by «jonathancoveney». «Traveled the train from Lugano and then took a boat to Lucerne when the train ended. The train was very comfortable. Our tour guide for our train car was excellent keeping us informed of all the key points along the way. The boat was immediately accessible when exiting the train. It was a paddle steamer and we sat outside. Food and drink were available for purchase. It was a nice day and beautiful ride.» Rated on 21 July 2019 by «ml5024».
