Help on Lake Lucerne Cruise

Hi fellow travelers. I wondered if anyone has some input on which Lucerne Lake Cruise is best? I am thinking about taking one of cruises that explores more of the lake since I read these are really scenic, like from a fairytale. Do you know which of these has the best scenery? Or are they both just as magical?
RT Lucerne to Alpnachstad: 2-3hrs depending on connection OR
RT Lucerne to Küssnacht: 1h45m.

If you want to see the whole lake, I'd do the one to Fluelen, but it is about 6 hours r/t.

We love the Fluelen round trip, it's very scenic. We usually have a nice meal on the boat midway or so. I like the meat and cheese platter. The boat trip is included in our Swiss Travel Passes.

Sounds lovely but we can't commit that much time for this as we only have 1.5 days in Lucerne.

We have saver day pass for our one day visit of Lucerne. We want to go Mt Rigi for half day through boat. I am thinking of how to enjoy other half day. We can continue the boat ride upto Fluelen and return by train. Other option that I am thinking to go stanserhorn. Which is the recommended iternary..
Sorry to post on this thread. As it is discussed above Fluelen, I have posted in it..
