We are taking a River Cruise from Basel next June. We fly from ATL to Zurich and are looking to spend 4 or 5 days enjoying the countryside and lakes. We are not interested in city tours, museums but prefer the lakes and mountains, maybe a gondola ride. Neither of us have been to Switzerland before and we are relatively active. Here's what I came up with so far:
Day 1 Train from Zurich to Lucerne. Boat Ride on the Lake. Relax and recover from jet lag.
Day 2 Excursion to Jungfraujoch
Day 3 Mount Pilatus
Day 4 and maybe 5 - Open to Suggestions. I would love to go to Murren but it looks like it will take a half day from Lucerne and maybe longer to get to Basel to board the cruise. Plus we will be travelling with luggage for an 8 day cruise.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
