Unfortunately, in 1798, Lucerne lost some of its importance when it lost its independence to Napoleon. For a few short years, Napoleon ruled Lucerne as the Helvetic Republic until Switzerland became a modern state, with advancements of the time, like the railway expansion, bringing modernity to the region. Ever since this expansion, the city has grown into a globetrotter's dream destination and a tourism hub.

Those planning a trip to Lucerne can expect to enjoy a glimpse into the city's past and the adventure of a lifetime. The city perfectly balances cozy, charming, adventurous, and thrilling. Prepare yourself for long, meandering walks through cobblestone streets that spill into beautiful squares and admire hand-painted building facades and magnificent ancient fountains. Not to mention, you need to make room in your travel schedule for hearty meals, chocolate tastings, and lazy lakeside visits with ice-cold beverages.

Book hotels and cabins in advance

Since Switzerland is one of the most visited European countries in the world, it's unsurprising that everything from fancy hotels to rugged cabins and cheap backpacker accommodation is booked in advance. So, to avoid missing out on staying over in any of the places found along the way or in Lucerne itself, book your stay well ahead of your intended travel time.

Try to call places by their local names

It can be easy to visit attractions and landmarks and call them by their Westernized names, but if you want to make friends and impress the locals, it is best to call places by their local names. For example, use Lac Leman (Lake Geneva) or Vierwaldstattersee (Lake Lucerne) for instant kudos. You can brush up on the local history by speaking with your Daytrip driver to learn what the locals call the places you plan on visiting during your stay.
