If you have never experienced a special Carnival ambiance, go at the Lucerne Station at "Fasnacht" time. A chance to view and listen to all the "Güggeli" musical bands. More

With typical Swiss efficiency, the station has local bus and trolleybus stops just outside. Good shops (expecially the supermarket in the lower level), a wide range of restaurants (from traditional to Burger King), plenty of shops, ATMs and a tourist information office. More
