4.00The cliff walk and Ice flyer was fun and exciting. The queue/ stand to take funicular, cable car and gondola was bad experiences - no seat and bathroom (with no entry sign) for the almost 1 hour wait. It will not be easy for senior visitors. As for the tour operator, I suggest a more prominent signboard to be displayed or request the tour guide to bring along a flag. We have problem to search for the correct tour group at the meeting point. After coming down from Mount Titlis, we have difficulty in looking for our bus at the parking areas too (there were more than 20 buses waiting for their guests). Our tour guide cannot be seen anywhere (later we learnt that she was stuck at Mt Titlis) ! We were fearful of being left out at foreign land !
The guides organised...

3.00The guides organised everyone on the bus, but were not to be seen at Mt Titlis for information or guidance. However we enjoyed Titlis.
An Amazing Experience!

5.00Titlis was one of the four mountain journeys we did on our recent trip to Lucerne. Jean/Kusnudum (spelling?) were our guides. They did a good job herding all of us between the journey up/down. All of the components (Cliff Walk, the Glacier Cave, and the Ice Flyer as well as the gondola itself) are amazing; but they are sequential. If you want to do the Ice Flyer, you need to brave the Cliff Walk (which is a lot easier when people aren't swaying the bridge). I'm glad I packed extra Xanax for my acrophobia...
Excellant day out.
