Overview

In the heart of the holiday region “Heidiland” after Johanna Spyri’s world-famous Heidi story, tour one of the larger lakes in the Riviera of Eastern Switzerland.

We’ll start the boat tour in Weesen, in the western part of the lake and then make our way to Betlis where we’ll try and catch a glimpse of the impressive, up to 700m tall, Seerenbach waterfall.

Around noon we’ll continue our eastward journey and go ashore in the tiny village of Quinten, top spot on this lake. For lunch we warmly recommend the Seehus restaurant and cook Carlo well known for his traditional cuisine.

Back on-board stop and anchor anywhere you like so you can jump off the boat to swim or tan or just relax.

​​​​​​​If you are interested, you can experiment steering the boat, both at low and high speeds and learn about boatmanship.

Options:
- 1 hr extension
- watersports practice and rental
- transfers (Lucerne)

We have always wanted to take a boat trip on the Walensee as it is a beautiful lake surrounded by the Swiss Alps but never did so as we could not find an appropriate occasion and tour Service. As I contacted My Swiss Lake Tour I was pleasantly surprised to know that we could make it a more sporty by including a wake boarding activity in addition to exploring the lake. Eric was very attentive to detail and made us feel very comfortable around him, after a the first 30 minutes passed it felt as if we were hoping on a friends boat. In the morning we spent time exploring the Walensee, tanning and taking pictures of the Seerenbach Waterfall. At lunch time, Eric took us to the picturesque little town of Quinten, we docked right in front of a beautiful restaurant where we had lunch while we enjoyed the open views of the lake and the alps. After lunch we took a stroll through Quinten and Eric offered to take pictures of us. The second part of the day we spent the afternoon wake boarding and I have to give Eric extra points as he not only had a wake board but also a surfboard and this came in very handy as both, I and my wife, were not able to get up on the wake board as it was our first time. The added buoyancy of the surfboard made it so much easier and just made our day! Our little Daughter, who was 3 years old at the time, enjoyed the day just as we did and I can recommend this trip to anyone!

Superbe excursion en famille. Le lac est splendide et les tarifs abordables. Le service sur le bateau est vraiment très bien. Le personnel de bord est aux petits soins.
