Normally I'm very good about the "details":) We went on the St. Peter's Line - it is the only one that you can book without a visa. It was very inexpensive too (of course we did sleep in a cabin without windows:)). Let me know if you want to get togeher for a drink - it would be nice to talk "American" with someone:) -MandyMandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09607028406841116009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4264838445055170499.post-17250807031243017942010-09-06T10:40:17.025-04:002010-09-06T10:40:17.025-04:00Oh, wow!

S...Hi Amanda - you aren't bothering me at all! Sorry it took a while to respond - we were in transit:)<br /><br />This hike would be awesome to do with your Mom! We just took the normal boat back (it took about an hour) and cost 9 CHF - I just can't remember if that price was for both my husband and I or just one of us though:) Just so you know - we got the Swiss Day pass (which was on "sale" for 45CHF) then it was 9 CHF to take the funicular one way to Monte San Salvatore then the boat for 9 CHF back to Lugano - I think that was everything.<br /><br />Oh yeah - and when you get to Corona the signs point you in two different directions - take the one up the hill (next to the grotto) - it takes you threw the botanical gardens the other path is the street! I hope that helps!Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09607028406841116009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4264838445055170499.post-27175805062810546032010-05-02T03:05:51.786-04:002010-05-02T03:05:51.786-04:00Sorry to bother you...

I ask because looking on the website, the tour boats are double the cost of regular boats and we'd just like to get from point A to B...
