Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at Bahnhofstrasse and Altstadt Luzern. Take a break from the city and head to Mt Pilatus and Lake Zurich. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Zurich: Seebad Eich (in Eich), Lucerne (Bourbaki Panorama, Chapel Bridge, &more) and Seebad Mit Strand Am Vierwaldstattersee (in Kuessnacht am Rigi). There's still lots to do: wander the streets of Old Town, explore the world behind art at Museum Rietberg, see the interesting displays at Uhrenmuseum Beyer Zürich, and tour the pleasant surroundings at Strandbad Tiefenbrunnen.
