The place is incredible, the view is breathtaking and Rainer is the best person and host I've ever met, always willing to listen, help and make everyone's life easier. The work is simple, there's no secret, in a few hours you can do everything and there's plenty of time to explore Lucerne. Without a doubt, the best volunteering ever! I had a perfect time there, one month wasn't enough, I already miss it!
