Best Tour of the History of Chocolate in Bern!
This chocolate tour was fantastic! Even though it was extremely hot, we were still able to enjoy delicious chocolate and walk the beautiful city of Bern. Felix was a great tour guide. He was super knowledgeable and was able to keep the chocolate from melting all day. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone who wants to enjoy a ton of chocolate in the place where it was perfected. It was a great way to learn about the history of Bern.

Great tour in Bern
Small group, very personal service, great simple tour outside Bern where you visit several spots. Our tour guide Steve was excellent. He provided us with great information and conversation and we learned a lot about Switzerland. He made a great suggestion for lunch, gave us free time to explore on our own, and offered to take pictures of us at the tour stops. Highly recommend this tour and Steve as a guide.

Unlike our Zurich tour,...
Unlike our Zurich tour, our Bern tour was a home run! Early on we were contacted by the tour company to find out just what we did and didn't want to do/see. Also since we were coming to Bern via train from Zurich, we were able to arrange our "pick up" at a coffee shop just outside the train station.
We traded emails a few times with James, our tour guide, including one where he recommended a restaurant with a great view for lunch after our tour. We made the reservation and it was a great choice.
James was very friendly and knowledgeable about Bern, it's history, culture, neighborhoods and we saw the things that were of interest to us. He even arranged the tour so that we could see Bern's version of the famous Prague clock tower striking noon, which was fun. He had lots of anecdotal stories, was organized, yet flexible and very attentive. We had a very good time and really enjoyed the tour and our time with him.

Great sites
Our group totaled three couples. We booked separately, but didn't realize that was going to put us in different groups. It was a little bit of a mess up at first, but the two guides handled it great. Either way, don't book your group separate from each other. That said, the trip was amazing, and our guide, Elmo, was fantastic. He started by taking us to a map showing the evolution of Bern over the last couple centuries, and showed us breathtaking cathedrals and banking sites. We recommend this tour. It was also an easy train ride from Lousanne, but it was $36 each way per person.

Franca Lara was an outstanding guide. We booked a last-minute walking tour of Bern and, although the city is small, the two hours flew by—we easily could have stayed with her for three. She was knowledgeable, fun, and great at keeping our entire family engaged the whole time. Five stars for Franca.
A quick note on Viator: after we booked and paid, we were contacted and asked if we could change our reserved time/date. When you choose a specific slot, it’s usually because your schedule is tight, so that was frustrating. Thankfully, the tour itself was fantastic. Viator could improve the booking follow-up, but Franca’s guiding was truly excellent.

Wow! Doryan was an absolute treasure of a guide. He's a local, and knows all the hidden secret beauties Colmar has to offer. He also has a wealth of historical knowledge of the area, and was a delight to converse with. He tailored the tour to our interests (we are both architects), and we had a wonderful time.
Thanks so much, Doryan!

Bern walking tour
Our guide was wonderful! She went into a lot of detail. We had 12 people in the group and she managed to keep track of all. She’s from Mexico and has only lived here 4 years so it was amazing what details she provided. Unfortunately my husband and I can’t remember her name.
