Would be a great tour if you could hear the guide

Jodi_M, Oct 2026
Could say that we were somewhat disappointed with this tour having done many other tours through via tour expected it to be way better. Guide seemed very knowledgeable about the sights the problem was we couldn’t hear her. She handed out sound headphones only to have 3/4 of them not be working so I felt like the only time she really spoke that we could hear her was when we stopped for the different activities, otherwise we were just following her, not knowing what we were looking at the whole way disappointed

Beautiful city including...

Beautiful city including the Town Hall. Expect a ride on public transportation to get to the chocolate factory. Cheese and chocolate presentation was very informative by the owner and chocolate was delicious.

Coco review

Coco did a fantastic job. Great guide. Very knowledgeable. After traveling through the areas of Basel including riverfront spots, we finished with chocolate and cheese creations with a small chocolatier.

The tour of the city was...

The tour of the city was pretty cursory, but the information about chocolate making at the end was really interesting. I learned a lot about how the origin of the cocoa beans changes the resulting chocolate. I would recommend the tour for people looking to learn about chocolate making, but less so for people mostly interested in the city.

Unprofessional

They cancel the tour while we were waiting at the meeting point!!! I connected with 3 other people who were also waiting and then we all got a cancellation message. Still waiting to hear back about my refund!!! Totally unprofessional.

Very clever

Loved the cheese and chocolate demonstration. Learned so much about cheese production and the different cows who produce the milk to make the cheese.

Thank you Selma.

Had a wonderful time. Selma is so personable and knowledgeable of the area. The places she took us were extremely interesting.

I would like a refund

I would like a refund. I booked a walking tour with cheese and chocolate. I only got the chocolate tour and not the cheese tour in Basel.
