Review of the Zurich to Bern day trip with Kambly biscuits, Emmental cheese, scenic Swiss countryside, guided Old Town walk, and practical tips.
“Monica, our guide, is very knowledgeable about the regions we passed on the tour, including their history. I learned a lot about Switzerland in such a short time. Now , about the tour package: It's great seeing the country side scenery coupled with Monica's narratives. Old Town Bern looked impressive from the bridge with the rooftops and steeples and river. But the arcades at ground level don't look old at all. Whoever rebuilt these arcades did not fully restore the quaint charm of old architecture. But this is why I'm giving this tour only 2 stars: The Kambly biscuit tour was a disappointment. A little animatronics and video and that…”

“This was a great way to experience the food scene of Zürich, and taste all the delicacies that the city/country has to offer. Toni was super lovely and informative and gave us so many little tidbits about the Switzerland that helped us gain a full picture of what we were eating. Highlight was definitely Chäs Chäller (the cheese store), we could’ve stayed there and eaten cheese for days (so glad I bought some to take home)! Thanks again, Toni for a wonderful tour!”

Explore Zurich on a small-group chocolate walk with a local, tasting Swiss sweets, hearing city stories, and getting café tips.
“This tour is a total rip off. You do not do what is advertised. All we did was walk around Zürich and go to four chocolate stores and he would buy us candy. We didn’t learn anything about Zürich. Other than the fact that it was a nice day to go swimming. It was a huge waste of money. The guide was very pleasant, but clearly hadn’t been trained And was not a professional guide.”
Taste eight Swiss craft beers and eight pralines across Zurich’s Kreis 4 and 5, with local stories and expert pairings in a small group.
“If you enjoy craft beer and chocolate you will love this tour!! Our guide Sandro was exceptional! His knowledge of beer and the history was on the expert level. He was able to pair the beers with the chocolate such that regardless how you felt about the type of beer you were about to taste you enjoyed it due to the pairing. He took us through some unique beer stops that we would have never known about. We were introduced to a premier local chocolate which was the best surprise. Husbands and wives both loved it!”
See Zurich from Uetliberg to Langstrasse, cruise Lake Zurich, enjoy a Swiss picnic and chocolate tasting on a private 7-hour tour.
“We are very thankful for Marc he was very warm hearted and calm and gave us a good introduction to Zurich. We especially enjoyed the picnic at the Lindenhof Hill, enjoying organic food and Swiss Raclette made by him especially for us. He introduced us to the best luxury chocolate which we would never learn about had we not taken the tour. We learned alot in this tour. Marc gave us confidence to go around on our own and even gave us pointers for the rest of our vacation.”
Taste eight or more craft beers across Zurich districts 4 and 5 with an expert guide on this intimate three-hour walking tour.
“Sandro, our tour guide, was so much fun! We went to several different bars throughout Zurich, had at least 10 beers and genuinely learned so much about each one! We came to Switzerland eager to learn about its history, and I honestly learned so much about beer history. It’s a small group tour so you definitely get personalized attention to all of your questions, I would definitely recommend and book again for my family! Thank you Sandro!!!”
