Interesting chocolate history - Good overview of the history of chocolate in Bern. Great samples and good stops. Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly, but had his hands full giving the presentation in three languages. Only complaint was the cold, but that was not in control of the guide. He provided hot drinks and a couple of warm stops.

Everything I wanted! - I got a solo tour around Bern. My guide was very accommodating and was animated about the history which is always nice to have a guide with passion. Not to mention learning about the history of chocolate, with chocolate tastings! One shop was so good I went back on my own time to buy some for myself.

Entertaining tour with lots of chocolate samples! - My husband and I really enjoyed Felix's Chocobern tour! Felix was so enthusiastic and a great storyteller. He shared many interesting stories about the chocolate history of Bern as we toured the city. We were pleasantly surprised by how many different chocolate samples we were given throughout the tour. It was a great activity for a Monday when many attractions in Bern are closed. Would highly recommend!

Sweet story of Bern - I did love our guide, he made the walk not only entertaining, but also was a skilled story teller. We could enjoy treats on the way, go around beautiful Bern and learn more about factory industry in the region. Strongly recommending it and thank you!

average and one time only - Hello TripAdviser family. We spent a few hours with Felix the tour guide on this excursion. Felix was very friendly and knowledgeable regarding chocolate history. His English was difficult to understand and follow. The tour did what it stated in the description. We walked couple miles and stopped by points of interest that were explained. The chocolate tastings were all actually coming from the bag Felix carried and was a bit odd to us. Not sure how long the chocolate was in this bag but we did not experience typical tasting experiences that previously taken us into local businesses for the tasting experience. Overall an average experience that we both agreed was a one time experience. We personally think the tour could be a better value if the company did better planning and customer experiences.

Lacked parking advise - We were unable to go because we couldn’t find parking. There was a beach volleyball tournament going on that made parking worse. There was plenty of parking at casino parking. If we would have been directed to that parking we could have found it easily and we had plenty of time to get to the meeting place. I tried to contact the operator but couldn’t get a response till too late. I was too ok told they were by casino parking but wasn’t given the option to join them.
