A Day in Bern
3 hours was an appropriate amount of time for our one day in Bern. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable in the history of Switzerland and Bern so we learned a lot (having even read up before our tour). Willi took us to diverse locations including one’s that other guides tend to ignore. Willis was a local guide and we highly recommend him!

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.

Bern Highlights and Hidden Gems Walking Tour With A Guide
Darin_G, May 2026
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.

Highly Recommended Bern Audio Tour
The guide was superb and the english was clear. The information provided was just right, a nice mix of history, culture and even a bit on the federal government which is important as this is Bern! The app worked well for us, even under the porticoes and awnings... Highly recommended - nice voice to spend a few hours with on your vacation!

Amazing experience
We learned a lot of interesting things about Bern and its history, in a very pleasant manner. The tour is very well organized, the directions to go are clearly explained. We took our time to enjoy every stop, listening the beautiful poetic explanations. We needed more than one day to do all the 157 steps. Best for every tourist who wants to learn about the city and its highlights.
