Chocolate tour in Bern with chocolate tasting
Overview

2 hours
Mobile ticket
After registration, the meeting point is at the Käfigturm. Then you walk through the old town. On the way, you can enjoy Bern's chocolate history. You will be served well-known chocolates. At the shop of a small chocolatier, you will also receive a box with a selection of award-winning chocolates.
Conching was developed in Bern and has become the standard method for making chocolate worldwide. This is Bern's most important chocolate history, but at the same time it is also the least known. By being shown the conching technique, you will learn the true story of today's chocolate (melted chocolate).
At the end, you will have seen the old town of Bern from a sweet perspective. Each guest must then decide for themselves whether Bern was a chocolate capital or whether the claim is just marketing.

4.00Tour was as described, but based off previous fod tours I was expecting to taste chocolate inside the shops. We started with a few pre-packaged chocolates and then moved to an chocolate shop where we had ice cream and received chocolates from that store. Overall more chocolate than I could eat in one tour.
Plenty of chocolate on this tour

4.00There was plenty of chocolate during the tour that Felix carries with him so you don't go into chocolate shops but that isn't really an issue. He shares a great deal of history on the development of the chocolate industry since its inception in the 1700's. It is a good tour but stay close to Felix as his accent is quite strong so you don't miss anything.

5.00A very interesting experience, where you will taste different chocolates, know the history and curious facts about the preparation of chocolate. Wearing comfortable clothes and shoes as you walk through the city and in summer can be hot.
