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.

It was extremely disappointing. We made the journey and waited, but no tour guide ever turned up. I was travelling with two young children, which made the situation even more difficult. We also met other tourists from America who were waiting as well. I still have not received my refund, and I would not recommend this company to anyone.

This tour was great! We got a good sense of Bern’s city history and an eye opening and tasty history of chocolate production and Bern’s role in it. It was a gorgeous day to enjoy all of the sites we were taken to by our guide/owner. His knowledge and generosity made this a highlight tour among the several we took on our two week trip.

Tour 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.

Great team occasion! We booked the tour for our team and were all delighted. We experienced so many interesting aspects of the Swiss chocolate story, the tastings were great and Felix answered all our questions superbly, even made an extra stop. Absolutely worth seeing and experiencing!

The whole tour was relaxing and informative. And tasty! The presenter did a great job in translating between English and German. Would highly recommend to any chocolate connoisseurs. There was even historical references to how chocolate was brought to Switzerland (the pictures I included).
