The self guided tour was...

2.00The self guided tour was pretty boring unfortunately. The man’s voice was boring and he spent far too much time talking about stained glass windows and other fairly dull things. It needs to be shorter and more engaging. No one needs 5 minutes audio on a window!
Gentle walking tour through Bern old town

5.00This is a gentle tour at your own pace, as you can pause the dialogue at any time, go for a coffee and start off again where you left off

3.00Good and really detail oriented. A little too long in our opinion, we only got to the 40th point out of the 150 stops. Also, it gives the impression that it is made by AI, so the voice gets a little boring after an hour.
What a fantastic and very informative tour

5.00What a fantastic and very informative tour. Ok, so you have to do a lot of walking but you always stop off for a coffee when you need to, as I did. This doesn’t cover a big area and you’ll find yourself revisiting places but from a different angle but it’s a great introduction into Berns history and the thing I loved the most is most of the places on the tour you would normally walk straight past. It’s all spoken very clearly and the directions given are accompanied with photographs so you know exactly where you should be. I had a problem at first accessing the walk but after asking for help got an answer back within minutes and needed no further assistance. A great tour!
Not very tourist friendly

1.00Not very user friendly. I couldn’t locate the map and the link took me to a 105 pages document. I ended up paying more money to buy a different self guide walking tours
