Bern, Switzerland, the home of 3 Bears, 2 Languages and 1 Federal Government is the perfect city to discover on foot. Please join me for an exploration of this charming UNESCO World Heritage Site. On this tour we journey through the arcades and passages of the Old Town. Along the way you'll see not one but two clock towers, the Swiss Parliament and learn why we don't use the words, capital city. We'll also stop by Dr. Einstein's old apartment and I'll tell you where you can find more of him in town. Then there are the fountains, cheese shops, churches, chocolates and bears. In addition to seeing bears all around town we'll walk over to the Bear Park to meet the locals. Exploring a city is much more fun when you know the stories, facts and legends that shaped it.
Cynthia was amazing. So knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Two hours flew by but was perfect. We did a lot of walking but you didnt feel like it bc it was so interesting. Highly recommend. I thought my two teenage boys would be board but they were so into it and enjoyed it as well.
Cynthia was a great guide providing knowledge and experience to take us to the important parts of Bern. We learned about the history of the city and the present interesting places we could explore Great to experience such knowledge about a city we had not visited previously
