Highlights
The old town of Bern is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Legend states that Duke Berchthold of Zahringen named the city after the first animal he killed during a hunting expedition: it was a Bear!
Here you will enjoy a medieval air of the city with its Renaissance fountains, narrow streets and historic towers... and not only!
During our tour we will:
taste the best, according to the version of the last few years, the country's chocolate. And it's not about Toblerone, who, by the way, is also from Bern.
We will see a very unusual restaurant, it is better to book a table in it in advance, where the French invaders died drowning in wine.
Find out where Bernese gin is produced (you can learn how to cook it, for extra money, by prior arrangement)
take a picture at three monuments to Einstein.
We will visit a perfume studio where you can make your perfect perfume (for extra money, by prior arrangement).

15 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedAlbert Einstein lived in Bern from 1903 to 1905 and developed his Theory of Relativity in this house. Albert Einstein rented this flat from 1903 to 1905 and lived there with his wife Mileva and son Hans Albert. They are some voices that Mileva and Albert have worked on the theory of relativity together, but her name was not on the work, nevertheless he gave the Nobel Prize in full to his then ex-wife.Parliament Building
15 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedBern was chosen as the Federal Capital of Switzerland in 1848 thanks to its central location between the German- and French-speaking parts of the country. The parliament building was completed in 1902. In the central hall, under the cupola between the two assembly rooms, there are numerous symbolic depictions of Swiss history. Curiosity. During the summer, you can see the 26 water fountains in Parliament Square represent the 26 cantons of Switzerland.Kindlifresserbrunnen
10 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedOne of the Bernese fountains depicts an ogre devouring defenceless, half-naked children.Its Kindlifresserbrunnen. There are various theories about the significance of this fountain, the most plausible of which is that the fountain was built for an educational purpose and that the monster was meant to scare little children. The most popular theories are three. And the most truthful one is even more horrific than the scarecrow for children.Kafigturm
15 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedKäfigturm as well as the clock tower were built at different times as Bern's fortification system. In the past Käfigturm was where criminals were interrogated and locked up! Bernese, as befits the Swiss, lovers of order, have documented and preserved in the so-called "Tower Books" information about murders, thefts and other crimes, as well as interrogations, confessions and sentences. Have you ever been to the Musée Dorcet in Paris? Perhaps the painting "The Tin Man" by the Swiss artist Hodler caught your eye. They say he was born in this tower.Kornhausbrucke
