Taste Gruyère cheese and Cailler chocolate, explore a medieval village, and enjoy Swiss scenery on a small-group day trip from Bern.
“My mother and I met Christoph at the train station in the morning and headed out for our day. He guided us easily through the efficient Swiss transportation system first to Gruyere with its cheese factory and lovely town and then on to Maison Callier for a very thorough tour of the chocolate factory. All the while, Christoph provided information about the area and answered our many questions of life in Switzerland. We had good conversations, and he was very attentive and helpful with my 80-year-old mother. It was a very entertaining and educational day.”
Taste Gruyère cheese, explore a medieval castle, and visit Maison Cailler on a small-group day trip from Bern.
“Amazing day trip to Gruyère! Mike shared lots of history and fun facts throughout the day. Everything was well planned out with tours and allowed for independent time to explore. He took us to great scenic spots and really tailored the day to the 3 of us who happened to be on the tour that day. Highly recommend this for a fun day of touring Gruyère.”
