Enjoy the fountains and incredible views - The starting point is a bit of an uphill hike but that makes the start of the walk all downhill. The viewpoint from the start is amazing. Our guide was from Mexico but knew the details and facts about the city, canton, and Switzerland. The walk is through the old town and you'll discover some views you might not find on your own. I learned more about Switzerland than I would have imagined. Bring a water bottle to fill at one of the many fountains. This is a great opportunity to get up to speed on Bern quickly.

Wonderful Two-Hour Walking Tour - Karina was a fantastic tour guide! Professional, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable—she made our experience in Bern a memorable one and we learned a lot from her during our two-hour tour. The itinerary provided us with a great overview of the Old Town and stops along the way helped bring the history to life. I can’t recommend booking a tour with her enough—thank you, Karina!

Awesome Guided Overview! - What a wonderful time with Karina touring Bern! From the get go this was easy — Karina messaged us to make sure we knew exactly where to meet her. She made herself accessible throughout the tour to ask recommendations and questions, which was great. The highlights for us were learning about the fountains throughout Bern, and also the Zytglogge. Karina walked us through each element of the clock, which made watching it go off even more interesting. Definitely recommend this tour! Also pro tip: Go to the meeting spot early and explore the top of the hill — we were too zonked to climb it again when the tour was through!
