Perfect city tour - Our guide, Johnas, met us and led us on a fantastic tour of Bern. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions and shared so many fascinating stories of the city. I had no idea of the incredible history of the city - we’re looking forward to spending more time in Bern.

Not worth the money. No entry included into any of the attractions. - The tour does *not* include entry into any of the attractions except the church (which you can enter on your own for free anyway). Given that they charge over $80 a head this was a big disappointment for us. The description of the tour was very misleading because after each attraction It also says "free admission ticket" - so it looked like entry was included in the price.
You can do this tour on your own by reading some info online and using Google maps to go from one attraction to another. No need to pay $80 a head for a walking tour that does not give you entry into the Einstein house or the Parliament building.
On another note, we waited on time at the point of meeting, and there was no one there holding a sign or anything like that. So we started walking on our own and the guide caught up with us later. The least you can do is have a big prominent sign to make things easier.
