Country: Switzerland
Duration:
02:30 hours
Description
First you get to know Bern's sweet side in the Old Town. This is followed by a liquor/schnapps tasting at the Matte distillery, all in the spirit of Bernese chocolate.
Our meeting point is at the Kaefigturm (Prison Tower) on Baerenplatz (Bear’s Square). From there, you will explore the Old Town under the sign of the Bernese chocolate manufacturers. The expedition takes you to the Matte district, which is the oldest part of Bern. The second part is a visit to the Matte distillery, where you will enjoy various chocolates with matching spirits. The distillery is located right next to the building where melting chocolate was discovered around 1879 and has since become established worldwide. Consequently, today's chocolate has its origins in Bern. But as the tour guide has his roots in Bern too, he will certainly have some Bernese insider tips for you along the way.
