Bern Day Trip

Bern Day Trip

On the Bern Day Trip from Zürich, we will visit the historic center of Bern, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and learn about Emmental cheese.

The trip begins at 8:30 am from the Sihlquai bus station parking lot in Zürich, proceeding to the Entlebuch Valley, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Upon arrival, participants will receive a bag to collect Swiss products throughout the day.

Next, we will cross the Emmental Valley and visit the Kambly Experience, a traditional Swiss biscuit factory, where we will learn about biscuit production and enjoy a tasting. Following this, we will drive to Bern.

In Bern, we will take a walking tour of the historic center, visiting key landmarks such as the Berner Münster Cathedral, the Swiss Parliament, and the Zytglogge tower with its astronomical clock.

Participants will have approximately 1 hour of free time for lunch and shopping in Bern. The afternoon will include a visit to a typical Bernese farmhouse, seeing local Swiss cows, and touring an Emmental cheese dairy. An interactive tour titled 'King's Way' will also be included, with a brief photo stop at the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau alpine mountains.

The trip concludes with a return to Zürich, arriving at approximately 7 pm.
