“A very friendly, knowledgeable lady who guided us through Thun.”
Köniz
Köniz is a large municipality southwest of the city of Bern. Since it also includes a lot of scattered settlements, it still has partly a village character. Worth seeing in Köniz is a so-called Ofenhaus, which was built in the mid-18th century and includes a wood stove, farmhouse and granary. The Gurten, the local mountain of the city of Bern, is also located in the municipality. The Gurten is a popular excursion mountain. You can reach it by the Gurtenbahn.

“Nice experience suitable for children, with the opportunity to taste Emmentaler at various maturations, which is highly appreciated.”
“Ms Rothenbühler deserves great praise for turning every negative situation around. Well done!”
“Excellent tour with interesting, engaging commentary.”
“We know Fribourg a bit, but between the Sarine river, the old town, and the mountains, it was great weather-wise.”
“For me, it was a very good guided tour, even though, as a long-time resident of Einsiedeln (Matura 1964), I already knew quite a lot. On today's visit, I brought along a young man from the neighbourhood who had never been to Einsiedeln before. It was an interesting experience for both of us.”
