“It was a great insight into the world of chocolate, and the kids really enjoyed creating their own chocolate.”
Romanshorn
Romanshorn is a harbor town on the southern part of Lake Constance. The Swiss Lake Constance Shipping Company has its headquarters here, so quite a few boat trips start in Romanshorn. The SBB train station is located directly at the harbor. In the hinterland, the small town has a lot of forest, which was awarded for its exemplary forestry. The old customs house, which has been converted into a museum, and the mighty warehouses at the harbor, which were still used for cargo handling until 2020, are worth seeing.

“Claudia was very knowledgeable and answered all questions.”
“The night watchman Marcel was brilliant. We learned a lot and had a good laugh. It was a really lovely evening. Thanks.”
“On our innkeeper’s recommendation, we booked the 07:40 cable car from Mürren to the Schilthorn, as well as an 08:00 brunch reservation at Piz Gloria. The views were breathtaking, and the brunch buffet offered plenty of choice. We had 90 minutes at our table, which gave us plenty of time to enjoy the changing scenery from the revolving restaurant. We also explored the other viewing areas and enjoyed the James Bond film memorabilia. Our next stop was Birg, where we took in the Skyline View and watched the more adventurous visitors tackle the Thrill Walk. Our final stop was Mürren, before we walked back to Gimmelwald. It was a great alternative and less expensive than the Jungfrau experience.”
“Had a fun time. Was interesting and educational plus great chocolate samples and to purchase.”
“Amazing time. Money well spent on guide with my travel companion not interested in this activity I was thankful I had someone with me encouraging me and giving me so much historical and local history. I just wish I had known I needed my wallet to on the adventure. I had no idea it didn’t end anywhere near the start! Ithink communication should be improved so tourists know you need to plan your way back UP to the starting point to retrieve your belongings or return your rental shoes, etc. Options area) $7 1way cable car ticket UP to Murren, or 45 min hike back UP to Murren. This was not clear for anyone in our group.”
