What a fantastic and very informative tour

Published on Jan, 2025

What a fantastic and very informative tour. Ok, so you have to do a lot of walking but you always stop off for a coffee when you need to, as I did. This doesn’t cover a big area and you’ll find yourself revisiting places but from a different angle but it’s a great introduction into Berns history and the thing I loved the most is most of the places on the tour you would normally walk straight past. It’s all spoken very clearly and the directions given are accompanied with photographs so you know exactly where you should be. I had a problem at first accessing the walk but after asking for help got an answer back within minutes and needed no further assistance. A great tour!

Best audio guide I ever used

Published on Nov, 2024

The best audio guide I have ever used or seen. So well prepared, very interactive and covers the top must-see-places in Bern. The text and explanations of the places are given in such beautiful poetic language, in addition to city discovery I really enjoyed just listening and reading the captures. It has been a great day to discover Bern with family thanks to MyFive. Strongly recommend who anyone who likes to see the city and its highlights.

Extremely thorough self-paced audio tour.

Published on Oct, 2024

Extremely thorough self-paced audio tour. Give yourselves plenty of time. We stopped a few times to shop and to grab a bite, and we only made it through 1/3 of the 150+ segments of the audio tour. Good thing it didn’t cut off after three hours like it said it would. Had to go to McDonalds at time of tour to get free WiFi to download the audio tour - the link was not available until the start time we signed up for.

Excellent!

We had a GREAT day! So much interesting information and so many details were explained that I never would have noticed. I would highly recommend for those who are able to walk around town and want to notice the small details.
