Breakfast at the hotel. Today it is all about Swiss Chocolate and Cheese. An early start to the day is required to experience this extraordinary culinary journey of Switzerland's most famous produce. This self-driven tour starts by driving due northwest to Broc, which is the home of the Swiss chocolate brand Cailler. Entry to the chocolate factory and a tour are included. Later a short stop by the village of Gruyere is recommended too - the famous medieval castle dominates this picturesque village. Continue by driving slightly northeast of Bern to the Emmentaler Show dairy, entry is included, and you will see at firsthand how Swiss cheese is made. A late lunch/early dinner is recommended and we suggest a hearty cheese fondue (at own expense). Return by car to Interlaken. Overnight stay in Interlaken. If a slower pace is required then we recommend only doing the chocolate factory tour in Broc with an extended visit to the village of Gruyere or visiting the Show Dairy Emmentaler; a chocolate shop visit can be arranged on day 7 in Lucerne or Zurich (at additional expense). In such a case we recommend a visit to Max Chocolatier, where a chocolate tasting/making can be arranged locally. Additional information on this option is available on request. Overnight in Interlaken.
