Summary:
The beer tour was very informative! Our guide, Lina, was really helpful and also taught us how to travel around Basel via local transport, recommending us the fastest way to get around the city and back to our hotel. She even gave us great food recommendations in Zurich and introduced us to the best donuts in Basel! The experience with the local brewery, Matt and Elly, was also really wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed the beer tasters and they had AMAZING tapas as well. The owners of Matt and Elly also introduced to us the basics of beer brewing process and we got to explore a little and took a look at their fermenters! It was a great tour overall!
