Discover the Treasures of Alsace on a Private Sightseeing Excursion
Set out from Colmar on a full‑day private journey through the most beautiful villages, vineyards and landmarks of Alsace. With your English‑speaking driver‑guide at the wheel of a comfortable, air‑conditioned minivan, you enjoy a relaxed day of gentle walking, scenic driving and insider commentary, without having to worry about routes or timings.
Morning Pick‑Up in Colmar and Departure
Your day begins with convenient pick‑up from your centrally located accommodation in Colmar, where your guide reviews the easy‑to‑follow itinerary and answers any initial questions. Once everyone is settled, you leave the city behind and follow quiet country roads toward the first wine‑route villages.
Eguisheim and Turckheim: Storybook Villages in the Vines
Your first stop is Eguisheim, a circular village wrapped in vineyards, where concentric cobblestone lanes, half‑timbered houses and colourful flower boxes create a true fairy‑tale setting. You enjoy a guided stroll through the historic streets, with time for photographs and a little browsing. Continuing on, you pass or pause in Turckheim, another traditional village known for its beautifully preserved Alsace‑style houses and village atmosphere.
Riquewihr: Walled Medieval Gem and Time for Lunch
You then reach Riquewihr, a fortified village whose 16th‑century houses and cobbled main street have hardly changed in centuries. Here your guide introduces the main landmarks, then leaves you free to wander at your own pace and choose a restaurant for lunch (at your own expense), whether you fancy a classic winstub, a terrace café or a lighter option.
Alsace Wine Route and Tasting of Local Whites
In the afternoon, you follow a scenic stretch of the Alsace Wine Route, travelling between vineyard‑covered hillsides, church steeples and ruined castles perched above the valley. During a stop in one of the wine‑growing villages, you visit a local cellar for a relaxed wine tasting, discovering the region’s signature white wines such as Riesling, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer or Sylvaner, and learning how terroir and tradition shape their flavours.
Haut‑Koenigsbourg Castle: A Historic Finale
Your final highlight is Haut‑Koenigsbourg Castle, dramatically set on a rocky spur overlooking the Rhine plain. With your guide, you explore ramparts, courtyards and furnished rooms while hearing how this 12th‑century fortress once watched over vital trade routes for wine, wheat and salt. The combination of sweeping views and rich history makes this an unforgettable finale to your day in Alsace.
Return to Colmar
After your castle visit, you sit back and relax in the minivan for the comfortable drive back to Colmar, where you are dropped off at or near your accommodation with a camera full of photos and a much deeper feel for the landscapes, villages and wines of Alsace.
