This allows you to choose the seat that best suits your preferences, ensuring both social distancing and an immersive experience guided by your expert. Our vehicles are equipped with an onboard P/A system, ensuring that you can clearly hear the insightful commentary from your driver/guide, regardless of where you are seated.
Visit Authentic Alsace Villages
Immerse yourself in the charm of Alsace as we embark on a highly recommended small group private day trip from Colmar, where you'll explore the most captivating villages and landmarks. Departing from Colmar, your first stop is the delightful village of Turckheim. Known for its traditional Alsatian ambiance and fewer crowds, Turckheim offers a perfect starting point for your tour.
Wander through the center of Turckheim, marveling at the abundance of traditional Alsace-style houses adorned with vibrant flowers. Admire notable buildings, such as the town hall, hospital, and guard house, dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. The village's fortifications and three original gateways add a unique touch to its architecture. Enjoy a guided walking tour of the village, accompanied by your knowledgeable guide. Additional villages of interest include Eguisheim or Kaysersberg. Our personalized private tour allows flexibility, so don't hesitate to discuss your preferences with your driver/guide.
Including Breathtaking Riquewihr
Continuing our journey, we arrive at the enchanting town of Riquewihr. This remarkably preserved village, nestled within fortified walls, has withstood the test of time and retained its splendor from the 16th century. Explore its narrow cobblestone streets, admire the old houses, and feel the harmony of its architectural beauty. Take advantage of free time for personal discovery and perhaps indulge in a delightful lunch (not included).
Discover the Alsace Wine Route
Venturing further, we reach the renowned Alsace Wine Route, an exquisite stretch winding for over 170 km between the Rhine Valley and the Vosges mountain range. As we meander through undulating vine-covered hills and pass quaint villages adorned with charming flower-decked houses, you'll have the opportunity to stop at one of these villages and indulge in a captivating wine tasting session. Let the flavors of the local wines enchant your palate.
Uncover the Mighty Haut Koenigsbourg Castle
Our final destination is the majestic Haut Koenigsbourg Castle, a medieval fortress overlooking the valley. Accompanied by your guide, embark on a fascinating tour of this historic stronghold. Built in the 12th century, the castle held a strategic position, commanding control over the wine and wheat routes to the North, as well as the salt route from the East. Please note that the entrance fee to the castle is not included in the tour price.
Visiting the Château du Haut Koenigsbourg involves navigating numerous steps and uneven terrain, so please ensure you are in good physical condition for this monument. Throughout the full-day tour, enjoy the undivided attention of your guide on this private excursion. Please note that we also offer this tour as a day trip from Strasbourg, including a visit to Colmar and its renowned landmarks, such as the Pfister House.
After the visit, we will return to Colmar, concluding our captivating journey through the enchanting Alsace region.
