Program & Itinerary
Enjoy a private half‑day escape from Strasbourg to discover two iconic Alsace highlights: Obernai and Mont Sainte Odile. In Obernai, often described as “Alsace in a nutshell,” you’ll stroll cobbled streets lined with colorful half‑timbered houses, lively squares and medieval architecture that showcase the region’s charm.
Then your driver‑guide takes you up through the forested hills to Mont Sainte Odile, a historic monastery perched high above the plain, where panoramic views over vineyards, the Rhine valley and the Vosges create a breathtaking backdrop. Throughout the tour, your English‑speaking local guide shares stories of Saint Odile, local legends and everyday Alsatian life, while you travel in comfort with hotel pickup and drop‑off in an air‑conditioned minivan for a seamless, memorable experience.

Additional information
This private Obernai & Mont Sainte Odile tour is ideal for curious adults who want a gentle, immersive introduction to Alsace’s villages and landscapes in just a few hours. It’s especially suited to couples, small groups of friends, and first‑time visitors based in Strasbourg who enjoy cobbled streets, local history and scenic viewpoints more than checking off lots of sights. Because there is some uphill walking and uneven ground, it works best for guests with good basic mobility who appreciate combining a charming wine‑route town with the calmer, spiritual atmosphere and panoramic views of a hilltop sanctuary.
