Pick up at centrally located meeting point in Strasbourg
This morning, we will come and pick you up at Place Gutenberg, just next to the Gutenberg Statue. The Gutenberg square is located close to all the hotels located in the city center, usually a maximum 10 minutes walking distance.
Meet your English Speaking Driver/Guide who is a local Expert of Alsace
Upon arrival at the meeting point, you will be welcomed by your English speaking guide who will be waiting with a sign bearing the name of the tour and with the Ophorus logo on it. Also, all our guides have a nominative badge so that it will be easy for you to recognize them.
Once you have met your guide, he/she will go over the program and itinerary of the day with you. Then, board your comfortable, air conditioned Mercedes minivan and begin to make your way to the Alsace wine producing region.
All our vehicles are equipped with an on board P/A system which means that everyone will hear the guide's commentary during driving time, even if you are seated in the back of the van! Also, we have bottled water at your disposal and you can use our free wifi as you travel from one destination to another.
Depart for the Colmar Christmas Market
The arrival of the little wooden huts in the town squares of Alsace’s towns and villages is a major event. The Christmas markets mark the return of time-honored festivities. A world of delicious fragrances, delightful craft goods and lights quickly takes shape along the rows, where some surprising and mouthwatering discoveries await the markets’ visitors.
Christmas in Colmar’s Historical town center means a historic setting made magical by amazing Christmas illuminations that blend perfectly with the wonderful lighting designed to enhance the town’s heritage. The pedestrian city center with its major architectural treasures that stretch from the Middle Ages to the 19th century is decorated like in a dream, a veritable open-air theatre where the warm Christmas mood envelops the heart of the town. Here, enjoy some free time in the city to discover one or several Christmas Markets on your own, as the town holds 5 different markets.
Your guide will take you to local Christmas Markets in a Small Authentic village
Then, depart along the famous Alsace Wine Route to pass through some of the most beautiful villages of Alsace. The afternoon program will depend on the date of your tour. Obernai or Bergheim (Christmas Cribs tour) villages host a market every single day. On certain dates, your stop will certainly include the Christmas Markets of Riquewihr or Ribeauvillé as this is when the Medieval Christmas markets are being held.
After the visit return to Strasbourg.
DECEMBER 2022:
Please note that due to the actual, exceptional and unpredictable bad weather conditions, the itinerary and program may change during the tour. The guides will do their best to adapt the tours to your preferences and your security as well.
