Great 1/2 day experience with enough time to get a taste of the beautiful villages. Comfortable van, great tour conductor (Pauline) was very passionate and knowledgeable about the area. Does not include lunch, per se, unless you pop into a place and get a takeaway sandwich. Highly recommend.

Delightful way to explore Colmar & Eguisheim

We had a delightful time going around the quaint villages of colmar snd Eguisheim. Our guide made our exploration even more enjoyable as he talked us through the history of every place.

Judith_S, Oct 2025
Wonderful tour of some Alsatian villages! Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly and very accommodating.

Great tour!

Anima_A, Oct 2025
I had a wonderful time on this small-group tour! As a solo traveler, it was great to still be able to partake in a tour like this since many tours require a two-person minimum to book. Alain was a great tour guide; he was warm, welcoming, and informative! The duration of the tour itself was perfect and perfectly-paced; I did not feel rushed nor like we spent too much time in one place. I also liked that we got free time in each village to wander around. Doing the 9am tour was great because I still had the whole afternoon and evening to enjoy back in Colmar. I highly recommend this tour and thank you for a great tour, Alain!

Fun trip this morning

What a fabulous trip and great value. Immaculate van and Alan was so kind and nice. Do the morning trip before the villages get busy.

Perfect taste of French villages

Great tour of three little towns near Colmar! It’s a small group tour, we were 7 persons and had a wonderful guide Myriam, who gave us a lot of information and also free time to walk around the towns. I highly recommend this tour!

A brilliant tour round the Alsace region visiting a couple of beautiful villages. Alain was a great guide giving us lots of interesting information. Would definitely recommend.

Incredible way to spend half a day

Brian_U, Jul 2025
What a great way to spend a half day in amazing little villages that take you back in time. Amazing views of the mountains and vineyards are spectacular.

Short but informative and sweet

Alicia_B, Jul 2025
A great short tour of the area to discover some of the harder to reach (if no car) villages. It is good to be aware that this tour is not going to give you the time for a sit down meal in the villages (but you can get take-away/to-go options) but the free time does give you time to to a wine-tasting or enjoy some gelato and shopping, if desired. It was the perfect length of time for what we needed.

An unforgettable trip...

Raylene_R, Jul 2025
A great and easy way to visit a few villages outside Colmar. Each town was more picturesque than the one before.

Loved this tour!

John_P, Jun 2025
Great way to experience Alsace in four hours. Arthur packed in just the right amount of his personal knowledge and also gave us enough free time to go back and do what we wanted. It’s hard to believe what we r accomplished in four hours but we never felt rushed. The perfect way to absorb the culture and get an understanding of the region.

Perfect tour of Alsace villages

This tour was great! The guide was excellent. The villages are charming. The tour is well organized. A must if you wanna experience Alsace in one day.

Recommend this tour!

Ryan_U, Jun 2025
Our guide was a native to the region and was able to share a lot of knowledge. Not only of the history on the tour but of the region currently. He was also very accommodating to our group. The others in the group we met were great, also interested in exploring and even though the weather tried to literally dampen our spirits we had a wonderful tour anyway.

Excellent tour guide!

Mary_D, May 2025
Excellent tour! Very personable guide with a lot of local knowledge to share! Allen was outstanding!

Great small tour

Roma_F, May 2025
We had Alan as a tour guy, who is very knowledgeable, intelectual person who wanted us to love this region. Escorted us through towns, so we didn't waste time wondering around.

Wonderful Tour – Highly Recommended!

Mamiko_S, May 2025
I had an amazing time on this tour! I visited on May 6 and was pleasantly surprised to see that these picturesque villages still had their charming Easter decorations up—it added a lovely festive touch. Every street in Kaysersberg and Riquewihr was so beautiful, it was hard not to stop and take a photo at every corner! As a solo traveler, I appreciated the small group size— it made for a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Our guide was fantastic: easy to hear and follow, very informative, and kind. He even gave me a great recommendation for a hike to the Three Castles of Ribeauvillé, which I did the next day—and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of my trip! The views were spectacular. Thank you for that tip! We had just the right amount of free time to wander, take photos, and pick up some Alsace goodies to bring home. I liked the photo stop at the church in Hunawihr. It was especially beautiful and peaceful.This tour was a truly excellent experience and fantastic value for money. Thank you for a memorable day!

Miriam was a great tour guide, she lives in a small village near by and is very knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was a wonderful experience!

Stunning scenery every way you look.

Shaylee_F, Apr 2025
This was a lovely half day tour. The villages are so delightful and having a guide to give the history, drive you there in comfort, and enjoy their commentary was excellent. Arthur, our guide, was fantastic, very chilled, very knowledgeable and great English. Loved the tour so much.

Thierry was Grand Cru!! His in depth knowledge of the Alsace region added so much to our experience. Would highly recommend!

3 Alsatian villages in one afternoon

Winnie_A, Dec 2024
Jerome drove us to Turckheim, Huiswihr and Riquewihr. He guided us through streets of Turckheim to understand Alsatian half timbered houses, brought us uphill in Huiswihr to see the nice view. At Riquewihr, we had free time to roam around Christmas market and the beautiful town. Enjoyed the tour.
