Alsace at its finest

Elaine_A, Jan 2026
We lived in Strasbourg 20 years ago, and wanted to spend some time, enjoying Alsace. Christophe surprised us with experiences that we hadn’t enjoyed when we lived here and told us new things. He collected us at the train station, giving us a pin to find him and his car description, so it felt very secure. We finished and he took us to the entrance of Petite France so that we could stroll through the town at our leisure. Communication prior to our experience was very attentive and I believe that the owner, Stephane, made sure we had the perfect day. We will always contact them when we visit the area. Highly recommended!

Hello ! Thanks for this amazing review ! We always try to understand our guests expectation to provide something that really fits to what they hope

Stefan was exceptional....

Annmarierea_k, Oct 2025
Stefan was exceptional. Super friendly, great communication in advance to finalize all details… all leading to a very personalized experience! He customizes your tour based on your input. I won’t spoil the surprise but he shared that he would be taking us to two of his highly recommended hidden gems and it really was amazing! Great tour, super helpful and friendly guide. Thank you Stefan!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for this fantastic review! 🙌 I’m glad you enjoyed my top-secret hidden gems — I was worried you would give them away 😅 It was a real pleasure creating a personalized adventure for you (and keeping at least some surprises up my sleeve). Hope to see you again soon for “Part II: The Secret Spots Strike Back”

Perfect

Great experience with a wonderful guide. Did not seemed rush. Driver was safe and knew everything about the region

Great way to see Alsace from Strasbourg

slwalsh99, Apr 2025
We did an awesome tour with Stephania. Stephania was a wealth of knowledge of the history of the area and very flexible in planning the day. I highly recommend this firm as a great way to see and experience the Alsace region. Our first stop was the small village of Ebermunster where we toured the church of Saint Maurice. It was really surprising to find such a beautiful church in such a small village. Our next stop was the castle Chateau du Haut Koenigsbourg. While the fog the day we were there prevented seeing the panoramas the castle is known for, it did add a mysterious feeling to the place as we explored the castle. The weather probably also kept the crowd size down a bit, though it was still busy. The castle was very interesting, even though it was a 19th century rebuild of a 12th century structure. Our next stop was the village of Bergheim, at one time known for housing criminals, where we walked along the existing town walls and towers and stopped in a boulangerie to purchase some food (quiche and a salami sandwich) that we ate as we walked through the village. We visited the church there, also interesting though not as impressive as the one in Ebermunster. We also got some pictures of storks in their roof-top nests. The village was decorated for Easter and the “garden of witches” was toned down as a result! We then visited the village of Hunawihr, home to a fountain and village laundry since the middle ages. There, Stephania surprised us with a bottle of crémant, that we enjoyed while hearing the story of the “mixed” church of Hunawihr as well as the history behind the development of the crémant appellation. From Hunawihr, we went to Riquewihr, the most picturesque of the Alsace villages on our tour. There we sampled and bought macarons, wandered through a year-round Christmas shop and went to the Dopff for a wine tasting. We probably tasted a half dozen crémant and another half dozen still wines. We purchased 6 bottles of Pinot Gris to be shipped home – great stuff! After leaving Riquewihr, we traveled to Ammerschwihr along the Route des Vins d’Alsace and did another wine tasting at Maurice Shoech and bought a bottle to have that evening back at our hotel. Our last stop was in Kayserberg. We visited a church with a very large crucifix statue – I can’t imagine weddings in this church seemed very festive. We bought two types of cheese that I can’t recall names for. Both excellent. We learned the hard way to specify how much we wanted to spend as opposed to letting the proprietor suggest how big of a piece to cut from the wheel – we spent close to $50 on cheese! We also bought a baguette at a nearby boulangerie. We took a slight detour on our return to Strasbourg from Kayserberg to do a drive-by of the Statue of Liberty replica in Colmar. Stephania had suggested we plan to do a full day in Colmar as opposed to going there as part of our tour with her to save travel time and getting between Strasbourg and Colmar was easy and quick by train. We followed her advice and spent a good day in Colmar later in the week. I highly recommend this firm as a great way to see and experience the Alsace region.

Book with Stephane!!!

Chelsea_Z, Dec 2024
I cannot sing enough praise for Stephane and his agency! Though we originally booked the aforementioned tour, after a few messages with Stephane to work out details, we ended up customizing our day into the perfect tour of the entire Alsace region complete with wine tastings, Christmas market visits, charming medieval villages, a castle visit, and even a few special surprises from Stephane along the way. Every piece of advice he gave me about the region was spot on and we never would have had the day we had without his help and services. He said early on that one of his goals was to give us the best experience in Alsace possible and wow did he deliver! It was the perfect way to end our time in France/Alsace. I've already referred friends to him I was so impressed!

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Hello ! Its nice to read your review here . Im so happy that you enjoyed your day with us :)... Having a private driver in this area makes you win a lot of time especially at Christmas time :) Hope to see you back here in a few years again :)

Perfect afternoon!

Jeanne_C, Nov 2024
This was the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon in France. Christophe was a terrific host who was easy to talk with and flexible with ideas for our trip. He took us to a beautiful overlook, treated us to a bottle of Cremant, took us to a winery, and then took us to a "hidden gem" that he recommended. We couldn't have asked for more.

Worth it!

Beth_M, May 2024
What a wonderful day we had with our guide, Christophe! Visiting the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle was a highlight, especially because our guide was able to drive us past all the people trudging uphill and drop us right at the door. It was also a great day for a stop in the countryside, in a spot that other tourists hadn't found. We know and understand the region much better because of this outing. Highly recommended.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

THANK YOU Steph On Tour is a team and we work hard to set up all those tours. Christophe is one of our best drivers and is very involved to make those tours one of the best memories of your trip in Alsace

Drinking wine in the Alsace region of France

Ron_C, May 2024
First, Stephon was great. He provided a quality mini van (very comfortable), a sense of humor, and lots of information about the region. He helped identify two wineries for a half day tour which were very good. He provided three special touches along our journey. At the first winery, he provided a dessert from a local bakery as we drank wine. He then drove us to a little chapel that overlooked a small village within the region where he provided a bottle of wine and served us as we snapped pictures (unbelievable view). The third item was a nice add-on, he organized our shipment of wine from two different wineries back to the states (reducing our shipping costs). He was flexible about everything including the best place for pickup and drop-off. We raise a glass to Stephon for a unforgettable memory. Tour well done.

A great way to explore Alsace

Garth_O, Apr 2024
Such an excellent day. Comfortable, good pace and a great way to see Alsace. Our driver was friendly, engaged in conversation, but importantly (as old friends catching up) also gave us our space to hang out.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thank you for a nice feedback that's the best reward we can hope

Custom Alsacien Village & Wine Tour

MaryE_B, Mar 2024
We enjoyed the beautiful villages in Alsace and wine tour and tasting. Stefania was a wonderful driver and had a special surprise for us at one of our stops. It was very comfortable being driven in the Tesla

Excellent trip with knowledge guide

Richard_A, Oct 2023
An excellent trip. Stéphane was great, really informative and enthusiastic, the car was excellent, and the locations picked for the trip were great. Would definitely recommend.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thanks for your feedback. When we do that " Petit Alsacien" tour ( The small Alsatian), we really try to give you everything possible of the Alsace region in a limited time. I'm so glad you enjoyed the trip .

Delightful Afternoon

Rolandis_H, Jul 2023
Communication with the tour operator was excellent as we were not certain where our boat would be docked until the night before. Our river cruise offered a similar experience for twice as much and we so enjoyed having a private wine tasting in a quiet lovely setting followed by a visit to a nearby charming Medieval village. Our driver/guide was very conscious of returning us to our boat before it set sail. The Tesla was fun, too!

Storybook Visit to Alsace

Cathy_L, May 2023
We spent a beautiful day with Christophe as our guide. Christophe was punctual and a pleasure to get to know. His car was spacious and comfortable and we saw some of the best parts of the Alsace region. We set off into green rolling hills to visit an organic, sustainable winery—wonderful atmosphere inside and out. Next stop, a visit to the impressive Koenigsbourg Castle. We ended our day with a quick stop in HUNAWIHR and a stroll through the storybook, medieval town of Riquewihr. A perfect finish to a perfect day!

Response from Host, May 2023

Thanks a lot for your review. Its always a lot of pressure for new drivers in the "Steph On tour" team. But when i hired Christophe i was sure that he would give his best and do a really great job ! ... Im so happy that you enjoyed your time with him . Best regards

Wonderful time in the countryside outside of Strasbourg!

Deborah_S, Mar 2023
We loved being out in the countryside, seeing small villages, and hearing about local life from our very charming guide, Stephan.

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thanks for that review. The region is amazing and even if i drive there every day i still don't get bored :) Steph On Tour :)

Wonderful Time touring Alsace!

Mary_B, Dec 2022
We had a great custom tour with Stephane. I had an unusual request to go to Herrlisheim (my dad's WW2 battle site). Stephane was so kind to accept my request. He picked us up at the Strasbourg train station and was communicating with us along the way. Our train had a slight delay but Stephane said he would wait for us. He was so flexible to accommodate our request which was something I have wanted to do for the longest time. His car is awesome too. When we got back to Strasbourg for the Christmas Market he made sure we knew where exactly to do and even texted links to what we should see. Thank you so very much Stephane!

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Had no time to say "thank you" before. I loved every moment of that short trip with you. I learned a lot about WW2 and Herlisheim and it was moving to help you on that tour

Highly recommend this tour and one not to miss!

Alan_W, Jul 2021
This tour was personalise for exactly what we wanted - the beautiful Alsace countryside and a visit to two wineries. Stephane did an amazing job. He is personable, professional and very knowledgeable about the region. It made the experience extra special by demonstrating his skills to open bottle of champagne by sabering. Highly recommend this tour and one not to miss!

Response from Host, Jul 2021
