Join us on a magical journey where history, culture, and scenic beauty converge.  In just one day, immerse yourself in Alsace’s top attractions without the hassle of planning.

Pick up in Strasbourg and depart for the beautiful town of Colmar. Wander through Colmar’s enchanting streets where every corner tells a story, and marvel at the intricate craftsmanship of centuries-old buildings, its prestigious monuments, the Pfister house, the Koïfhus, Saint Martin collegiate church, and the picturesque neighborhoods of small Venice or of the tanners.

Then depart for the most beautiful village of Eguisheim. Surrounded by vineyards, the narrow and concentric streets highlight the architectural merits of its half-timbered houses, lovingly decorated with flowers. After a walk in the village your tour then continues on to the beautiful town of Riquewihr. 

Surrounded by ramparts, the village has been very fortunate to survive war and destruction. Its tiny streets, fortified walls and old houses have preserved their 16th century splendor virtually intact, making for remarkable architectural harmony. During your free time, savor the taste of traditional Alsatian cuisine, from hearty Coq au Riesling to delectable Kugelhopf. Lunch is at own expense.

Enjoy the Spectacular Alsace Wine Route:
Located between the Rhine Valley and the Vosges mountain range, the 60-year-old route winds across the slopes for more than 170 kms. The itinerary leads across rows of undulating, vine covered hills, and through quaint villages with narrow streets and charming flower decked houses clustered around the local church steeple.

Finally, reach Haut Koenigsbourg castle. Here, follow your guide for a tour of this mighty fortress that overlooks the valley. Built in 12th century, the Castle occupied a strategic position controlling the wine and wheat routes to the North and the salt route that came from the East. After the visit return to Strasbourg.
