Full description
This half day private tour from Colmar has been designed to satisfy your personal taste. If there are two things that cannot be missed in Alsace: its fairy tale villages and the wines that are produced here!
In the morning or afternoon, we will come and pick you up at your accommodation in Strasbourg. Meet your English speaking tour guide who will also be your driver. This Private half day tour is fully customizable so don’t hesitate to indicate your choice for your tour to either discover the alsatian wines or the local villages – or both!
Colmar is ideally located to discover either or both. As you are picked up by your own personal English speaking driver/guide, take 5 minutes to let him/her know what you would really like to discover. Your guided tours can either head towards some of the small towns or most beautiful villages located along the wine route in the surrounding area such as Eguisheim, Kaysersberg, Rouffach or so many more.
Or why not decide for an introduction to the wines and wine tasting of the alsace region and be driven to meet some of the local wine makers that will explain the type of wines they produce, the soil the vines grow on, and of course have you taste these great wines to learn about color, aromas and style. Finally, another highly recommended option is to combine both villages and wine so as to make the most out of your time on this half day experience.

Reviews
We had a very fun day with Matt to Mont Saint-Mitchel. Matt is an excellent tour guide & he cared for his clients very much. He's an on time person. We learned a lot about the history of Saint-Mitchel via Matt. He made sure we have enough time browsing this beautiful UNESCO. We definitely recommend friends & family this tour. Thank you Matt
Pascal was, above all, a smiling whirlwind of energy from the very start — bursting with knowledge, passion, and just the right amount of dramatic flair. He painted the horror of the Omaha Beach invasion so vividly that we could practically hear the chaos, then marched us through the bunkers at Pointe du Hoc like we were on a mission ourselves. And before we even caught our breath, he had already catapulted us back to Bayeux at invasion speed. A legend in tour‑guide form. Thanks from Croatian Team😉
Our Normandy D-Day tour was well worth it and we so enjoyed our tour guide Matt. He made the tour engaging, entertaining and informative. The tour was just the right size and a half day was perfect for us. It would have been much harder to get around to the sites and understand each without the information that Matt was constantly sharing. There was hardly a time that Matt was not telling us what/how/when of what we were looking at. Thanks Matt!
