Reviews for Ophorus

Tour of wineries in Alasce.

Excellent tour. Our guide Camille ran things perfectly and provided historical background and context for the tastings. I would recommend this to everyone and will take other tours from this provider.

Great Guide and Scenery, Though Comfort and Crowds Were Challenge

Overall this tour delivered on its advertised itinerary and the small group size of eight was accurate. However, eight people felt too many for the sprinter van, which made the ride quite hot and uncomfortable throughout the day. Colmar and the surrounding villages were undeniably beautiful, but visiting during the Christmas market season meant the crowds were extremely heavy. I expected it to be busy, but the volume of people made it difficult to enjoy the experience. This is not the tour companys fault, but travelers should be aware of what to expect if visiting in December. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, though she only accompanied the group during the castle visit and not at the other stops. While this may be the tour format, it would have been helpful to have guidance at each location. Overall the itinerary is lovely, but I would recommend this tour outside the Christmas market period or with a smaller group for a more comfortable experience. One additional note: remember to bring euros to tip your guide. On my tour only a few participants tipped, which was disappointing given the guides effort and professionalism.

Pascal was an AMAZING guide!!! We were so lucky to just be the two of us so he added very specific details based on the information and history we already knew about D-day. He related it to films and shows we had seen. Gave stories as well as amazing facts about the events leading up to, during and following the storming of the beaches! He was a human encyclopedia about the time period and we couldn’t have had a better day regarding such a crucial point in world history!

Thierry was an excellent source of information! The number of stops and castle were exactly as we hoped. Such lovely villages and wonderful wine stop. The castle tour took longer than it was planned to, which made the evening plans a little rushed, but it was an excellent trip and he was funny and made it worthwhile.

Wonderful Alsace Wine Tour

Lovely day into the country around Strasbourg visiting vineyards, tastings, and lunch on our own in Ribeauville. Laurence was a great, knowledgeable sommelier and made the trip more informative and fun.

Highly recommend!

The half day Alsace wine route was the best addition to our trip to Strasbourg! All of the wines we were able to taste were delicious, and I learned SO much about wine! Everyone was very professional, kind, and made the day so interesting and fun. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone coming to visit this area!!

This day trip was so fun!...

This day trip was so fun! Had enough time to explore 2 Christmas markets/towns as it was crowded on the weekend. Lea was an amazing guide! So knowledgeable about the areas.

Really great guide who made the day very cheerful. The wineyards were really nice and the lunch/stroll in the Village was also great. Also nice meeting people from other countries.

Great time.

Leticia was amazing. Highly recommend the trip and her. 6 star. The worst part is having to write a review with requirements after sending multiple request. Let a person say what they want.

This was our second guided trip with Pascal. A great day out with breathtaking visit to Le Mont Saint Michel. Thanks to Pascal for your warm hospitality and highly informative knowledge of the region.

Wonderful tour but did not visit Eguisheim so be warned

This was a wonderful experience visiting beautiful medieval villages during the Christmas season. Colmar and Riquewihr were a feast to the eyes with its picturesque sights and festive atmosphere. Lea was a wonderful guide, she delivered a great service and made everyone engaged and comfortable. However I am very disappointed that we did not visit Eguisheim as promised by the tour description, I was looking forward to seeing this place as I heard it’s equally charming as Riquewihr. Viator (or perhaps the tour company) has done it again failing to deliver a full tour as this also happened to us in a tour in Halstatt three months ago. I’ve been booking Viator for 13 years now but sometimes get let down.
