Reviews
Francesco was an outstanding guide for the Gems of Alsace tour. Although he is on the younger side, he brought a remarkably deep knowledge of the region, its history, villages, wines, and culture. He answered every question thoughtfully and added context that made each stop far more meaningful. He was also super personable, outgoing, and easy to talk with throughout the day. He struck a great balance between sharing information and giving us time to explore on our own. He kept the group organized without ever making the day feel rushed or overly structured. The villages, wine route, and Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle were all wonderful, but Francesco truly elevated the experience. He clearly takes pride in showing visitors the best of Alsace. We would happily recommend this tour—and especially Francesco—to anyone visiting the region.
We had an exceptional tour with Valentine, who was so energetic and generous in sharing his knowledge on wines. We will never read wine labels the same anymore! Thank you Valentine! The tour could be more comfortable if there was a bigger car as 2 of my friends had to sit at the front and the middle seat would not be possible for a bigger person. Also the choice of wineyard could be better although "better" is subjective - the our group of 5 would rate our last stop the poorest although the other 3pax in our tour might thought otherwise!
Our guide to Saint-Emilion was perfect. He was very knowledgeable of wines and the three chateaux that we visited. Also being picked up at the tourism office was very convenient.
