About this tour
Spend 8.5 hours exploring Alsace's wine country with a private guide and sommelier, departing from Colmar, Basel or Mulhouse. Visit two working wineries, taste around a dozen wines, and wander through a traditional Alsatian village. You'll travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with someone who knows these slopes intimately—expect storytelling about the land and the families who've worked it, plus the practical knowledge of how Alsatian wine differs from its neighbours.

- Two winery visits with estate owners and winemakers
- Taste approximately 12 wines across the day
- Private sommelier guide with deep regional knowledge
- Stroll through an authentic Alsatian village
- Air-conditioned transport from three starting points

What to expect
Your sommelier collects you from Colmar, Basel or Mulhouse and drives you into the vine-covered hills. The first winery is unhurried—you'll taste wines directly with the producers, learning why their terroir matters. The second follows a similar rhythm. Between estates, you'll stop in a village where half-timbered houses and narrow lanes give you a feel for how people actually live here. Lunch isn't included, so factor in a restaurant stop or picnic. The tastings are structured but conversational; your guide reads the group and adjusts accordingly.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes for vineyard paths and village cobbles. Bring water and sunscreen—Alsatian slopes face south. The tour isn't suited to pregnant travellers. Service animals welcome. Public transport nearby if you prefer not to be driven.
