What to expect
Your guide picks you up from Strasbourg and takes you through rolling wine country punctuated by fortified castles. Expect to spend two to three hours at the château itself, climbing to ramparts and soaking in views across the Vosges. The villages are compact and walkable—narrow lanes, half-timbered houses, and family-run wine bars. You'll visit a working vineyard or cellar for tastings, likely two or three wines with explanations of the terroir. Lunch happens en route at a place your guide knows; drinks are covered but you'll pay for food separately.
Good to know
