Great Tour!
Thierry was a lovely guide for the region! My fiancée and I enjoyed the wine tasting immensely and I would highly recommend joining for the experience if you’re wanting to sample the local wines in Colmar!! I would have some snacks beforehand to make sure you’re ready for all the lovely wines!

Beautiful Vineyards & Great Wine Tasting
We enjoyed visiting two excellent vineyards with unique, high-quality wines and knowledgeable guides. The beautiful scenery and tastings were highlights. Our driver was friendly, though a little more guidance around wine purchases would have been helpful. We would have preferred more scenic viewpoints, but overall it was a very enjoyable tour!

A terrific day in Alsace
Wonderful. Little town of Eguishein was delightful. Winery was great, wine was delicious. Our second stop was a small private winery owned by a lovely winemaker. She sat with us for an hour and offered tastes of everything. We all bought wine, had a lovely day together meeting new friends.

A little disappointed
I've done a lot of tours including history and wines tours through Viator and similar apps in the past. I've always been happy and never have had a negative review. Unfortunately, I felt like this tour wasn't well coordinated. It felt as though the 4 hours weren't used very well considering the wineries were about 10-20 minutes from Colmar. We got to go up to a couple view points quickly that were okay but had no time in the towns and it all felt rushed. The wineries we visited we visited were great but the tasting offered minimal information and we got very little information about winemaking and history of the area overall. Usually on tours like this the guide talks while you're driving around but he didn't give us any information while driving and didn't seem too interested in our questions.
For the price I felt pretty disappointed because we could have easily ubered over to the wineries and not paid as much and had a better experience if it wasn't going to be a full tour with lots of information. We ended up going ourselves to a nearby village another day and doing a wine tasting at a small winery and taking the mini train tour and though that was much better.

1/2 day wine tour - Alsace
Overall the excursion was a good experience and our guide Francesco was excellent. The first winery we experienced (Schoenheitz
VINS D'ALSACE
ÉCHELLE DE SUCROSITÉ DES VINS) had an amazing sommelier by the name of Rowan who offered our group some very interesting insights on the winery’s history and the region’s contribution to wine making. The second stop was in Egusheim which is an amazing and scenic village in terms of its architecture and history. Unfortunately, the wine tasting was done in a retail like manner that seemed very impersonal and rushed.

Beautiful countryside
The best part of the tour was riding through the beautiful villages. There was a lot of wine tasting, more than I could handle.

Okay but not the top
Unfortunately, the guide was not very engaged with the group and told very little about grape cultivation and production. The first wine tasting felt like it wasn't booked and we had to sit outside instead of inside the venue. The second test was better.
Operator response
Bonjour Annapedersen1,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the first tasting did not fully meet your expectations.
We appreciate your comments regarding the guide and the information provided about winegrowing and production, and we will take this feedback on board. We are glad to hear that the second tasting was a more positive experience.
Regarding the first winery, seating arrangements can sometimes depend on the winery’s availability and the conditions on the day, but we understand that this may have affected your experience.
Thank you again for your feedback, it helps us continue improving our tours.
Kind regards,
Carole

Very good!
We had a super educational wine tour, and we got to taste many different wines at the winemakers that Thierry had selected. Thierry was a super friendly and funny guide, we had fun!
Hat Thierry!

History, culture and wine!
This was a wonderful ride through the countryside to neighbouring towns to visit two very charming wineries with a very knowledgeable guide. Manon was a very nice young lady who did a great job explaining the Alsace region and the wine making process. I would recommend this tour without hesitation.

Unique tasting experience
Really personable and knowledgeable tour guide. We went to 2 very unique, small wineries and sampled much more variety of wines than other tours we’ve been on. It was really lovely to get to pick and choose the wines we would like to try rather than being restricted to someone else’s selection.
