This is the way.
Punctual, friendly driver. Warm, clean, spacious vehicle. We were driven from market/village to market/village and did not have to brave the parking challenges. I cannot recommend using this service to travel to the Christmas markets at the villages near Colmar on these insanely crowded days. It was perfect!

Would not do this tour if you're looking to spend time shopping the markets or town.
This tour was not based on the Christmas Markets but more of a history tour of various villages, of which not all of them were mentioned in the initial offering. Very little time was given to spend at the Christmas Markets or shopping the main streets. Not what we expected. Tour guide was more interested in getting us to the wine tasting and he rushed thru that too.

What an experience!
What a fabulous day! Cristian went above and beyond to ensure we all had a fantastic experience. Informative, efficient and ensured our two young children were also comfortable along the journey. Navigating the busy Christmas market traffic, he got us to the ‘front door’ each time and was ready to take us to the next destination every time. A special mention - at the spur of the moment, he even organised a restaurant reservation for the whole group to dine together, which was lovely. Highly recommended.

Best way to see the villages around Colmar
This was one of the best days of our trip. We really enjoyed exploring the villages around Colmar. We were very lucky to have Christian as our guide and an incredibly lovely group of people that were on our tour. The villages that Christian took us to see and the information that he told us about each place was incredible. We really appreciated how he would drop us close to the centre of the town and then show us some sights and / or provide information. We then had time to explore on our own. Christian would then meet us at the end of our exploration.
This was such an incredible day where we got to see so many little villages surrounding Colmar. We could not have done this ourselves, even with our own car as we would have had to park much further away.
Christian absolutely went out of his way to ensure that we had a fantastic day. This tour exceeded our expectations.
