We were very pleased with our small group tour to Colmar and Riquewihr. We did walk a lot but the Christmas markets were charming. The tour left at 9am and returned at 4pm.

I had a great time! We went to Riquewihr and Colmar. I LOVED Riquewihr. The town was so cute and they had one merchant selling “Peter’s best” Glühwein/Vin Chaud. It was incredible! Colmar was also super cute!

My family and I enjoyed these visits to the beautiful Alsacian towns and their markets. Memories of a lifetime.

Miriam was a very pleasant tour guide. She gave us lots of great information as we traveled from place to place, and she was a safe driver. Colmar and Riquewihr were soooo crowded. And the Christmas markets in both area were just the same stuff sold everywhere. For a Christmas market tour, it would be better to go to places with more authentic Christmas markets. But, both towns were cute and we enjoyed just walking around in town and not going to the markets. We liked the fact that the tour was done during driving time and then we were just on our own in town. Others may not like that though so should pick their tour carefully if they want a tour guide with them at all times.

Had a great day visiting the Krindelmarkets in Colmar and Oberine. Funs stuff to look at, hot wine and apple cider, roasted chestnuts, and a great guide with Jerome. Would recommend taking the trip. The rain wasn’t too disruptive, and still had a great time.

Michael_K

Aude was an excellent guide! She is warm, knowledgeable and fun to be with. The reason for only 4 stars is independent of our guide — who was great! We were a group of 6 tourists for whom I’m thankful that the additional 2 did not make the tour, allowing for more comfortable seating for us remaining. I would have rated the tour a 2 star had all 8 of us been present.
