Explorer Tours & Trips in Alsace & Lorraine

Our most thorough Alsace tours take you through 26 carefully chosen spots that really show off the region's French-German character. You'll wind through Strasbourg's old-world streets and discover quiet wine villages, with plenty of surprises along the way. Our travelers tell us they love the evening walks around Carcassonne's lit-up fortress and the relaxing boat rides through Strasbourg's canal network, where flowers spill over every railing. We mix in some interesting detours to old limestone quarries and Roman aqueducts, though some guests mention they'd prefer more time at each major site rather than trying to fit everything in. The tours work best when we balance the grand stops like Heidelberg Castle and the Palace of the Dukes with proper time in small wine towns like Riquewihr and also Ribeauvillé, where you can really settle into local life.
