Experience Freiburg and Its Lovely Old Quarter
This morning, we will come and pick you up at your centrally located Strasbourg Hotel or accommodation. Meet your English-speaking driver guide who will go over the program and itinerary of this private day trip.
Then board your air conditioned minivan and start to make your way toward Southern Germany. Known for its ancient university and its medieval minster (Cathedral), for its high standard of living and advanced environmental practices, the city is situated in the heart of a major wine-growing region and is the primary entry point to the scenic beauty of the Black Forest.
The town has more to offer than friendly faces alone, including one of Germany’s prettiest old quarters, with its characteristic Bächle – the narrow channels of water that run alongside the pavements.
After some free time to explore the town and lunch at own expense, head towards the scenic route of the Black Forest. The Black Forest is a wooded mountain range bordered by the Rhine valley to the west and south.
The highest peak is the Feldberg with an elevation of 1,493 meters (4,898 feet). The name Black Forest comes from the general dark color of the numerous pine trees that grow in this region. It is said that it is the Black Forest that inspired the Brother Grimm the Hansel & Gretel fairy tale.
The Black Forest gateau and the cuckoo clocks originate from this region. Here, you will follow the scenic route and stop in a small quaint village that borders one of the most beautiful lakes of the area. You might want to try the local food such as cured meats or the world-famous Black Forest cake that leaves nobody indifferent!
After the tour, return to Strasbourg.

Kenet18, May 2023Robin is the ultimate tour guy. He is very knowledgeable of the area and the history in the area. He took us to the best place to eat, and the best place to get dessert and the best place to get souvenirs as well as to see all the sites in the black forest. We highly recommend him.

QuilterKathy5215, Nov 2019Beautiful day in the Black Forest
Florence was a great guide. Freiburg is a very charming college town with tons of history and character. We had a lovely outdoor lunch in the market square with Florence & , because we were interested in the local wines, she took us to her favorite wine shop. The drive through the Black Forest & stop at the lake was so scenic & beautiful. The lake town is lovely & we indulged in Black Forest cake at the local bakery. Florence was a wealth of knowledge & we thoroughly enjoyed this trip.

Good tour to do when you are in Strasbourg. We especially enjoyed Titisee and wished we could have spent more time there. Arianne, our guide, gave good insights about the places we visited. There was good balance of structured tour and free time

JAIME G14, Aug 2019Sorprendente
Mucha gente ensalza Colmar como la jota de la corona y lo es de Alsacia no obstant empezando la selva negra por debajo Alemania nos brinda Torà ciudad de ensueño. Està a 60 quilòmetros de Basilea. Y tiene una personalitat pròpia, no faltan los colores y las Flores por todos sitios y los pequeños cà bales por los que transcurre el agua a ras de a era son a nuestro entendre Exclusives.

Our guide, Florence, spoke excellent English. Her descriptions of Strasbourg, Freiburg and the countryside were always interesting. She was very helpful but also gave us time on our own to explore. Good driver, also. Our day with Florence was a highlight of our trip!!

Shirley K21, Sep 2017Booked this tour through Viator for 8 people, and had a minivan that comfortably seated all of us. Our tour guide/driver was Jean Yves, with local tour operator Ophorus. He did a wonderful job of explaining to us the history and pertinent facts of all the areas we traveled through on this tour, took us to a favored local restaurant in the hills overlooking Freiburg for lunch, and also went out of his way to take us to a great shop in the Black Forest for quality souvenirs, as our tour was on a Sunday, and most shops are closed. He maintained a great sense of humor, and made us feel that he was enjoying our company as much as we enjoyed his! Highly recommend this tour!

Taline H02, Sep 2016Amazing trip to Freiburg and the Black Forest. Definitely worth it. Freiburg is an enchanting town, right out of a fairy tale book so is the lake area around the black forest region. Beautiful landscapes on our way back to Strasbourg, passing thru breath-taking villages and vineyards. Our guide Danielle was very knowledgeable and helpful, she made sure to follow our own pace and make the best out of the tour.

Connie W05, May 2015we enjoyed our day trip especially our time with our guide Florence. Florence was personable., very knowledgeable about the area and the people. The vans should have back up cameras especially for indoor parking.
