Discover the Famous Town of Baden Baden
In the morning we will come and pick you up at your centrally located accommodation in Strasbourg. Meet your English speaking driver guide who will go over the itinerary and program of this private day tour from Strasbourg. Then board your air conditioned vehicle, cross the Rhine River and begin to make your way to Southern Germany.
Baden Baden, a spa town, is located on the western foothills of the Black Forest, on the banks of the Oos River, in the region of Karlsruhe. During the 19th century, the town rose to become a meeting place for celebrities attracted by the hot springs, as well the luxury hotels, the horse races and the gardens of the Lichtentaler Allee.
Discover this fascinating town that still retains some of the most well preserved architectural delights dating from the “Belle Epoque” period. Follow your guide on a walking tour in the city and enjoy some free time for personal discovery and lunch.
In the afternoon, depending on your preferences, you will follow the famous Badische wine route and head towards the Black Forest and follow the “Hochstrasse” to admire some of the most breathtaking landscapes of the region.
The Black Forest & the Schwartzwald Hochstrasse
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.
Black Forest gateau and cuckoo clocks originate from this region.The Black Forest Route (Schwartzwald Hochstrasse) is the oldest, and one of the best known, themed drives in Germany. A long time ago this road was used to transport logs. Today, it is one of the most popular routes for tourists because of the beauty of its scenery, landscape, traditional villages and the breathtaking views of the mountains.
The Badische Winestrasse
The Baden wine route stretches for 160 kilometers along the western edge of the Black Forest, from Baden-Baden in the north to Weil am Rhein in the south, and in an additional loop around the areas of Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg.
The vineyard covers 15,500 hectares making it the 3rd largest in Germany. In Baden, red and white wines of great repute flourish. The Blaue Spätburgunder dominates in the category of red wines, while in the category of white wines it is the Müller-Thurgau.
With regard to the other varieties, each winegrower typically specializes in the regional wine: the Riesling is mostly at home in Ortenau, the Markgräflerland is the land of Gutedel and Burgunder-wines like the Ruländer (Pinot gris) and Weißburgunder (Pinot blanc) are mainly cultivated in Breisgau, Kaiserstuhl or Tuniberg.
After the tour, return to Strasbourg.

René Basinski05, Nov 2023We so enjoyed our tour of Freiburg and the Black Forest with Thierry. We learned so many things about Freiburg and saw the beauty of the Black Forest and Lake Titisee. It was such a pleasure to spend another wonderful day with Thierry as our guide.
Would it be possible to forward my contact information to Thierry to reply to me as I would like to send a personal note of thanks and gratitude from me and my friend? Thank you for your assistance.

Shay R20, Sep 2023We took a half day tour to Saint Emilion and absolutely loved it. Our tour guide gave us great information about the wine, the region, and the harvesting process. Early September was an ideal time to go because we actually got to see the harvest happening in real time. Would definitively recommend this tour to anyone who wants to go out and explore the Medieval village.

Nancy A06, Sep 2017The tour was run by Pauline from Ophorus Excursions. She was fabulous. There were 8 of us traveling in a comfortable van equipped with a driver PA system so we could hear everything she said. Her driving was safe. In Baden-Baden we took some time walking through highlights and the central park, then up into the old part of the city. We then drove to the black forest wine region where we stopped at several sights, including a winery. We were gone for 10 hours, but I would have to say that we covered a lot of ground and could have used more time at villages

Rahul Watarkar28, Aug 2016It was a wonderful and enjoyable trip.. the guide was very friendly and warm who also due to
availability of time took a detour to show us a small village on the way to Baden Baden. Overall, a very
relaxing tour.

only have time for one day tour I would highly recommend this one
