Best Airport for Travelling to Alsace

by Andrea
(PA, USA)

Would you fly into Zurich or Frankfurt?

Which towns would you use as your base for sightseeing? (The last time we were there we stayed in Colmar and Strasbourg and then in Baden Baden, Germany before returning to Zurich)

We loved Alsace and want to make the most of our time there!

Thank you so much for your help!!!

Andrea

The Best Airports for Travelling to Alsace
by: Suzele

Hi Andrea,

I think you can get a better deal flying into Frankfurt because it is such a big airport hub, but if you can find something going into Basel/Mulhouse Euro airport for a good price, take it because it is the largest airport in Alsace.

Frankfurt is 2 to 3 hours from Alsace. But you could take the Deutsche Bahn from there to Alsace. There is a train station at the airport.

I've personally never found anything for a good price flying into Zurich, but you never know...

From the Euro airport you are only 30 minutes from Colmar which is about in the middle of Alsace.

For most people Colmar is a good base. Obernai or Selestat could be as well, but they are smaller.

Or you could stay in a village on the wine road and drive around on your own.


Hope you have a great trip!

Flying into Basel
by: Tom - Riverside CA

We got a very good rate on a British Airways flight from LAX (Los Angeles) to Basel through Heathrow.

It was actually cheaper than flying only to Heathrow or Paris. Go figure???

We did have to change planes in Heathrow, but it was no problem. We rented a car at the Basel airport from Hertz.
