Tour Guides and Accommodations in Alsace

Hi!! I also love Alsace! (Though I've not been there.. yet!!) :)

I am visiting Europe from Singapore in April or May and intending to end my holiday in Paris then from there, visit a few places.

One of them is Alsace. I want to visit the villages, especially Colmar, Eguisheim and Riquewihr.

Do you know of any good tour guides that can pick us up from our Paris hotel and bring us to Alsace for a 2 or 3 days tour and drop off at our hotel in Paris. I have been searching for tour guides but can't find any good ones.

And also, are you able to recommend accommodations? I love charming old century houses and rooms. Something like these this one here...

A lovely gite in Riquewihr

Hope to hear from you soon :)
Thanks!

Tour Guides and Accommodation in Alsace
by: Suzele

Hi Jean,

Sorry but I don't know of any tour guides that are available to drive you from Paris to your hotel, BUT...

You can take the TGV from Paris to Strasbourg. It's a few hours. FASTER than driving!!

From Strasbourg, you have a choice of taking the train to Colmar and then taking a taxi or renting a car.

You can also do it from Strasbourg of course.

There are very few English tour guides in Alsace. I'm one of the few and I'm rarely available for 2 or 3 days at short notice.

Of course I'm not satisfied with just going to the well known crowded villiages. I also like to show people the parts of Alsace that most tour guides don't know much about.

I'm just a curious person at heart and I can't leave any part of Alsace unexplored. As you can see I love sharing that with others! : )

Regarding accommodation in Alsace, I'm in the middle of building a directory of hotels in the more interesting villages in Alsace.

You'll find information about accommodation AND I've included nearby day trips both popular and off the beaten path ones!

Hopefully it will help you and anyone else looking for a hotel or bed and breakfast to find out about all the other interesting things to do in Alsace that aren't always mentioned...

Your gites look absolutely lovely. I'm sure you'll have a great time!

And please let me know how it went!

Hope it helps,
Suzele
