We were staying in a vacation rental north of Lyon while attending the Women’s World Cup and had initially wanted to take a Beaujolais Wine Tour on one of the off-days. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find a tour or private tour guide that wasn’t already booked. As a result, we moved further North and started looking at Burgundy wine tours. Luckily by-chance, we booked The Wines of Burgundy Day Tour with Pieter Smits. We had a wonderful tour with Pieter as we visited several villages, chateaus, and wineries. Not only were we able to sample some fine wines but Pieter also selected a restaurant where we had a great lunch. Pieter is very engaging and knowledgeable which helped make the tour very enjoyable. It's an experience I will always remember.

Once you've visited Colmar in a day this is a great way to visit some of the surrounding villages that are all really pretty. Quite a lot of walking involved to explore the different areas. I imagine that in the summer it gets very busy. We were lucky as it was sunny and quiet with a group of 5. Thanks Ivan for your patience and to try and answer all our questions. Pick up at the hotel at 9h and returned around 17h. A full day out.

I would highly recommend this company. He was very prepared and on time and knew exactly how to make our itinerary happen. We visited Colmar and several other towns we had requested, the towns, the Christmas Markets and then had dinner in a traditional Winestub, not known by tourists and the food was amazing! He was not in a rush and we enjoyed all we could! The car was impecable cleaned but the most it can comfortably sit is 3 adults. Highly recommend!

We were staying in Strasbourg for a few days at Christmas and wanted to find a way to see Christmas markets in other cities with out renting a car and this seemed to be a good way to do it. Spouse and I were picked up on schedule, along with seven other people in a 15 person Mercedes van. Our driver, Martin, was courteous and a good drive. Over the course of 9.5 hours, we saw three French markets. In total, we spent six hours touring markets and the remainder of the time traveling. While we accomplished our goal of visiting other Christmas markets outside Strasbourg, I feel the price ($226 for two people) was too high. If I had to do it over again, I would buy a much cheaper train ticket from Strasbourg to Colmar and forget about the other two stops.

Myself and 4 friends spent the day with Colin visiting 4 vineyards, 3 in France and 1 in Germany. We tasted 27 different wines and had a lunch stop in the middle. Each place we visited was different so we learnt something new at each stop. Colin was knowledgeable and gave us plenty of additional information along the way. He was also really easy going and a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely recommend this tour ????

Great trip! A good balance between wine tasting, sightseeing trough the vineyards and beautiful villages. Our guide was well known with the region, wine production and the taste of wine. Also nice that we only visited organic / bio winemakers. This tour is highly recommended if you prefer small scale wineries and love an intimate tour around the Alsace area.

Highly recommend this tour, if you're a lover of white wine in general. The guide, florence, took us to some really breathtaking places and introduced us to the very inspiring wine grower. Not only did we learn a lot, we managed to have a very intimate experience throughout the alsance wine region.
