I found it a fantastic experience. They have guided us very well through all the towns and have provided great advice. I would repeat at another time of the year to see the color of the flowers. If possible, increase the number of guides in Spanish during the year. Thank you

We had a wonderful time and got to see so much more of the Alsace area than I thought we would! We saw collar but my favorite sites were the smaller villages. Our guide, Laurent, was lovely and very knowledgeable.
