Journey to Freiburg, Germany
Leave the enchanting Alsace region behind as you embark on a scenic drive to southern Germany. Discover the captivating town of Freiburg, renowned for its ancient university, medieval minster (Cathedral), cobbled plazas, and commitment to environmental sustainability. Explore the town's main monuments and landmarks on a guided walking tour, followed by some free time to explore at your own pace.
Freiburg offers more than just stunning architecture; its charming old quarter boasts delightful features such as Bächle, narrow water channels running alongside the pavements. Don't miss the historical town hall square, adorned with the statue of Berthold Schwarz, the Franciscan Monk credited with the invention of gunpowder.
Immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere of the annual Christmas Market, and savor the local cuisine and refreshing beverages at the renowned beer gardens and breweries.
Afterward, embark on a scenic drive through the Black Forest, a majestic wooded mountain range with its famous pine trees. Marvel at the stunning landscapes as you pass through charming mountain villages and enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the region's lakes and peaks.
Uncover the Magic of the Black Forest
The Black Forest is not only famous for its natural beauty but also for inspiring the tales of the Brothers Grimm, including the beloved story of Hansel and Gretel. Discover the birthplace of the world-renowned cuckoo clocks and indulge in local delicacies such as cured meats and the irresistible Black Forest cake.
If you have a passion for wine, we can organize a wine tasting session at a carefully selected winery in the area. Simply inform your guide in the morning, and they will make the necessary arrangements.
At the conclusion of your tour, we will return you to Colmar, leaving you with unforgettable memories of your exploration through the captivating Black Forest and Freiburg.
