5Gems of Alsace tour
Francesco was an outstanding guide for the Gems of Alsace tour. Although he is on the younger side, he brought a remarkably deep knowledge of the region, its history, villages, wines, and culture. He answered every question thoughtfully and added context that made each stop far more meaningful. He was also super personable, outgoing, and easy to talk with throughout the day. He struck a great balance between sharing information and giving us time to explore on our own. He kept the group organized without ever making the day feel rushed or overly structured. The villages, wine route, and Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle were all wonderful, but Francesco truly elevated the experience. He clearly takes pride in showing visitors the best of Alsace. We would happily recommend this tour—and especially Francesco—to anyone visiting the region.
1Not a Consumer Oriented Operator
I booked this tour 6 months ahead and was fully aware that it could be cancelled if the required number of passengers was not met. Accordingly, I regularly checked the availability on the chosen date to see if the tour had achieved the necessary number of passengers. For a long time it said 7 spaces were still available but about one month out it stated there was no availability on this date. I assumed that this meant all seats had been booked and hence the tour was a go. Therefore I was extremely disappointed to be told 3 days before the tour was to depart that it had been cancelled because the required number of participants had not been met. Well no kidding - if anyone had wanted to book this date they would have found no availability. One might be justified in assuming that the operator had no intention of running the tour on this date. But then why not simply cancel the tour and leave me more to make alternative arrangements? This operator, Ophorus, is being disingenuous. Beware!

5A Magical Day
A fabulous small tour, our guide was excellent, friendly, knowledgeable and fun. The towns visited were beautiful, like a Disney movie set but real and stunning. The castle was amazing, would highly recommend this tour
5Francesco was an...
Francesco was an outstanding tour leader: professional, friendly, supportive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made every effort to ensure we had a memorable experience and always felt well looked after. Even though the tour could accommodate up to eight people, only the two of us booked at the last minute. Rather than cancelling or scaling back the experience, Francesco made us feel special and provided a personalised tour. The villages we visited and places we went and we wouldn’t know about if not for his recommendation, were stunning, full of charm and character, and are an absolute must-see. Highly recommended! PS: We learned a lot of details about wines and wine making process because of his wealth of knowledge and experience.

About Colmar
Colmar, in Alsace, is a half-timbered wine town of flower-lined canals and pastel houses, set between the Vosges mountains and the Rhine.
Colmar's old town is a compact maze of half-timbered houses with steep gables, painted in blues, pinks and ochres, around the Church of St Martin. The Maison des Têtes, covered in carved faces, and the Pfister House are among the finest. In Petite Venise, flower-hung houses stand along the Lauch river, and flat-bottomed boats glide beneath the bridges. Auguste Bartholdi, the sculptor of the Statue of Liberty, was born in Colmar.
Top-ranked sights in Colmar: Little Venice (Petite Venise), Unterlinden Museum (Musee Unterlinden), St. Martin's Church (Eglise St-Martin).
