Alsace Tours
The Alsace is located in Eastern France and borders Germany. That means architecture and other aspects of life here are influenced by both French and German culture. Its main city (Strasbourg) is the eighth largest urban area in France and about a two-hour drive from Paris. At Minibus Hire France, we provide minibuses and coaches for hire to travellers who are planning their Alsace tours.
When to Schedule Alsace Tours
Did you know the city of Strasbourg is also known as the “Capitol of Christmas”? It’s considered a good Christmas market in Europe. It’s an old market that dates back to 1570. Most of our clients visit Alsace in November and December because of the popularity of the Christmas markets here. You may want to travel in the company of your family or friends during your visit.
You can also visit the region in the summer and autumn months. This period comes with mild weather and lower travel costs. Keep in mind that the capital and other places of interest are often crowded during the peak season. We recommend that you visit Alsace in November when the Christmas markets first open to avoid crowds.
Perhaps you are visiting Paris or other French cities and decide to spend some time in the Christmas markets of Alsace. Our company can provide a minibus or coach so you and your companions can head to Alsace. If you choose to stay here for a few days or a week, you’ll need a hotel or somewhere to stay. Our driver and client support team can help you compare Eguisheim and other areas where you can stay during your tour.
One tour you and your companions don’t want to miss is the Route des Vins d'Alsace (wine route) that stretches 105 miles (170 km) from Marlenheim to Thann. You and your companions will pass through over 70 wine villages. There are castles to explore here. Examples include the Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle and Fleckenstein Castle.
Alsace is beautiful. And the best way to explore the region is to hire our minibuses or coaches and ensure everyone travels safely and in comfort.
