Alsace is a fascinating region that for centuries has been influenced by German and French culture and architecture.
Join Shearings’ excursion filled eight day break to discover Alsace’s countryside, cities and history.
The capital city is Strasbourg, a historic place home to many delights including the Grand Ile UNESCO World Heritage Site and a sandstone Gothic Cathedral. Strasbourg is also the joint seat of the European Parliament. A whole range of wines will be available to taste and buy on the renowned Alsace Wine Route that stretches over 37,800 acres and 119 villages.
The ‘The Capital of Wine’ is normally seen as the charming town of Colmar. You will have time at leisure to be charmed by the old town and the canal running through the centre.
Shearings’ choice of accommodation for this coach trip is the Hotel Les Vosges in Klingenthal at the foot of the dramatic Mont Sainte-Odile.
