Suggested Day Trips from Strasbourg
Strasbourg is perfectly positioned for exploring the best of Alsace and neighbouring Germany. A private coach or minibus allows your group to efficiently visit multiple key sites in a single, comfortable day.
Colmar
A full day trip to Colmar is a wonderful excursion. Colmar is famous for its charming half-timbered houses, canals (often called 'Little Venice'), and its distinct Alsatian atmosphere. A private coach ensures a comfortable, direct route, allowing you maximum time to explore the historic centre, shop, and enjoy a traditional meal. This is a very popular destination for groups interested in history and photography. If you prefer staying in Colmar, you can book with us as we also hire coaches in Colmar.
Alsace Wine Route Villages
This excursion is a highlight for many visitors to the region. A coach allows you to hop between several of the most beautiful and famous villages along the Route des Vins d'Alsace, such as Riquewihr, Eguisheim, Kaysersberg, and Ribeauvillé. These picture-postcard villages offer medieval charm, history, and excellent opportunities for wine tasting. Since these villages are small and often busy, having a private driver who manages all the parking logistics makes this day effortless and enjoyable.
Europa Park
For school groups, families, or corporate incentive trips, a day at Europa Park in Rust, Germany, is a guaranteed success. Located just across the border, this large theme park is easily accessible by coach from Strasbourg. A dedicated transfer ensures your group arrives promptly when the park opens and is collected directly after closing, avoiding the hassle of public transportation or coordinating multiple vehicles.
Black Forest and Freiburg
Germany Strasbourg's proximity to Germany makes a day trip to the Black Forest and the beautiful city of Freiburg im Breisgau very feasible. Freiburg offers a charming historic centre, famous for its small canals (Bächle) and its impressive Gothic Münster. The journey into the nearby Black Forest allows your group to experience a different culture and landscape, offering scenic views and a break from urban life.
The Magic of Christmas Markets
Strasbourg and the surrounding Alsatian villages are globally famous for their magical Christmas markets in December. This is the busiest time of year for coach hire in the region. Groups often book minibuses or coaches to discover the unique atmosphere of markets like those in Colmar or Riquewihr. Due to extremely high demand, we strongly recommend that groups interested in this unique experience book their coach service as early as possible, ideally several months in advance, as local operators are often fully booked by September or October.
