Set out to discover the Eguisheim and Rouffach region on a tour that immerses you in its heritage, vineyard landscapes, and traditions. Accompanied by a passionate guide, you’ll explore the treasures of this Alsatian region while enjoying commentary that brings its history and identity to life.
The highlight of the day is a guided tour of the Schauenberg Chapel, one of the iconic sites of the Alsatian wine region. Perched high above the vineyards, this pilgrimage site stands as a true testament to the region’s religious and cultural history. Your guide will reveal the chapel’s origins, the history of the pilgrimage to Notre-Dame du Schauenberg, and the traditions that still make this sanctuary famous today. The tour continues with a guided walk through Gueberschwihr, a charming village with picturesque narrow streets and remarkable architectural heritage.
After this immersion in local history, it’s time for some socializing with an aperitif tasting hosted by the winemakers partnering with the Pays d’Eguisheim and Rouffach Tourist Office and Les Sources de Soultzmatt. You’ll also have the pleasure of taking home a glass engraved with the image of the Train Gourmand du Vignoble—an original souvenir of the day. To extend the experience, a “Special TGV” menu can be reserved at partner restaurants.
Let yourself be charmed by this getaway that combines heritage, spirituality, vineyard landscapes, and fine dining. An authentic experience offering a unique way to discover the Eguisheim and Rouffach region.
