Through Alsace Vineyards and Wine Villages Private Bike Tour
Description
Glenn Ford and his team have organised guided cycling tours in Alsace since 1994. Cycling along carefully selected itineraries, through medieval wine villages and Grand Cru Vineyards, you get a true insight into Alsace along with a selection of legends, local stories and gossip. It's always wonderful to end our tour with a splendid wine tasting in our home village of Voegtlinshoffen. Glenn was awarded a Bronze Medal for Tourism by the French Republic in 2015. Cheers!

After cycling through renowned Alsace Grand Cru Vineyards it's always nice to end our tour with a full wine tasting at a local winery in our home village of Voegtlinshoffen. I reckon it produces some of the best white wines and crémants in the world!

Glenn is a lovely person and we had a wonderful time cycling, chatting, and learning from him. If you are on the fence - do this tour!
What an amazing and unique experience! Glenn was an outstanding guide who is clearly passionate about and proud of this beautiful region. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the tour both informative and enjoyable, and we learned so much from him. The bikes were comfortable, well-maintained, and perfect for a scenic ride through the countryside. The wine tasting at the end was a wonderful way to finish the experience, and it was exciting to recognize some of the wines later at restaurants during the rest of our trip. This was such a special experience that we will never forget. Glenn is truly a one-of-a-kind gentleman, and this tour was one of the highlights of our visit!
Many thanks! So pleased you enjoyed the tour. It was a great pleasure for me, too.
Glen was a fantastic guide. We cycled through a number of stunning villages along the Alsace wine trail. Glen was a wealth of information and thankfully he supplied us with water, and ebikes! We were there during a heat wave but the breeze generated going down the hills was wonderful. Afterwards Glen took us to the Cottin Winery where we were able to try different wines from the region. Yum! I highly recommend this tour
Thanks Brenda! What a lovely review!! Merci!!!
Glenn was great! Beautiful ride through Alsace villages and vineyards! Perfect for all levels of riders.
Many thanks Bernard!
The cycling should not be a problem for someone used to cycling. The e-bikes are in excellent condition but the trip required some fitness. The wine tasting is amazing. Glenn is extremely friendly and accommodating. We are already planning our next one. Route is very safe. Lunch and a walk around Eguisheim after the tour made this a wonderful day out. We will definitely do it again.
That’s great! It was a pleasure!!
The equipment is suitable and well maintained. Our guide introduced us to the region in a different way through the vineyards. We did not see the time pass...
Merci beaucoup ! C'est super !
This was a scenic bike ride through beautiful vineyards in the Alsace region that, throughout the entire ride, offered amazing views. Glen provided his in-depth historical knowledge of the region and the specific sites and vineyards seen up close on the tour. He was also very gracious and took us through a wine tasting at the end. This was my favorite thing I have done in the 2 weeks I have been in France and would easily recommend this to anyone visiting Alsace.
Brilliant! Merci beaucoup Philipe!!!
