What to expect

Discover the timeless soul of the Black Forest on this small-group day trip from Strasbourg, traveling in a luxury van with no more than seven guests and an English-speaking guide.

The first stop is Gengenbach, one of Germany's most beautiful towns. Stroll its cobbled streets lined with perfectly preserved half-timbered houses, flower-filled planters, and a charming medieval market square that feels straight out of a fairy tale.

Next, step back in time at the Vogtsbauernhof Open Air Museum, where original farms, mills, and workshops brought from across the region bring centuries of Black Forest rural life back to life. A peaceful and fascinating window into local heritage and traditions.

The day ends at the Mummelsee, a mysterious glacial lake nestled deep in the forest and steeped in legends of water spirits and forest kings. Walk its tranquil trails, sit by its shores, and take in the silence and natural magic of one of the Black Forest's most iconic spots.
