Experience The Black Forest like a Local.
Black Forest Tours is a local agency catering solely to English-speaking visitors planning a stay in the Black Forest and surrounding area of Switzerland and Alsace.
With a focus on incoming travel from abroad we work with an extensive network of local partners to make your visit to the Black Forest memorable.
If you don’t see yourself on a bus with 50 other people, hitting every tourist spot whether you like it or not, you have found the right partner. At Black Forest Tours we listen to your wants and needs, then provide options from which you can choose what to see and at a pace appropriate for you.
My name is Simone and I am a native German (native Black Forest Girl that is).
I will make sure you don’t feel like a tourist but rather like a friend who is visiting. Read more…
Many visitors ask if we offer any bus tours or group tours they can join. The answer is no – all our tours are private tours. There are no regular scheduled tours. And nobody joins someone elses tour. Each tour is customized to your groups’ needs.
We offer several tours, depending on your particular travel style. You can book a private guide to show you around the Black Forest region. Or tour with a driver, who takes you on a driving tour with pre-arranged stops. We also offer hiking tours, either with a guide or on your own. Please contact us if you can’t find what you are looking for.
Good to know:
- Group sizes range from 1 person to larger groups of up to 6, sometimes 8 people.
- Black Forest tours generally start from Freiburg or Offenburg. Visitors staying in other towns (Zurich, Basel, Strasbourg, Colmar, Baden-Baden, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Heidelberg or Munich) usually take the train to the Black Forest where we meet them at the train station.
- If you are arriving on a river cruise in Breisach we pick you up at your cruise ship.
- We also offer tours from Europa-Park.
- If you have any special requests, please ask
See you soon in the Black Forest!
