Let us take care of the planning – While you experience the Black Forest

simone at black forest toursGreetings from the Black Forest! My name is Simone and I am a native German (native Black Forest girl that is). After living abroad for more than 15 years I returned home to the Black Forest. I wanted to share The Black Forest in a local and low-impact way. The Black Forest is a bit resistant to tourism, and that is a good thing. 80% of The Black Forest is inaccessible to non-Germans. Its part of what makes The Black Forest so special. So instead of mass-tours, I offer unique English-speaking Black Forest experiences…. MORE

At Black Forest Tours we cater to English-speaking travelers who want to see the real Black Forest, as only locals can. We make sure you don’t feel like a tourist but rather like a friend who is visiting. Everyone is unique and your visit to The Black Forest will be unique too. 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 – so that you can experience The Black Forest like a local.

We work with an extensive network of locals to make your visit to the Black Forest a memorable experience. Whether you are a solo visitor or a small group, we can create a wonderful experience for you. 

If you feel a bit overwhelmed planning, or running short on time to plan, have concerns about the German language, German menus and German customs, you are in good company. With Black Forest Tours you have the freedom to do your own thing while having us around to guide you when needed… READ SOME TESTIMONIALS

"A tourist goes to places other tourists write about, gathering information provided by other tourists, and only sees the places other tourists have been to." Such a tour is not the same as an experience. Experience The Black Forest with a local. Experience it like a local.

Great trip to the Black Forest

"Great trip. We never would have been able to put it all together without Simone's help. Her trail notes were extremely detailed and helpful and it was so nice to have the lodging and luggage transfer taken care of. We loved the trails and never got lost. Beautiful scenery and towns!"

Loved it

"Too much good to elaborate. Such rich history, from the railroad trussel, Antique water powered wood mill, coo coo clocks, hand blown glass, & beautiful ravine with hundreds of waterfalls.

We were there with a Viking Tour & only had 2 hours. We will return & spend the whole day there !!!"
