Not interested in adding lunch. Please note that you might not be able to purchase lunch during your day hike.
Regular lunch package each day (8 Euro per day per person)

Not interested in adding dinner. I prefer to order off the regular a la carte menu at the hotel restaurant or other place instead. (Please note closing days of hotel restaurants below)
Yes, I would like to add dinner each night (32 Euro per person)
I would like to add dinner on specific nights (specify below)

On Mondays and Tuesdays: The restaurant of Hotel Waldblick Kniebis is closed for the public. It only offers the menue option for hotel guests, no a la carte ordering.

Black Forest Trail. Are you interested in upgrading your hotels? (additional fee, based on availability)

No interest in upgrading. I am fine with the regular hotels in the package
yes please! Upgrade me if possible. Each hotel upgrade is 40€ per person (please indicate below if there are any special requests, e.g. you only want to upgrade one specific hotel or such). Otherwise we will assume you want to upgrade all hotels when possible

Black Forest Trail. In one of the towns you sometimes have a choice between hotels. Our first hotel is located inside town, the second hotel is located outside of town. Please indicate your preference

The first hotel is simple and clean but spread out over several neighboring buildings in a residential. This hotel often caters to larger groups so it can be busy at times. The hotel has an indoor pool & sauna. In the evening we recommend skipping the hotel restaurant and heading into the town centre instead for a local dinner. (15-minute walk or a 2 minute cab ride)
Our second hotel is located 3 km outside of town in a small farming village. It is a very cozy, quiet and small place -with modern rooms and a good German restaurant popular amongst locals. If you choose our second hotel you are in for a special treat – because the trail taking you to this hotel takes you by 2 historic wolf traps – a rare sight, even for locals.

You are booking a Culinary Tour. Do you have any food allergies or something we need to pay attention to?

We usually tour the Farmers Market in Freiburg first, sampling various local products. What are you interested in sampling? (These are some ideas, so we can adjust the tour according to your preferences)

We usually tour the Farmers Market in Freiburg first sampling various local products. What else are you interest in?
