Colmar

Two-day rail escape to Colmar's half-timbered houses and wine region

Illustration of Colmar

railtour suisse operates this two-day, one-night escape to Colmar, a medieval town in the Alsatian wine region of France. Travellers receive return 2nd-class rail travel and lodging in a four-star hotel. Colmar's cobbled streets and half-timbered houses line canals you can explore by boat, and the town serves as the capital of Alsatian wine, sitting on the Alsace Wine Route, a 170-kilometre tourist road. Art lovers will find the Isenheim Altarpiece, a 16th-century polyptych by Matthias Grünewald and Nicholas of Haguenau, restored in 2022 and displayed in the Musée Unterlinden. The package suits couples, history enthusiasts, and food-and-wine travellers seeking an affordable long weekend without a lengthy itinerary commitment.
