From the hills of Obernai to the villages of Riquewihr and Eguisheim, the Wine Route is best discovered without taking the wheel. Your chauffeur drives you from village to estate, at your own pace, and brings you back safely.
The booking form and the rest of the website are in French; the French version prevails. You can also book by phone, WhatsApp or e-mail at reservation@e-cab-service.fr.

One hundred and seventy kilometres of vineyards
Created in 1953, the Alsace Wine Route winds for some 170 kilometres from Marlenheim to Thann, at the foot of the Vosges. It runs through villages decked with flowers and renowned terroirs, including the 51 Alsace grands crus. Our head office in Andlau lies at the heart of its Bas-Rhin section.
With a chauffeur, you enjoy the scenery and the encounters without worrying about the road, parking in the villages or the journey home.

What we do, and what we don’t
E-CAB SERVICE provides passenger transport with a chauffeur. You put together your programme and book your visits, tastings and meals yourself with the estates and venues; we adapt the journeys and times.
We do not sell stays, tours or tourist packages: we are not a travel agency. Our concierge service can help you arrange a booking, which you then make directly with the venue.
Ideas for stops
In the north: Obernai, Barr, Mittelbergheim, Andlau and Mont Sainte-Odile. In the centre: Dambach-la-Ville, the Haut-Koenigsbourg, Ribeauvillé, Riquewihr and Kaysersberg. In the south: Colmar, Turckheim and Eguisheim. Your chauffeur advises you on driving times between each stop.
Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health; please drink in moderation.
A typical day
Your chauffeur collects you from your hotel in Strasbourg or Colmar mid-morning. First stop at an estate where you have booked a visit, then lunch in a winstub in a neighbouring village. In the afternoon, a second stop, a stroll through a fortified village, and back to your hotel at the end of the day.
The programme remains yours: we work out the driving times, suggest the smoothest order of stops and adjust the timings if a visit runs over, within the agreed chauffeur-at-disposal time.
