Our excursion today takes us to Freiburg. This bustling university town lies close to the French and Swiss borders. During the day we have included a visit the World of Badischer Winzerkeller with a guided tour and wine tasting.

Today's excursion is to Schonach – home of the largest cuckoo clock factory in The Black Forest. The first cuckoo clock was created here in the heart of the Black Forest. Afterwards we visit Triberg, set against a romantic landscape with the highest waterfall in Germany.

Our final Excursion of our stay is to Strasbourg - headquarters of the European Parliament. With its monumental cathedral featuring carvings as delicate as any piece of lacework, Strasbourg is one of Europe’s most attractive cities.
