A day from your tour

We start the day with a ferry ride over Lake Constance to Mainau Island. The island is kept as a flower garden with seasonal displays, a butterfly house and magnificent views of the lake.

We will enjoy free time and lunch on the island before catching the ferry to the mainland village of Meersburg, a beautiful and historic place for you to explore.

We top off this glorious day with a visit to an apple farm along the lake shore where we enjoy a tasting experience.

Return to our hotel to relax before our evening meal is served.

Customers love

Visiting a very interesting farm in the hills of the Black Forest where the owner as well as still being active in livestock farming, has diversified and now has a bakery, a distillery and has developed an outlet for the producers of many local artisan foods. He has also converted some old farm buildings into holiday accommodation. It would be rude not to have lunch here!

More tours that may interest you

We were very impressed with the tour. The organisation and content

exceeded our expectations.

The effort you put into ensure everything went so smoothly did not go unnoticed. This was the first fully escorted tour we have been on but when we arrived home the most important piece of post waiting for us was the Bay Farm Tours brochure, so we have already started

planning the next one!
