Germany · WINE TOURS IN STUTTGART
German summer weekends and the Christmas-market weeks sell out early, and the best wine tours in Stuttgart go first. Below are the 7 to get into the diary now, what each includes and where they differ.
Join guides such as Werner or Sascha for a two-hour covered-wagon ride from Münster along the Neckar to Mühlhausen. You’ll see Max-Eyth-Lake, steep vineyard slopes, and river scenery, then taste five local wines with water and small salty snacks. The tour runs in German, with private groups available.
Spend 210 minutes hiking Stuttgart’s Steinhalde vineyards with an English- or German-speaking guide in traditional clothing. Taste five regional wines, including Cannstatter Zuckerle, enjoy water and snacks, and take part in lighthearted wine games. Expect steep slopes and stairs, with meeting details varying by booking option.
“It was really fun. The tour guide was so nice and friendly! Games were fun and the wine was tasty. It’s a great way to socialize and see the vineyards.”
I will guide you through three changing regional wines at Stuttgart Wine Museum: one white, one red, and one rosé. You will taste 0.1 liters of each with salami, olives, cheese, and bread while learning about local grapes, wineries, and viticulture. The tour lasts one hour and is conducted in German only.
Spend 150 minutes walking Stuttgart’s vineyard trails with a German-speaking guide, stopping twice for local wine and a snack. Andrea has helped English-speaking guests along the route, but English is not guaranteed. Bring water and wear sturdy shoes, since the hills are not suitable for limited mobility.
Spend three hours with a guide such as Felix in Stuttgart’s vineyards, tasting five regional wines between playful team and solo games. Water, snacks, and nonalcoholic options are available, with vegan food on request. The route is wheelchair accessible, reachable from the main station in about 14 minutes by subway, and includes city views and group photos.
“Felix was an amazing guide! Excellent knowledge about wine and the area. Games were fun, very good selection of wine and over all just a good time. He made sure we had enough water and shade as well. Thank you Felix! Would recommend!”
Meet your German-speaking guide in Fellbach for a shared or private vineyard walk on Stuttgart’s Herzogenberg. Taste three VDP wines from Hans Peter Wöhrwag and Aldinger wineries at two stops, enjoy a Swabian snack, and visit an original Wengerterhäusle while taking in views of Stuttgart and the Württemberg burial chapel.
“Wunderschöne Tour durch die Weinberge - gerne wieder.”
Meet guide Alfred in Stuttgart-Uhlbach for a 150-minute walk through Stuttgart’s vineyard hills. Taste two local sparkling wines, a Secco, and a small snack at a Weinberghäusle. The tour is in German. English help may be possible with Tobi, who translated for one recent group.
“We had such a wonderful tour with Alfred who was very knowledgeable in the local agriculture and history of wine in this region & world. He was also very fun and made everyone on the tour feel welcome plus comfortable. We had our German to English translator, young Tobi who was very fluent, timely and professional. He kept in time with Alfred’s explanations. They worked very well together. If you very need a translator, be sure to ask for Tobi! After the tour we attended the wine event, which made a perfect wrap. Needless to say we bought 6 bottles of wine to take back to London 😀👍”
A city, a river, a castle ridge, a brewery.
