Tour description
Located on the Rhine River, at the border of France and Germany, Strasbourg is a city of two cultures and a charming old town, surrounded by canals and anchored by one of Europe's greatest cathedrals. On this walking tour, a local guide will reveal the fascinating history of a city that changed hands many times and is today a capital of the European Union.
You will stand beneath the pink cathedral with its astronomical clock, stroll through cobblestone streets with fairytale half-timbered houses in Petite France, and cross the covered bridges of the old tanners' district. Charming, walkable, and distinctly Franco-German, Strasbourg feels like a fairytale brought to life.
