Tour description

Welcome to Colmar, a medieval gem nestled in the heart of Alsace. I'm Eva, and I'll be your guide on this fascinating tour.

From the moment we meet, I'll invite you to immerse yourself in a city that seems like something out of a fairy tale.

Through its colorful houses, tranquil canals, and medieval architecture, I will show you a part of the world that many have only seen in dreams or heard about in stories.

On this tour, I invite you to take a trip back in time. Imagine being a child again, dreaming of medieval castles and cities steeped in history.

Colmar is the perfect place to relive those dreams. I'll tell you about great artists born here, such as Bartholdi, the creator of the Statue of Liberty, or the painter Hansi, whose work captures the essence of the region.

You'll also see iconic sites like the Tanners' Quarter (where they drew inspiration for the reimagining of "Beauty and the Beast") and learn about the history of Alsatian wines. You'll savor the city's unique atmosphere, where bread, wine, and cheese combine to offer a sensory experience that connects history, culture, and tradition.

This free tour isn't just a walk; it's an invitation to experience history, to feel the magic in every corner.

My goal is for you to take away not only the knowledge, but also the excitement of having lived a unique and enriching experience.

I look forward to making this tour an unforgettable memory!
