For an hour, Antoine, your passionate guide, will take you to the heart of the Capital of Christmas in silence and without polluting. The tour begins at Place Broglie, home to the Christkindelsmärik, the oldest Christmas market in France. You will then head to the cathedral and its market, and then admire the Grand Sapin (Great Christmas Tree) in Place Kléber and the illuminated Petite France. Antoine will also show you a secret Christmas market, away from the crowds.
Throughout the tour, your guide will share Alsatian Christmas traditions, anecdotes about the city, and recommendations for the best restaurants, bars, and things to do for the rest of your stay.
The tour is private: it's just you and your guide on board. It is suitable for everyone, from couples to families with a child, as well as for people who prefer to avoid long walks in the cold. A hot drink and a souvenir photo are provided.
