    Jeff S 10, Dec 2025 No wonder Colmar is called the Christmas Capital of the world. Its traditional and lively decorations all over the town simply blew us away. It’s definitely the winner of our five city Christmas markets tour. The guide Camille is wonderful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!!

    Amy P 04, Dec 2025 This was a wonderful tour to Colmar and Riquewihr. Our guide was wonderful and kept us on time. I could go back and spend a few days in Colmar but this was a great way to get an initial glimpse of the town and its Christmas magic. Highly recommend in lieu of the overcrowded buses.

    Pamela O 01, Dec 2024 Our guide chose the perfect markets outside of Strasbourg to visit. I han't even heard of the little town/market we ended our day, and I'm quite sure it will be my favorite Xmas market of all visited while in Europe.

    Carlise 01, Dec 2023 I had a great time! We went to Riquewihr and Colmar. I LOVED Riquewihr. The town was so
    cute and they had one merchant selling “Peter’s best” Glühwein/Vin Chaud. It was
    incredible! Colmar was also super cute!

    Laura F 15, Dec 2019 Awesome trip!
    I really enjoyed this trip! Laurent was our guide and he was fantastic! He would tell us interesting info on the way, other places near Strasbourg to visit, etc. And then at each town he would tell us some of his favorite spots to visit.

    There was plenty of time to explore/shop/eat in both towns, despite the traffic, and we got back to Strasbourg with plenty of time before dinner! And both towns were quite beautiful. Would definitely recommend this tour!!

    Tanto si eres fan de la Navidad como si no, el encanto de esta zona en la época preña ideal es
    indiscutible. Estrasburgo es un punto de partida ideal ya que por si sola la ciudad merece la pena.
