Happy Petite France Free Tour of Strasbourg
♡ Save


Let us show you eminent landmarks of the traditional Petite France district of Strasbourg. Its charming beauty will enchant you and its history will take your breath away.
The Happy Petite France Tour will guide you through the historical district of "La Petite France". An old medieval district, developed through the centuries at the water's edge, Petite France is a pedestrian area where you will stroll through cobblestone streets lined with traditional Alsatian, half-timbered houses between two and five centuries old.
Also, you will discover the remnants of the old fortifications under Louis XIV, to end with a marvelous view of the exceptional buildings, canals and natural sites of Strasbourg.
Meeting point is always in front of the Cathedral, at the corner with rue Mercière. The guide is holding a big ORANGE sign with "HAPPY Free Tour" on it, can't miss him! ;)
