Colmar - the fairytale! - A wonderful tour with Francois around Colmar. He was knowledgeable about the history and the “legends” of the area and really good fun. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend Francois, one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had.

Wonderful Experience - Loved it! Peak is a wealth of information about the locals, history and details of the buildings, store signs, woodwork, everything. Tailors to your interests, easy to meet up with. She told us about the mayor and we saw him the next morning twice. She also helped our hungry family of 5 get settled into dinner prior to leaving. This tour was fantastic.

Super romantic town - Our local host gave us an amazing experience in Colmar. From little romantic sidestreets to the more popular hotspots - we got to see Colmar from a different perspective. Highly recommend to book this tour. It's more than the touristy spots. Good vibes only!

Wonderful tour! - Our giude Peak was wonderful. She reached out to us beforehand to find out what we wanted out of the tour and catered the tour to our interests. Peak has a good knowledge of the history of Colmar and the surrounding areas. An excellent tour for both first timers to the area and returning guests.

Easy Way To See Colmar - We were met by Leo at the appointed time and place. We enjoyed a leisurely walk through the old town seeing all of its beautiful architecture and historic sites. We ended the tour in Rapp Park eliminating our need to double back. Leo has a good command of English and was professional. After the tour he sent us a text with restaurant and shopping recommendations. We would tour with him again.

Danish delights - Our 60-minute exploration of Copenhagen with guide, Mia, was a wonderful experience. She shared her love for the city as we strolled through the picturesque streets and stopped at iconic sites like Nyhavn and the Little Mermaid statue. Mia also gave us excellent recommendations for local restaurants and attractions to visit later. A great way to get a feel for the city in just one hour!

Not much history of Colmar - Lady was very nice but not very informative. Didn’t learn much history about Colmar. Mainly learned what we could see and read in the signs. Thinking she was not a history buff.
