Fun, Informative and Full of Surprises - We loved the surprises, interesting information and easy to follow instructions. The gifts were a great idea and so much fun! The little man adorning the archway hiding a secret, the support pillar for measuring whether the city officials are getting too fat - spiced up the commentary and kept us entertained.

Definitely worth it. - I loved being able to go at our own pace and pop into stores or museums if we feel like it. With live guided tours you can’t do that. We also loved the prizes and the interesting facts and details. The voice was very clear, easy to understand and I liked being able to read it as well. The owner communicated with me via WhatsApp and gave me great suggestions for parking. We loved it so much we used the same app for Strasbourg the next day.

Excellent app - You can tell that this app has been created by people who know Colmar and Strasbourg, and who have put a lot of effort into its design. We had great fun wandering around the city, solving the puzzles and discovering the buildings are areas. The tour includes the main Christmas markets, so we were able to both enjoy the tour and take breaks at the markets. Highly recommended.

Relaxed city tour with gifts - A varied way to explore the city at your own pace. There is also a little quiz and a small gift every now and then. I would definitely recommend it

Nice tour on my own rhythm - Really nice tour made on my own rhythm. I did not successfully complete it because I also wanted to get lost on the beautiful streets. Congratulations for the idea. I read in one comment that the tour is overpriced. I really appreciate someone prepared the small gifts, carefully packed them, and also the mobile app which was created on purpose for this tour. The idea and the effort should be rewarded for sure.

Highly Recommend! - My husband and I took this tour and our guide, Loubna, was fantastic! She made sure to tell us the history of the locations we visited, introduced us to amazing cuisine, and gave us a spectacular tour. I absolutely would recommend both her and this tour to anyone. She was prompt, professional, and even told us some of her other favorite restaurants and shops in the area after the tour ended. Thanks for such a great experience!

Best way to tour Colmar - A great way to tour the city at your own pace. We stopped for ice cream, water, lunch etc. along the way, so it was hard to say how long the tour really was. You probably could blast through it in 3 hours. But it allows you to go into museums and cathedrals along your route. A very detailed tour and some fun with quizzes and prizes along to way. Would recommend 100%.

Cool idea for families - It was a great motivation for the children (11 and 14 years old) to take part in a city tour like this. The app is great and it was great fun. We took our time and split the tour into two days. The gifts in the backpack are debatable - I'm not really into souvenirs, so I would have preferred fewer and a cheaper price.
