Soak up Alsatian heritage in this quaint French-German town’s medieval streets. Experience the magic of GPS playback on this self-guided tour of Colmar. Colmar is just as pretty as its big sister Strasbourg and maybe even more quaint. On this walking tour through the medieval centre, known as Little Venice (“La Petite Venise de Colmar”), you’ll get plenty of opportunities to take in its historic beauty because of its many canals. While you walk, I’ll tell you about Colmar’s interesting past, during which Germany and France took turns shaping the city’s culture. Today, the Alsace region, part French and part German, has developed its traditions and specialities. I’ll give you plenty of ideas on where to stop for coffee, beer, crêpes, flammkuchen or other yummy snacks. You’ll also stroll through the Quartier des Tanneurs, the tanners’ district, and past Ancienne Douane, a pretty square lined with historic homes.
