Program & Itinerary
Private Walking Tour of Strasbourg: Explore Petite France, Cathedral & Historic Landmarks
Discover Strasbourg’s Grande Île with a certified guide on a private walking tour through this UNESCO World Heritage site. Immerse yourself in the city’s rich history.
Explore the charming pedestrian areas, Gothic cathedral, Petite France neighborhood, and many other iconic landmarks such as Maison Kammerzell, Place Gutenberg, St. Thomas Church, Place Kléber, Vauban Dam, the Covered Bridges, and more.
Convenient Pick-Up by Your Guide
Your private tour begins with pick-up directly at your centrally located hotel or accommodation in Strasbourg. If you’re arriving from outside the city, we’ll arrange a convenient meeting point to connect with your guide for a seamless start to your adventure.
The Cathedral of Our Lady
Start your 3-hour private walking tour at the magnificent Notre Dame Cathedral. Built of red sandstone, this Gothic masterpiece was described by Victor Hugo as a “gigantic and delicate marvel.” Accompanied by your expert guide, you’ll discover the intricate façade adorned with hundreds of sculptures that create an enchanting play of light and shadow.
Inside, marvel at the exquisite stained-glass windows dating back to the 12th and 14th centuries, along with the impressive rose window. The highlight of the cathedral is the Renaissance astronomical clock, built in 1843, which features an orrery, a planetary calendar, and a mechanical rooster.
Make sure to catch the daily show at 12:30 when the rooster crows and a procession of apostles appears. Please note: audio headset rental for the cathedral visit is included.
Exploring the Old Town & Petite France District
After the cathedral, your guide will lead you through the heart of Strasbourg’s old town to the enchanting Petite France district. Once home to mills and tanneries, this picturesque area is now a highlight of the city, with its charming 16th and 17th-century half-timbered houses. Your guide will point out iconic sites like the Maison des Tanneurs as you stroll along the cobbled streets.
Vauban Dam & Covered Bridges
Continue your journey to the impressive Vauban Dam and the Covered Bridges. The Vauban Dam, a remarkable piece of 17th-century engineering, offers a panoramic view of the city’s fortified bridges and the three medieval towers that remain from Strasbourg's ancient defense system.
These historical structures provide insight into the city’s strategic importance and architectural heritage.
Place Kléber & Place Gutenberg
Your guide will also take you to Strasbourg’s vibrant squares, Place Kléber and Place Gutenberg. Place Kléber, the city’s main square, is surrounded by shops, cafes, and elegant architecture, making it a lively hub perfect for soaking in the local atmosphere.
At Place Gutenberg, learn about Johannes Gutenberg’s revolutionary contributions to printing, with the square serving as a tribute to this historic figure.
