Private Strasbourg Walking Tour: Cathedral & Petite France
Follow a certified tour guide through the Grande Île, a UNESCO World Heritage site, as you explore Strasbourg’s pedestrian old town, its stunning cathedral, and the charming Petite France neighborhood. Along the way, see major landmarks such as Maison Kammerzell, Gutenberg Square, St. Thomas Church, the former tanners’ houses, the Covered Bridges, and more.
Pick up by your guide at your centrally located hotel
For this private walking tour of Strasbourg, your guide will meet you directly at your centrally located hotel or accommodation. If you are arriving from outside the city, a convenient central meeting point can be arranged so you can easily join the tour on foot.
The Cathedral
Begin your private 2‑hour walk in the heart of Strasbourg’s historic center. The old town is dominated by the Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady of Strasbourg, built in pink sandstone and once described by Victor Hugo as a “gigantic and delicate marvel.” Outside, your expert guide will help you read the extraordinary façade, a true stone picture book of the Middle Ages, where hundreds of sculptures seem to leap from the walls in dramatic light and shadow.
Inside, admire the magnificent stained‑glass windows dating from the 12th to 14th centuries, including the impressive rose window that bathes the nave in coloured light. The highlight of the visit is the Renaissance astronomical clock, rebuilt in the 19th century, which features an orrery, a planetary calendar, and a parade of apostles appearing each day around 12:30, led by a small figure of Christ and punctuated by the crowing of a mechanical rooster.
Note: The compulsory audio headset rental required for group visits inside the cathedral is included in the tour price.
The Old Town & La Petite France district
After visiting the cathedral, continue your walk through the narrow streets of the old town toward La Petite France. Once the quarter of millers and tanners who depended on the river’s branches for their work, this former working‑class district is now one of Strasbourg’s most picturesque areas.
Here you’ll find colourful 16th and 17th‑century half‑timbered houses, including the famous Maison des Tanneurs, lining the canals. Your guide will lead you through cobbled lanes and across small squares before reaching the Covered Bridges: a succession of bridges over the River Ill dominated by three 14th‑century towers, remnants of the medieval ramparts that once counted nearly ninety towers.
Customize your Strasbourg experience
Your guide can adapt the walk to your interests, whether you’d like more time in the cathedral area, a detour toward the German imperial district, or suggestions for museums such as those housed in the Palais Rohan. Since this is a private tour, feel free to let us know in advance if there is a particular Strasbourg highlight you would like to include.
Extend your stay in Alsace
After your walking tour, you can choose to continue exploring Strasbourg on your own or join one of our half‑day or full‑day excursions along the Alsace Wine Route, visiting picturesque villages and renowned wine estates for tastings and countryside views.

FAQ
-
Where will we meet our licensed tour guide?
Your guide will meet you directly at your hotel or accommodation in Strasbourg. If you are coming from outside, we will set a convenient meeting point for you. The end of your guided walking tour in Strasbourg will take place in the city center. -
Is your Strasbourg guided walking tour adapted to everyone?
Our Strasbourg walking tours involve an important amount of walking. Even though our walking tours tend to stay on easy to walk sidewalks and streets, the city of Strasbourg still has some cobblestone streets that are difficult to walk on. Therefore we strongly advise that you book this tour only if you are in a good physical condition. This tour is certainly not adapted to persons who have walking difficulties and it is not wheelchair accessible. -
Is the price per person or per group?
The pricing for our walking tours is per group of minimum 2 persons to maximum 15 persons. -
What is the difference between your Strasbourg Guided Walking Tours & Free Tours?
In Strasbourg, the most important difference is that our guides can have you visit the inside of the Strasbourg Cathedral which guides of free tours cannot as most of them are not licensed tour guides.
What makes a guided walking tour in any town or city in the world so unique or outstanding is the personality, knowledge and qualifications of the tour guide. All our guides are local guides who either originate from the city where they guide in or have been living there for a number of years.
All possess the French Diploma that allows them to conduct tours in monuments, museums and historical city centers. This very specific diploma means that your guide is proficient in French History, Culture, Architecture & Art History and will be there to make detailed descriptions of the monuments and sights you will visit. All our guides also include great anecdotes to their lively comments making for very contemporary visits that stand out from the basic, very common ones offered by free tours! -
Can we adapt the tour to fit our wishes?
Aboslutely, since this is a private tour we will customize the walking tour to your wishes. Let our team of travel professionals know what are your main points of interest and they will design the tour accordingly. -
Is this Guided Walking Tour of Strasbourg only available in English?
No, our talented, in-house multi lingual guides will be happy to conduct the tour in French, Spanish, German or Italian.
