Guided tours

Discover the history and secrets of Strasbourg and the region of Alsace

I was born and raised in Mulhouse, a town to the south of Strasbourg by the Swiss border. However, I have been living and working here/Strasbourg since 2014 and passionately sharing my love of the region, Alsace, to visitors !

I offer a variety of guided tours tailored to your interests. Here are a few examples:

In Strasbourg: the cathedral, Petite France, Neustadt, and the European Quarter. To get out of the city, let's visit picturesque villages such as Riquewihr and then taste Alsatian wine at the winegrowers' along the wine route. Add Sélestat, Colmar, Mulhouse, the Baroque church of Ebersmunster, and the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle to your list.

The region has been the scene of many wars. After visiting the medieval castles and Vauban fortifications in Neuf-Brisach, I can take you to see the trenches of the First World War at Col du Linge, the fortresses of the Maginot Line, the Nazi concentration camp at Natzweiler-Struthof, and the Alsace-Moselle Memorial in Schirmeck.

I can also be your tour guide in other regions of France and abroad.
