Day-long visit to Old Strasbourg and the Christmas Market
We'll set out on a guided tour of the capital of Europe. We'll begin our tour through several different neighborhoods in the city: the German quarter located around the famous Place de la République and the European quarter's Palace of Europe, European Court of Humans Rights, and the European Parliament. We'll continue our visit to the Petite France quarter, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1988, and discover its lovely canals, half-timbered houses and small streets before moving on to the Cathedral square. You'll visit the Christmas Markets on Place Broglie and in front of the cathedral with our hostess. At this time of year, the entire city is covered in garlands and decorations, especially the streets and shops. Lunch on board. This afternoon, enjoy free time to shop in the boutiques before we set out with our hostess to admire the lights around the city near the cathedral, the Place Kléber, Carré d'Or and Place Gutenburg. Afterwards, we'll return to the ship.
