Overview

  • Leave Strasbourg for a day of celebration in two German cities with very different atmospheres: an imperial cathedral, a fan-shaped city, and a Santa Claus crossing the sky.

    In Speyer, discover one of the largest Romanesque cathedrals in Europe, a UNESCO World Heritage site. After visiting your guide, freely visit the cathedral and its imperial crypt, where medieval emperors rest (entrance included). Then stroll through the Christmas Point of Sale and have lunch at your own pace.

    In the afternoon, off to Karlsruhe, the “city in a fan” founded in 1715. A 45-minute guided tour takes you from the baroque castle to the Marktplatz pyramid, followed by free time at the Christkindlesmarkt, between illuminations and treats.

    At 5:00 PM, the “Flying Santa” crosses the sky over the square in its sleigh (weather permitting). Return to minivan in Strasbourg around 7:00 PM.
