Located right by the river Rhine, which marks the border to Germany, it is easy to explore a city in a different country as well on this 3-hour bike tour.Meet your guide on Place d'Austerlitz, where you will get a short introduction to the city through a talk beside the famous small-scale model.
Then you'll start the circuit through the imperial German district: the Neustadt, then to the European Institutions and finally back through old town: Petite France. Crossing Pont du Corbeau then passing Place Gutenberg, and soon you'll arrive in front of one of the highlights of the tour: Cathedrale Notre Dame de Strasbourg.

Passing through the Neustadt, you'll arrive in the heart of the European district, with the European Parliament, the Council of Europe and the European Court for Human Rights.
Take a breath of fresh air in the Parc de l'Orangerie and its little zoo.
Then a nice cycle path will lead you to the French-German border. There you'll get to see the Jardin des deux rives and its lovely cross-border gardens along the river Rhine.
