Christmas Flavors of Alsace
Festive Charm and Foods of Strasbourg Embrace the spirit of Christmas at Europe’s oldest market, sampling mulled wine and delicious festive fare. Take a guided walk through the city’s medieval streets—home to the seat of the European Parliament. In the heart of the city, behold the magical setting of Strasbourg’s Christmas market. Colorful stalls displaying arts and handicrafts are surrounded by food merchants and vendors offering traditional treats. From Alsatian cheeses and meats to local Christmas beer and the cinnamon-hued scent of glühwein (spicy mulled wine), taste your way around. Pick up a gift or two for friends and family—perhaps a traditional gingerbread house. Later, see the landmark Gothic cathedral and tour the romantic Petite France, the city’s canal-laced Old Town lined with half-timbered houses. Here, enjoy a typical Alsatian meal of choucroute —a hearty, winter-warming dish of sausages and sauerkraut . * Demanding - Physically challenging activities, including extensive walks, hiking, riding, water sports, and high altitude activities.
