Your group stay in Colmar
With its half-timbered houses reflected in the waters of the Lauch, few cities in France have as much charm as Colmar. No doubt your group will succumb to it during your group stay in Colmar. Colmar, like Alsace, is very well located, at the crossroads of France, Germany and Switzerland. While Colmar does not have an international airport, Strasbourg and Basel-Mulhouse airports are only an hour away and therefore offer a wide choice of destinations throughout Europe. A very touristy city on the Alsatian wine route, Colmar has a wide choice of hotels, either in the city centre or near the motorway linking Basel to Strasbourg. Depending on your budget and your desires, you can organize your school trip to Colmar in a luxury hotel or in a cheap hotel for groups. However, beware of the Christmas market period. If Colmar deserves to be seen at this time of year, it is also a very popular destination during the Christmas and New Year holidays and many hotels can be sold out. Remember to book in advance if you wish to organise your group trip to Colmar during the month of December.
During your group trip to Colmar, take the time to take your group for a walk on the banks of the Lauch River, in "Little Venice". With its colourful half-timbered houses and flowered balconies, this district of Colmar is an invitation to stroll around. If your group has art lovers, Colmar will delight them. Indeed, the Unterlinden Museum is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful provincial museums in France with its Issenheim altarpiece, one of the jewels of medieval art. Your group stay in Colmar will also be an opportunity for the members of your group to taste Alsatian specialities. The city is full of charming restaurants that pay tribute to Alsatian gastronomy and wines. So many possibilities for outings with your group.
