🛶 Take a boat tour of Colmar – Little Venice of France 🇫🇷

I just went to Colmar and I have to say that “You have to take a boat!” because it is one of the highlights of this city.

🌸 Atmosphere
Colmar is very cute, a small town that looks like it came out of a fairy tale. Candy-colored houses along the canals, flowers decorate every bridge. Go in late March to April, the flowers are starting to bloom, very colorful, the weather is cool and not too cold.

🚤 Boat ride experience
• It is called Boat Tour in Little Venice (Petite Venise)
• It does not take long, about 25-30 minutes.
• The boat is a flat boat with no roof, giving a very chill feeling because you sit low near the water surface, you can see the beautiful colorful houses very clearly.
• The boat captain will tell stories about the city (some boats speak English), such as the history of Colmar, old houses, or beautiful bridges.
• The reflection of the houses on the water surface is very beautiful, like a postcard.

💶 Price
• About €7-€8 per person, depending on the boat company.
• Children usually pay half price.
• No need to book in advance. If you go during a time when there are fewer people, but if it's during a festival, I recommend booking in advance.

📸 Photography tips
• If you sit at the very front, you'll get a photo without a person's head stuck in front of you.
• Bring a camera or mobile phone that can take pictures in low light conditions because some parts of the bridge will be a bit dark.
• The colors of the houses are the most beautiful in the morning or afternoon because the sun shines just right.

🍦 Nearby food
• There are many ice cream shops, crepe shops, and cute cafes in the area. Walking around after getting on the boat is very enjoyable.

Conclusion
If you go to Colmar, don't miss taking a boat ride because you'll get a really romantic and beautiful view of the city. Even though it's a short tour, it's worth it. It's like seeing the city from a special angle that you might not see on foot.
