Strasbourg Segway Tour: La Petite France & Quartier Européen
You cover neighborhoods in two hours that would take a full day on foot.
A 2-hour Segway tour of Strasbourg takes you through the medieval heart of La Petite France, the German district of Neustadt, and the modern Quartier Européen where EU institutions stand. A live guide in English, French or German narrates the route; helmet and rain cap are included. Minimum two people per booking; children from age 11 are welcome when accompanied by an adult.
The Experience
How much ground can you cover in two hours without wearing out your legs? A Segway tour answers that by letting you glide through Strasbourg's most distinct neighborhoods in a single afternoon. You collect your Segway and helmet at the start, then head into the old quarter and city center with a guide who points out the architectural shifts as you move between eras—from the half-timbered houses where medieval tanners and millers lived to the grand administrative buildings of the Quartier Européen.
La Petite France sits at the western end of the Grande Île and is the part most visitors come to see on foot, dodging crowds on narrow streets. On a Segway you move through it differently, taking in the full scope of the district's layout and the way the water channels run through it. The guide shares stories about the people who lived here and the trades that built the neighborhood, so you're not just passing through—you're getting context for what you're seeing.
The Neustadt district shows you another Strasbourg entirely: the German architectural style that arrived in the 19th century, with wider streets and different building proportions. Then you reach the Quartier Européen, where the European Court of Human Rights building by Richard Rogers and other EU institutions sit. These are not interiors you can enter on this tour, but seeing them from street level and hearing how they fit into Strasbourg's role as a seat of European governance gives the city a different shape than a walking tour alone would show.
