Strasbourg Highlights & German Border Bike Tour

A dynamic bike tour from Strasbourg to Kehl with city highlights and riverside riding

Experience the very best of the city on this Strasbourg bike tour to the German border – a guided cycling day tour that combines historic highlights, political landmarks, and a cross-border ride into Kehl.

This Strasbourg cycling tour takes you to the city’s top sightseeing hotspots, including the UNESCO-listed Old Town, Petite France, Neustadt, and the world-famous European institutions, before crossing the Rhine into Germany for a unique border experience.

Your guided bike tour begins in Place d’Austerlitz, where you’ll meet your local guide beside the statue of Napoleon Bonaparte and the ‘Grotto of Napoleon’. From here, pedal into Strasbourg’s UNESCO World Heritage Grande Île, cycling through medieval streets lined with half-timbered houses and past the soaring Gothic Strasbourg Cathedral.

Continue your Strasbourg day tour through Petite France – the city’s most picturesque district – before riding into Neustadt, the German Quarter, where grand Prussian-style architecture reflects Strasbourg’s Franco-German heritage.

This bike tour of Strasbourg then leads into the European Quarter, where you’ll cycle past the European Parliament, Council of Europe, and European Court of Human Rights – institutions that give Strasbourg its title as the ‘Capital of Europe’.

Glide along the Rhine and through the Parc de l’Orangerie before crossing the Pont de l’Europe into Kehl. In this charming German border town, enjoy a relaxed coffee stop and experience the distinct character of the Baden region.

Your Strasbourg bike day tour concludes back in the historic center, finishing in Petite France at the Covered Bridges – a fittingly scenic finale to this cross-border cycling adventure.
