Around Freiburg we discover the charm of both the Black Forest Capital and the city of sustainable tourism. We learn about the legend of the Swabian merchant who fell in love with the city and proposed to buy it. For good reason because he was fascinated by the typical Bächle, the beautiful and imposing Münster cathedral, with the Gothic tower called the most beautiful in Christianity. We admire the mosaic decorations of the sidewalks and the beautiful bay windows of the buildings. But not only, we walk through charming streets and elegant shops. The tour allows you to discover the medieval city, the birth of the free municipality, its historical development up to the present day: today it is the city of sustainability and green economy.

Freiburg becomes the crime scene in this self-guided detective game, where the clues are hidden in plain sight in the streets around you. The case is the murder of Balthasar, and the evidence is scattered across the old centre - past Schwabentor, Martinstor, the Augustiner Museum and Haus zum Walfisch. You decode messages, photograph what does not add up and press digital witnesses whose stories never quite line up. Every puzzle you crack removes a name from the list of suspects. Play as a couple, bring the children along, or send two or three teams out at the same time and turn the investigation into a race - which is what makes this murder mystery game work as well for a team outing as for a day out. The last answer is waiting somewhere in the centre of Freiburg.

On the Front Tours is a specialist WWII operator. The Colmar Pocket is led by battlefield historian Matthew Menneke, featured on National Geographic and the Discovery Channel, so you get genuine expertise on the ground, not a script read from a card. Because the tour is fully private, the day is built around your group alone — your pace, your questions, your interests. We don't combine you with strangers or rush a fixed timetable. And we connect the whole campaign into one clear story. Most of these sites have a plaque and little else; the value is a specialist who can link a Maginot casemate, a river crossing, Audie Murphy's stand and the final break at Jebsheim into a single narrative you actually understand by the end. - Stand at Holtzwihr, where Audie Murphy won the Medal of Honor - Seven battlefield stops in chronological order across Alsace - Private tour, your group only, led by a specialist historian - Hotel pick-up from Colmar or Freiburg
