We were fortunate to have as our guide in Strasbourg, Ivan De La Torre. He was knowledgeable, amusing and provided interesting commentary about the old city as well as Strasbourg's role in the EU administration. It was clear he thoroughly enjoyed sharing his passion for Strasbourg, it's history, architecture and people. We had just finished a Rhine river cruise and this was the perfect finale.
