The name "Little Venice" seems exaggerated to me, nothing in the area reminded me of Venice. But the area is very beautiful, it has a special charm, with its houses that seem to be taken out of story books. There are many restaurants and souvenir shops in the area and thousands of tourists. Crowded! There are boats with a boatman that you can walk along a certain (not very long) section of the river.

We stopped here en route coming from west Germany on our way to skiing in Switzerland and enjoyed a relaxed weekend in picturesque Colmar. The city is everything, but a secret and is known beyond the borders of France and Europe for its beautiful and amazingly well preserved city center. There really isn't anything to add, as the famed beauty of the city really holds up to the expectations. Of course its touristic, but that is no surprise as people are drawn to beautiful places such as this one.

A charming take on the very famous Venice. We visited during the middle of March, so we found it peaceful and quiet. I imagine this would be a tourist hotspot come the Summer months. It was smaller than I imagined it would be, and you can’t reserve a table in the restaurant which is worth knowing if you wish to eat or drink there. Many other options for food/drink near by. Colmar in itself is a beautiful place, and paired with Little Venice we were not disappointed.

Cute village that has been part of Germany and France numerous times. You can really see the influence of Germany with the half-timber houses. This was such a beautiful area of Colmar. We were here during the Christmas Markets which made it even more beautiful. There is a love lock bridge where you can add a lock and you can also take a gondola ride. Very picturesque .

The whole of the old town including Little Venice are lovely. Beautiful half-timbered houses and other fine buildings everywhere, canals, numerous cafes - and on the sunny day we went a multitude of happy smiling tourists. There was a lot of road maintenance in the area around the cathedral which was a little annoying; but I guess they have to do it as some stage. But Colmar is a lovely town and makes a great day-trip from Strasbourg.

We visited here as a family (2 adults and two children aged 9 and 5). We didn't quite realise how much of the town was 'old town'. Its a very pretty place. Lots of lovely little shops, cafes and restaurants. Parking is quite difficult, as we drive a van and a lot of the parking is multistory which we can't fit into. But there are some parking in the residential areas, which is only a short walk into the town. We spent 4-5 hours here, just walking around, having some food and drink. Nice to have a laid back day.

My son and I took the bus to Colmar. Such a beautiful place yes it was busy with tourists but it was August so I did expect it. However it was not too crowded that we weren’t able to see the sights. The canals were beautiful with the boats passing by. The centre also had a large indoor market which had some beautiful cakes and other foods. The architecture is amazing but I do love timber housing.

La Petite Venise in Colmar is a charming place. It's like a tiny Venice with colorful houses by the water. You can take a boat ride and enjoy the lovely views. The area has cozy restaurants where you can taste delicious French food. It's a great spot for a leisurely walk, especially in the evening when the lights reflect in the water. La Petite Venise is a picturesque place, perfect for romantic moments and enjoying the beauty of Colmar. If you're in town, don't miss this little piece of Venice in France.

The Little Venice is a lovely part of the old town of Colmar. With the little river, it looks very beautiful. It is nice just to go for a walk. There are different restaurants and cafes, if you want to take a rest.
