Christmas Markets in Alsace
Hello! 😊
Absolutely, the Strasbourg Christmas market is a must-see, just like the one in Colmar, which is truly one of the most beautiful in Alsace!
Living in Colmar, I also recommend the Christmas markets in the typical villages nearby—they’re well worth the detour during Advent:
Kaysersberg, very authentic and full of charm,
Riquewihr, with its illuminated medieval streets, Eguisheim, often ranked among the most beautiful villages in France.
I suggest staying in Colmar or the surrounding area—it’s central for easily exploring the different markets.
For Strasbourg, you can easily take a day trip by train: the journey is direct (about 30 minutes) and avoids parking hassles.
Magical atmosphere guaranteed! 🎄

Sari Solenzara with family in the summer
Hi there! 😊
Sari-Solenzara is a great choice if you like variety: sea, mountains, hikes, natural pools, canyoning—you can really do it all without driving too much. Plus, it’s quieter than the south, which is a big plus in the middle of summer!
That said, to be honest, it’s not the most typical or "postcard-perfect" area of Corsica (I lived there for two years). The landscapes are pretty but a little less striking than in the south or Balagne.
If you're looking for something a bit more picturesque:
Balagne (Calvi, Île-Rousse, etc.) is stunning, with its hilltop villages, turquoise-water beaches, and a truly authentic Corsican vibe.
The south (Porto-Vecchio, Bonifacio, Palombaggia, etc.) has gorgeous beaches, but it’s also the most touristy area in summer.
Airport tips: For Sari-Solenzara, Bastia airport is the easiest option, with a direct and relatively smooth road.
And if you want to explore more widely, Bastia is also a great gateway: accessible roads, varied landscapes, proximity to Cap Corse, Castagniccia, Balagne, the center of the island, and an easy drive down to the south.
Have a great trip!
