I really enjoyed this walking trip! I wanted to practice French and my guide (I’m so sorry I can’t remember her name ☹️) could not have been kinder or more patient. She spoke slowly and clearly and put up with my limited French. I learnt so much about Lyon, which is beautiful and has a fascinating history. I’d thoroughly recommend this tour

Itinerary
Ideally located in the heart of Lyon’s historic center, your guide will be welcoming you directly at our shop. There, you can leave any personal belongings or extra items in one of our secure lockers during the tour, so you can explore comfortably and hands-free.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this Renaissance district features cobbled streets, secret traboules (hidden passageways), and colorful historic buildings that bring the city’s past to life. You will have the time to explore the main buildings such as Cathedral St-John.
One of the largest squares in Europe and the vibrant heart of Lyon. Admire the statue of Louis XIV and enjoy a stunning view of the Fourvière hill.
Stroll in the Peninsula (Presqu'île) to discover Lyon’s iconic shopping street, theaters, nice squares, and beautiful 19th-century buildings. A lively artery in the city center.
A former 12th-century hospital transformed into a prestigious space blending heritage, architecture, and modern lifestyle. A fascinating stop between past and present.

The guide was very good, knowledgeable and very helpful and friendly
Very informative walk learning about some of the history of the city. Our guide was great she was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and made everyone in our small group feel welcome. Easy way to see and learn about area.
Really enjoyed the tour! Would recommend it to anyone looking to learn more about Lyon.
Cecile was excellent. She gave us a lot of time answered our questions and was a great introduction to the city of Lyon. I highly recommend her as a guide. Our entire group felt the same way.
Good walking tour of the old part of the city. Most of the other participants were French speaking, but our tour guide Maeve, being bilingual, make sure we were included on all explanations. Although there was quite a bit of walking, it was mostly flat. Highly recommend..
Maeve was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and super friendly. This a great way to see the old town and explore the culture and history of Lyon.
Our guide and her assistant were terrific! They are very knowledgeable and shared this knowledge in an interesting delivery.
