Itinerary
1
Lyon
With a local host beside you, this private tour flows through Lyon’s diverse districts, iconic views, and tucked-away local gems. Here’s an example of what your route might include:
2
Place Bellecour
Begin in one of Europe’s largest open squares, framed by elegant 19th-century buildings. Your host can share its history and point out key landmarks before you set off.
3
Vieux Lyon
Step into the city’s Renaissance quarter and explore its traboules — hidden passageways that weave between courtyards. Along the way, spot architectural details that tell the story of Lyon’s silk-making past.
4
La Croix-Rousse
Stroll through this former silk-weaving hub, now an artsy neighborhood filled with colorful murals, steep staircases, and intimate public squares. Your host can share stories of local life, creativity, and resistance.
5
The Saone River
Follow the scenic promenade along the Saône, where reflections ripple on the water and locals gather to walk, cycle, or enjoy a riverside break.
6
Passerelle Saint-Vincent
Cross this charming footbridge for one last photo-worthy view over the river toward the Old Town, with the colorful facades of the riverside buildings glowing in the light.
