As we walk along the Saône and through lively squares, you’ll uncover how Lyon became the capital of the Gauls, a major center for the silk industry, and a world reference for gastronomy.
Throughout the tour, you’ll hear stories, local traditions, and fun anecdotes that bring the city’s past and present to life. You’ll also get personal recommendations for food, viewpoints, and neighborhoods to explore after the tour.
