Le Park de Tête, learning about the city square and surrounding buildings/monuments. Our guide, Lauryn’s love for Lyon was infectious. She was enthusiastic and very considerate to our needs. We lucked in to sunny skies and only 3 people on our tour.

Segway trop compliqué à manier par moi, mais à vélo c'était super. Bel itinéraire et explications sympathiques! Merci !

samuelcZ563PS

C’était très cool. Tatiana super sympa et ressemble à Maggie dans Walking Dead pour ceux qui ont la référence. Elle parle très bien français malgré son accent brésilien et elle explique très bien l’histoire de certains monuments de Lyon. TOP !!!

Super chouette expérience. Sympa de visiter une ville de cette façon. Les vélos sont vraiment bien et c'est très facile de gravir les collines avec l'assistance. De plus cela permet de découvrir des points de vues pas spécialement repris dans les guides. Notre guide Luce était vraiment super sympa et très instructive .Petit point qui pourrait être amélioré, pour le prix payé une petite bouteille d'eau pourrait être offerte 😉👍.

Nous avons eu la chance d'être guidés par Luce, à la fois compétente et attentionnée. Notre visite a été très agréable. L'heure et demie est passée très vite et nous a donné envie de renouveler et d'offrir l'expérience. Merci beaucoup. Geneviève L.
