We had the storytelling tour in the Vieux Lyon. We really enjoyed it : the guide was great with perfect rythme and play, the story is well designed and we discovered lot of interesting spots. I would say this is the perfect way to discover a city, specially with children.

Once again, Chloe, Agent C, proved to be exciting and very talented; Old Lyon has almost no secrets for us.
My 2 grandchildren aged 10 and 12 were passionate; I will take my 2 other grandchildren from their next stay in Lyon.
All 4 had loved the visit to the Croix-Rousse following in Jirôme’s footsteps

Notre fille a adoré la visite, elle était captivé par l’histoire et la compteuse. Cette visite est super pour les enfants, mais aussi les parents, pour découvrir les traboules du vieux Lyon.

Nous avons fait la visite du vieux Lyon pour les maternelles avec nos fils de 4 et 7 ans, visite tout à fait adaptée à ces âges.
La conteuse, l'agent L, est formidable, elle sait captiver les petits, les faire observer les monuments, elle les fait chanter et jouer pendant 1h !
Ils étaient hyper contents de leur visite, nous aussi, et nous continuons à chanter la chanson de lion Spaghetti à la maison!! :)

Visite contée et donc romancée assez ludique par contre un peu courte (1h15)... En ce qui me concerne j'aurais plutôt dû choisir la visite classique organisée par l'office du tourisme car j'ai pu comparer en faisant les visites "De Fourvière à la Saône et La Maison des Canuts et les pentes de la Croix Rousse" avec Fabienne (office du tourisme) et j'ai nettement préféré...

Deux visites avec Cybèle ce week-end. Merci à Olivier pour cette découverte ludique mais néanmoins très instructive.

Une autre façon de découvrir la ville. Plus dynamique et prenant qu'une visite classique, tous ont été agréablement surpris.

La guide est une merveilleuse artiste qui captive tous les publics.
