Traveller reviews
Great tour exploring the old town, the small streets and the stories with the guide. Guie was very flexible and knowledgable
Jeremie took us on a tour of some of the highlights of Old Lyon, and thoughtfully catered to our request for less climbing - difficult to do for an area built on a hill but he managed. He was knowledgeable of all things Lyonnaise and rightfully very proud of his heritage. Topics from religion, wars, food, architecture…and silk making. Explained all in an entertaining fashion. The time flew by! We were so intrigued by his stories that we decided to extend and stay in Lyon and continue our discovery. Thank you, Jeremie. When we return we will book you for another Lyonnaise adventure, and will happily recommend you to our friends! And thank you for the lunch recommendation…it was excellent!
Magdalena was fantastic on our Silk Tour! She was engaging and charming and we hit it off beautifully! The tour was complete and informative and memorable! The final stop at the silk worms was so fun!
Magdalena was a fantastic guide! She was so knowledgeable of the town, the hidden passageways, how to get to the top and see the cathedral. I never really used guides before, but now I am a believer. She did such a great job of making sure we got a great lay of the land and to see things we would have NEVER have seen on our own, no matter how good we are as travelers.
We arranged everything via email, it was fast responding and pleasant communication, we easily reached an agreement for the tour when it suited us, a very nice guide who professionally conducted the tour despite the increasingly heavy rain; in short, all praise for the communication and guidance!
A very pleasant, relaxed, and family-friendly experience for walking around the old city in a casual setting.
We were a big group having a tour to old Lyon and Presqu-ile with our guide Jeremy and enjoyed every minute with him in this 3 hour tour. Beautiful city of Lyon (there is more here than meets the eye!) and a knowledgeable, experienced, flexible and very sympa guide Jeremy were a perfect combination. We will all return to Lyon one day again. Thank you for a truly beautiful and worthy experience.
Megan was incredibly insightful and educated. We learned a lot, and she did a wonderful job immersing us into the city and culture. She answered our questions thoughtfully and it was a fun, educational experience for our whole family.
