Lyon Free Tour: History and Tradition

We begin our tour at Place Bellecour. After a brief presentation to situate us in the history and soul of the city, we will enter the heart of the Presqu'île. We will admire the Célestins theater and the harmonious architecture of the Place des Jacobins. We will cross the Passage de l'Argue until we reach the lively Rue Mercière, famous for its varied gastronomic offer. From there, we will head to Vieux Lyon, one of the best preserved medieval and Renaissance neighborhoods in Europe, where we will explore such highlights as the Palace of Justice, the Roman archaeological garden, the Saint-Jean cathedral and its museums. We will also delve into the traboules, historic passageways that hide fascinating stories. Finally, we will return to La Presqu'île to discover the Place des Terreaux, the City Hall and the Lyon Opera House, undisputed symbols of the city. Throughout the tour, I will share with you recommendations of restaurants, traditional bouchons, cafés and other special places that will make your experience in Lyon even more complete.

I invite you to live this experience in a close, dynamic and curious way!
