A lovely day out and ohhhh, the FOOD

star star star star star

We spent lunchtime of a beautiful sunny, late-summer day gently cruising up and down the river, being fed wonderful French cuisine and listening to a really interesting commentary about the history of the city and the Confluences. It's a fascinating place and seeing it in this way really brought it to life. I knew almost nothing about Lyon before the trip and had no idea about its long history. An excellent trip. Totally recommended.

A superb quality lunch - the lime and peppermint salmon was simply wonderful - aboard a quality vessel on a sun drenched river thru one of europe's most stunning cities. Service with a smile, from well trained effective and efficient waiting staff, from start to finish. Easily the highlight of our stay in Lyon. Massive thanks to everyone at Les Bateaux Lyonnais
