Best way to get to know Lyon
by marita h
Just had a wonderful time on a four hour e-bike tour of Lyon with food tasting. Our guide was so knowledgable and proud of Lyon, but with great personality and sense of humor. Lyon is a fascinating city and our guide and the e-bikes s made it easily accessible.
If you visit Lyon make this experience an early priority!
Fun tour!

My husband and I recently took this tour - our first time with electric bikes. The guide was very passionate and informed about Lyon, and explained the history and culture very well. The tour itself was very interesting - we got to see different parts of Lyon, and the food stop was welcome and delicious.
Great way to see Lyon

The bikes are easy to use, we saw so much of Lyon that we could not have walked. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared his love of Lyon. Enjoyed the tea and cake towards the end too!
