Zeer tevreden
by an
Ik ben zeer tevreden van het gebruik van de Lyon City Card. Het was eenvoudig om deze te regelen en af te halen in l'Office du tourisme, waar men zeer vriendelijk was. We kregen daarbij ook een goede uitleg.
Op de locaties zelf ging alles zeer vlot met de Lyon City Card, net als op het openbaar vervoer. Kijk op voorhand na wat je precies wil doen uit het programma en dan is dit zeker de moeite waard!
Una ciudad con encanto

Volvería sin duda a esta ciudad. Me encantó todo.

We purchased the 72hr cards and it helped us getting around the city and we visited a lot more sights and museums than we intended to. Overall the card had very good value and the app was useful, too.

It was convenient and easy to use but a bit too expensive. The museum's of Lyon are so big and interesting that it's hard to visit more than a couple in a day

Ottima scelta la formula tutto compreso.
Efficiente e gentile il personale di Place Bellecour che ci ha prenotato le visite.
La Lyon city card è imperdibile!

First visit

I found all the information I needed on the internet. The ladies issuing the card were very helpful and answered our questions about how to use the card. The card was very useful and I would recommend it to anyone going to Lyon. We will definitely be back again sometime!
Great pass for 1 or 2 day Lyon trip
by alex
Easy-to-use card perfect for a 1 or 2 day trip to Lyon where you pack in multiple museums/attractions/activities each day and use transportation (tram, metro, funiculaire) to get around. Only complaint is they don't have a location at Lyon Perrache so had to walk to Bellecour to pick up the card.
Perfect!
by yuji
The Lyon city card is an almighty card and worth buying at anytime for anyone. I enjoyed a lot of museums and transportation during my stay with the card. I can assure that it is far better than perfect.
There should be a pick-up location of the online purchased card at the airport
by hao
Tourists can buy a Lyon City Card in the Relay shop at Lyon airport, but there is no place to pick up Lyon City card booked online at the airpot. I ended up having to buy a ticket for 2,10 € to get to the city center to pick up the Lyon City Card, wasting one way of the Rhône Express ticket included in the Card.
good choice
by eva
we went to the tourist office and the boy recommended that we bought it if we wanted to see at least three museums. It allowed us to visit almost everything we wanted and forget about transport. Very convenient.
Beautiful city, great history
by teknik562
The Lyon City Card is a well-thought-out card for exploring the city of Lyon, which holds a vibrant and still-living history. I came on a short business trip, but I’m leaving with some regret for not being able to fully explore everything. I would love to come back one day just to visit. It was a wonderful experience.
Great
by dodo
We had a very warm and helpfull welcome at the tourist office. They helped us with the booking of the city- and boat tour, which we liked and although the visit of the museum of confluence was great. We appreciated that we could use the public transport for free. Very quickly we were everywhere with the tube. Thank you for helping us with our great Lyon-Trip.
Whispers of Revolution and the Prayers of the 48
by billie
I loved Lyon I used the card to enter museums and learn more about the beautiful historic city. As I wandered the streets the modern canuts whispered 50th anniversary celebrations 1831 for our sisters I heard some of the plans and how the Mayor of Lyon is a fake and doesn't care about Lyon(I disagree) I prayed on the spot Christians first worshipped in Lyon which is also the start of the Camino de Santiago.
Beautiful City
by katrin
The card is very useful, when you vistit several museums.
Also the boat trip and the guided tour, included in the card, are very much recommended.
excellent
by theodora
The Lyon City Card is an absolute game-changer for anyone wanting to explore the vibrant city of Lyon with ease and value. From the moment I started using it, I was impressed by how convenient and cost-effective it made my visit. Overall, the Lyon City Card helped me save both time and money, while enriching my travel experience with flexibility and insider access. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a returning traveler, this card is definitely worth it!
Good value for a price
by katya
Overall, everything was great — we managed to see all the places we had planned, and having unlimited access to public transportation was a huge bonus.
The only downside was the boat cruise. We asked at the tourist office whether we needed to make a reservation and were told it wasn't necessary, as boats were always available. However, when we arrived, tickets for the route we wanted were completely sold out for the day. What made it particularly frustrating was that some people did have reservations made through the tourist office, which made us feel misled.
Buy this card!
by jamilla
The Lyon City card makes your visit to Lyon seamless and easy! Transit Card and many free experiences all in one. Great value.
Great experience
by sarah s
My husband and I loved the city.l of Lyon. We were able to experience so much of it thanks to the card. From museum entries, 2 tours (boat and walking), and included transportation, I felt like I didn't have to worry to enjoy. Office and guides were friendly and helpful.
Good experience
by annika
I really liked having the Lyon city card to discover the city.
With the 48h version I had one guided city tour, a boat tour, visited 3 museums, used public transport and used the opportunity to register for the bike rental system.
For me it was a good way to see and do all the things I am interested in while not having to think about the coasts for every single activity.
One beautiful day
by hristina
We visited several museums, took a cruise on the Saone River, and used public transportation.
Excellent App version
by von2
As a 1st time visitor to Lyon, the smart phone app contains key information on the activities, venues and public transport associated with the card. Time stamped on entry and maintained in useful overview. Took card combined with Rhon Express for airport connection. Convenient and good value if intending to visit many of the museums etc.

Useful to have
by helen
We bought a 48hour Lyon City Card online. You have the option to include Rhonexpress return to the airport which we did. The card includes museum bus metro travel. If you buy online ensure you pick up an actual card to use for transport around the city.

by eric c.
It must probably will make your stay cheaper.
And it is great because of how simple things are: just use it for every bus/subway/tram ride, to get into so many museums...
Really simple, useful... and saves money.
Good value
by megan
This was very useful, from unlimited transit to tours and admissions included, it made our 2 days in Lyon very easy to navigate. Also customer service was excellent. I lost my card just before our boat tour (near the end of our 48hrs) and I was able to go back to the tourist office and they put the validation code on my phone, in the app (note, this does not give you back access to transit! Best not to lose the card!) great overall experience!
Super useful!
by michi
Truly useful and convenient. The duration is calculated from the time of activation, so plan it well to make the most of the card.

I really enjoyed visiting Lyon. The Lyon City Card's access to the public transportation system made it easy to get around the city and I saved money by buying and using it to visit a number of museums. The Lyon City Card was well worth the money.
Useful for visiting Lyon.

Very practical including among others public transport, museums, river cruise and guided visit to Vieux Lyon. Validity 48 hours.
Enjoyable visit

Lyon card contributed to a enjoyable visit in Lyon
Convenient and value for money
by kelvin
This card is very convenient and it brings you to most museums. It’s a pity that I only bought 24 h card as the next day is Labour Day and the museums and public transports are not operating. If I come back again, I’ll surely get the card to continue exploration.
Excelente opción
by maria teresa ortiz
Realmente sacamos un gran provecho a nuestra visita y podemos recomendar y confirmar la excelente opción que es comprar esta tarjeta. Si se organizan bien seguro quedarán encantados. Compramos la de 48 horas y visitamos los lugares más importantes y pudimos utilizar varias veces Metro, bus y tranvía.

La Lyon city card è molto utile e ti consente di risparmiare. Sono compresi i principali Musei e tutti i tipi di trasporti che conviene utilizzare per muoverti da una parte all'altra della città. E' compreso anche il giro in battello che ti prenotano direttamente dove compri la card.

Molto utile per girare senza preoccuparsi di trovare monete/banconote o utilizzare carta di credito ecc. ed entrare e uscire dai mezzi pubblici con nonchalance. Utilissima per i musei, anche.
Splendid opportunity!

The Lyon City Card gave our family an immense freedom in exploring Lyon. We could go where we wanted, when we wanted, and have three very diverse, rich and enteraining days in this beautiful city. Thank you!
Value for money
by pyeman
The Lyon City Card is expensive but it saves you so much money on your trip - particularly with unlimited travel on public transport for the duration of your card.
Fantastic stay in Lyon
by mar_mnk
Very practical, it reduces ticket purchase procedures and includes many free visits. Plan your visit before purchasing it, it is possible that depending on the plan it may not be worth it.
Excellent City Card
by anne
The Lyon City Card is excellent. The fact that it includes transport around the city is fantastic. One card makes sightseeing much easier. The Tourist Office booked me onto a one hour guided tour of the old city and also a sightseeing cruise on the river. Both were thoroughly enjoyable. The card is a great initiative by the city of Lyon!
Perfect way to get to know Lyon quickly
by david
In 48 hours, we saw and enjoyed the Lumière museum, the printing museum, the museum of Resistance and Deportation, Lugdunum and its theatres, and the Fine Arts Museum...and rode the metro, funicular, and trams AND took a scenic cruise on the Saône. Highly recommended!
Good value!
by suze
We used our cards to hop on and off the buses and trams. Also took advantage of an afternoon boat trip - really good value and a great way to see more of the city.
Incredible value
by alves
Free entries to amazing museums, guided tours and transports. Couldn't discover/visit everything in 3 days.
Useful card
by cat
We found it very useful for using the metro without worrying about tickets. We also used the cards for the lumière museum, a guided walk of vieux Lyon and the île barbe Cruise. Check on special deals and free entries - we went to the Roman remisins and musée at Fourvière which was free anyway on first Sunday of the month, and the zoo and parc tête d’or which is also free but we still saved overall.
Falta de información

Card is only ok
by e
This city card wasn’t as good as others I’ve used. The app made it difficult to find the most important sites from those that are less significant. It also didn’t make it easy to navigate those included in the card vs. those that only offer a small discount. The unlimited metro use was very helpful but that can also be done with a metro pass. I liked you can skip the line at museums but this should be stated on the app! I only learned it by accident!

This card was great. It was basically the only thing I had to pay for over 2 days in Lyon (well, had I paid closer attention to what it covered and not been flustered at the museum at the basilica, so maybe take the paper handout they offer saying everything it covers!). Very easy to use and helpful in getting around. The workers at the tourism center were also super helpful and provided a lot of great information. Highly recommend this card if spending time in Lyon.
Very valuable!
by susan
We used the card for all of our travel (bus, metro, trolley) and museums. It was so easy to use!
Great service for tourists but over priced for sure!
by chinmay
While I appreciate the promise of access to over 88 museums and activities plus free public transport, I found that within a 48-hour timeframe, it was challenging to fully utilize the card. Due to long waiting lines, time spent on meals, and exploring both the old and new towns, our group of four was only able to visit only three museums and partake in a few additional activities (boat cruise and ferris wheel ride, free waling tour) this past weekend.
Considering the cost of €44 (plus €11 for the Miniature and Cinema Museum) for the 48 h card, I believe the pricing does not reflect the limited opportunities available within the time constraints. I strongly suggest a revised pricing structure of €20, €30, €40, and €50 for the 24, 48, 72, and 96-hour city cards, which I feel would present a fairer deal for tourists.
I would appreciate your consideration of this feedback and would like to discuss the possibility of a partial refund. My email address is [email protected].

I've been to Lyon twice and used the card both times. It's incredibly helpful. I get the version that gives me the airport transfer. Which is an extremely great way to get from the airport into the city centre. The free entry you get to many attractions and the discounted entry to others has saved me a great deal of money.

Es ideal para visitar la ciudad en su totalidad. Complementa la prestación con las visitas a museos y visitas guiadas..
In general easy to use and helpful
by yinwei zhou
Main reason choose city card is free museum and transportation , especially the card simpliefed transportation a lot .
Visit 3 museums , Mini World and Art Museum are good , if have time , will make more use of this card.
One bad experience is that it is actually a soft card instead of a hard one , if it is a hard card , easier for storage and can be kept as a sourvinier

Not so good
by mauro casciari
In 2025 still a plastic card to collect by hand to get a qr code? Hard to find reception of the Part-Dieu mall. Don’t understand why they can’t have the Transport card too, so why go there for just a qr code? Boats and several attractions where closed in january.
Marvellous

Very good service. I was only in town for 48 hours but it was worth it. Saw a few museums and used the Rhone express.
Città da scoprire!
by riccardo da roma
Accogliente, affascinante città da scoprire camminando tra le stradine del centro rinascimentale, tra le strade intorno la piazza della sede del Municipio e del suo parco principale, sui viali lungo i fiumi. Da ammirare anche navigando sui due fiumi che la cingono!
Musei tutti da visitare!
Easy and convenient
by luca
Many activities, basically all the museums and all the public transport for less than 25€ for a single day. It’s an incredible opportunity to see Lyon easily and to join the city.

Discovering Lyon with the Perfect Travel Companion: The Lyon City Card
by boulidam badreddine
I recently visited Lyon and used the 48-hour Lyon City Card, which was an excellent choice for exploring the city! The card gave me unlimited access to public transportation—tram, bus, metro, and even the funicular—which made getting around incredibly convenient. I used it to visit fantastic attractions like the Planetarium, Groupama Stadium, Musée des Confluences, and La Sucrière for the "Pompeii, Cité Immortelle" exhibition.
The card was easy to use; I got mine at the Office de Tourisme Lyon Bellecour, where a friendly staff member provided all the information I needed. It truly felt like a great deal, especially for transportation, and it offered so many options to explore the city's cultural gems.
I highly recommend the Lyon City Card to anyone visiting Lyon—it's a hassle-free way to make the most of your trip!

Lyon City Card is definitely value for money if you intend to use public transport, to visit several museums and book a tour or two. Although not all museums are included, discounts due to City Card are beneficial. 48hr card is probably more cost-effective.

Lyon review
by michal
Transport system is good, and fairly easy to navigate. There could be sign la of the next station approaching in metro. There is only audio that says name of the station once right before train stops and it only is in french. Sometimes had to use google maps to make sure I'm on the right station.
Most museums and galleries I visited were definitely worth it.
Food, and architecture is phenomenal.
Airport is disaster though. I arrived on Friday around 5pm and there was no info, fairly bad signs. Had to google everything. Also train from aeroport to city is not enough. I goes only once every 30 min, and it is fairly small. There was no space in the first one I was waiting for so I had to wait additional 30 min for another train.
Overall I rate city 7.5/10.
Lyon city card is definitely worth it if you plan to visit museums etc.
Sincerely,
Michal (Slovakia)

by damian
The most important thing it’s the transport
Useful, but confuse
by damielle
I bought the Lyon Cuy Card + Rhone Express transfer.
It's not clear from the beginning that the two are independent, each with its own valability: I learned about it just after inquiring the hot line.
Also: confusing that there are 2 (two) QR codes (one for LCC, one for Rhone Express), yet the local transportation (part of LCC) was granted NOT through the LCC QR code, but through the hne Express QR code.
Also; It ws advertised that 88 museums are accessible via LCC. NOWHERE could I find the exhaustive list! Just a bunch (max 10, I think?) were listed

We have an app Lyon City Card + website to consult all attractions included on Lyon City Card
The digital offer Lyon City Card + Rhonexpress is a combine offer = Lyon CIty Card + Rhonexpress transfer, that's why you received 2 qrcodes in same time. The public transportation in Lyon cannot be digital so the agent on bord has to give tickets TCL
We hope in a few years to developp a full digital offer in order to be more simple for our clients

Exceeded Expectations
by minnesota traveler
My husband and I recently spent 4 days in Lyon. It exceeded our expectations. We always wanted to see the area, the old city combined with the new area. Wonderful historical architecture in the old city plus modern architecture in the Confluences neighborhood. We enjoyed the silk museum and the Musee de Confluences was a wonderful natural history museum. We ate wonderful food everywhere and enjoyed a Rhone Valley wine tour.
4 nights in Lyon
by jeffers
We bought a 72 hour card along with the Rhone Express transfer from airport, this worked very well for us and we made full use of the travel cards. Having free access to so many galleries & museums encouraged us to try lots of areas. Lyon is a great city full of culture & gastronomy with a fabulous connected public transport network.
Great for transportation
by degai
This card is great for using transportation and seeing several museums. Things had changed since I bought the card and when I got to Lyon. No reservations were needed for the boat ride, but they were needed for the tour. They also no longer sell the ability to use WiFi. We went to the vaparetto stops and the boat area and never found any. The boat ride had a schedule, but I saw no schedule for the vaporetto.
