History and humour in Vieux Lyon
by jamesj
Many thanks to Catherine for an excellent tour.
Catherine is very knowledgeable in respect of Vieux Lyon, and communicates in a clear and enthusiastic manner. She focused on some of the key historic people in Lyon from Roman times, but more importantly she expanded on the lives and challenges of ordinary Lyon residents in the past 300 years.
Merci bien!!
Places you won't find on your own

Alex guided our group of ~15 through Vieux Lyon with informative comments. We especially appreciated visiting a couple of traboules (interior passages) with remarkable features of ancient architecture. we would never have seen them without his help.

Tourist information good.
The tour Viex-Lyon we nearly missed due to directions. We got muddled with Lyon 5th and went to a Lion on 5th.
I also could not hear very well.
Boat trip was good. Help from one of the centre representatives was really good.
great place

Very informative tour guide made the tour particularly enjoyable.
Smart personal contact
by benaiges
Thank you for solving our doubts and help us take advantage of our Lyon city card. The application itself was not enough to book guided visits and boat and the personal contact in your office made the difference.
Additionally and this goes to the Lyon city card, it had been better to warn us about the lack of transport and open museum in the 1st of May. We couldn´t benefit from it this day and If we had known it we have bought the card for the days that fully worked.

Was nice to walk around old Lyon.
Guide was very nice, kind and did all effort but was not speaking a good italian, so felt not confident in sharing too much info and chat: was a pity since, again, the guide was very very kind
(I would have rather prefered to have an English tour)
nice tour

I liked the tour, it was only one hour, but it was long (and short) enough to get a glimpse of vieux Lyon.
