5.00The pedi-cab tour was the perfect activity on the afternoon we first landed in Lyon, after an overnight flight. The operator was super knowledgeable. And we felt like we learned a lot… without ever leaving our seats. For the price, it totally exceeded my expectations.

5.00We had a fabulous tour around Vieux Lyon (the old town) with our guide, Michael. Michael was extremely knowledge and friendly and answered all our questions. He pointed out extremely interesting elements of Lyon we would not have seen or experienced otherwise. From seeing a silk loom, to the traboules, the history of the Lumière brothers and so much more. Best guided tour we have ever been on. Can’t recommend this tour and our guide highly enough.
Take the Pedicab!

5.00My sister and I had a great time on our Pedicab tour today. Our guide was very knowledgable about the history of Lyon and showed us all the historical sights. We added a few other sights that we asked to see. He also gave us some suggestions for after the tour we thoroughly enjoyed too.
Had a great two-hour...

5.00Had a great two-hour tour. A great way to get out of the Lyon summer heat and save your energy for the rest of the day. Great tour guides making sure we got to see the most important parts of Old Lyon we would have probably missed otherwise.
