5.00I'm a professional travel advisor and rarely write reviews unless something is extraordinary (good or bad). Toni (guide) and his wife (back office) are extraordinary. Communication before the tour was outstanding. They also followed up after the tour with all the recommendations that they promised us. We were here during a particularly busy time and Toni extended the tour to ensure we saw everything and answer all the questions. He learned everyone's names and really tried to make the experience personal. This is the walking tour you should do in Lyon.

5.00It was a spectacular tour! Tony, though not a local, knew a lot about the history of Lyon! He took care to introduce himself and we all introduced ourselves and during the tour tried to talk a little with each one! Subsequently sent tips about what we showed interest in Lyon and in our case also from Annecy that we would go the next day!
Tony was an excellent...

5.00Like any famous tourist attraction in Lyon, this walking tour by Toni is a must do for anyone visiting Lyon for holidays or just want to know more about Lyon. He takes you through all the key spots in Lyon, through secret passageways and off the beaten path to explain Lyon's history in an entertaining way, with plenty of humour. Lyon is beautiful city but from this tour, you get to know about the proud history, the significance of various monuments and the fascinating culture embedded in these neighborhoods and streets. The pacing of the tour is great and Toni takes great care engaging everyone, answering everyone's questions and sharing his recommendations. The 3 hours went by in a breeze and finished like a great movie!
