It 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!

Fabulous tour. Tony's knowledge and passion for the history of Lyon is commendable. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. He is friendly and engaging and very attentive to giving recommendations for other things to see, where to eat and how better to enjoy Lyon.

Tony was a wonderful host! He offered a blend of history, tales from his family (the grandmother's know all), with an engaging series walk through some of the most beautiful areas of this amazing city. Lots of great recommendations and guidance! I highly recommend!

Like 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!
