5.00Did the tour for the old part of the city. Went through the trouble passageways, saw Cathederal, had pastry from guide. Old section close to newer Rue Republic street. Passages fascinating as was the old town. Lots of interesting places to shop and eat. Couple of pubs as well. One Irish and one US. Great day

5.00Quentin is an amazing tour guide, you can really tell his love for the city and his love for sharing his hometown with us. He was happy to not only provide us info but give advice on restaurants/places to try and helping to avoid tourist traps. This is a must whether youre in Lyon for just 24h or a month I would 100% recomend!
Truly enjoyable experience!

5.00Quentin is an excellent guide; personable, knowledgeable and humorous. He takes great care to ensure everyone in the group is recognized and included. The tour was more encompassing and informative than expected because of him. On a rainy Sunday in Lyon, Quentin kept us all engaged and sorry to see the tour end.
High recommendation

5.00I booked the tour to get an overview of Lyon at the start of my stay. Quentin had already provided information in advance and, due to the rainy weather forecast, confirmed again that the tour would take place. Ten of us then spent two hours walking through Lyon. With great wit and charm, Quentin introduced us to his city, gave us tips and advice on choosing restaurants, and explained both historical and current facts. He was very attentive, had umbrellas for everyone, handed out an information sheet with recommendations and tips, and offered to answer any further questions afterward via WhatsApp. A fantastic experience that I wholeheartedly recommend!
Through the highlights with charm, wit and knowledge
