Must-See in Lyon

About this activity

If you stay in Lyon only for a weekend and you don’t want to miss anything, this tour is for you! Discover most of the monuments you can't miss during your trip in Lyon.

Starting in Place Bellecour, we will discover the emblematic squares and streets of the peninsula : Place des Célestins and place des Jacobins. Then, we will cross the Saône river to wander in the Old-Lyon, this very well preserved Renaissance neighborhood. Immerge in the buzzing streets and explore the famous traboules! Back on the peninsula, we will discover the edge of the slopes of Croix-Rousse hill. This represents the life of the Canuts, the silk workers.

The tour ends in Place des Terreaux to enjoy the City Hall square.
