Points forts

Put Your Shoes On and Follow Me exploring Lyon’s gems! Take a stroll through the streets of the slopes of Croix-Rousse hill to relive the golden age of silk, recall the silk workers revolts (Canuts), take secret passageways along typical architectural buildings and discover key street art highlights. Guided by a true Lyon native grew up eating pike quenelle and runny St Marcelin cheese, you’ll gain a deeper, more intimate understanding of the city and the people who keep these streets alive. Fun facts are included as well as one coffee or tea at the end of the tour My personal touch: Focusing on a slow pace away from the tourists rush.

About Lyon

Lyon, where the Rhône and Saône meet, is a Roman and Renaissance city of covered passageways, long called the capital of French cooking.

Lyon spreads across two rivers and two hills. On Fourvière hill, the white basilica looks down over the Roman theatres of Lugdunum, once the capital of Gaul, while the Renaissance old town below has narrow streets and covered passageways, the traboules, that silk workers used to carry cloth. The old town and the slopes of Croix-Rousse, the silk weavers' hill, are part of the UNESCO-listed historic site.

Top-ranked sights in Lyon: Old Lyon (Vieux Lyon), Traboules of Lyon, Lyon Cathedral (Cathédrale St-Jean).
