Why should you join our free walking tours?

The concept of free walking tour is really famous around the world but not so famous in France. That’s why we created our own, here in Lyon. Because in my opinion, this is the best way to discover a city.

All our tours are fun, informative and really friendly. The goal is to enjoy our time together while I’ll show you the reasons why Lyon is the best city in the world!. We’ll talk together, I’ll give you advices and all information you need to navigate in the city and have a better understanding of its history and actual shape and culture.

Our goal is not to give you a lesson of history or to bother you with thousands of dates but just to tell you the best anecdotes about the city to help you to dive in Lyon. We always thought that the best way to learn is to have fun. So, that’s what we’re doing on our tours!
