Highly recommend this tour of Lyon!! - Toni was an amazing tour guide! He was thoughtful, knowledgeable of the history of Lyon and took us to many sights we would have missed if we were on our own. His suggestions for restaurants and what to do with our remaining time in Lyon were very helpful. Highly recommend this tour, do it early in your stay if possible. Exceptional value and a really good time!

A Wonderful Way to Discover Lyon! - This walking tour was one of the best parts of our trip! Toni is a fantastic guide—warm, funny, and full of fascinating stories that span from Roman Gaul to modern Lyon. He has a real gift for weaving history, architecture, and local anecdotes together in a way that feels both engaging and personal. I loved how he took the time to connect with each person in our small group, which made exploring the Old Town’s hidden passages and charming corners feel extra special. The family touch from Maud and Toni makes all the difference. Maud’s communication before and after the tour was so thoughtful, and Toni even sent us follow-up tips for where to eat, shop, and explore next. If you want a tour that blends history, local secrets, and genuine hospitality—this is it. Merci, Maud & Toni!

Highly recommended tour - Toni was a perfect guide - he knew the history and architecture, but at the same time, he had local fun facts and jokes to share. He also gave recommendations on restaurants and other things to do. The tour covered enough sites and was nicely paced. The group was not too big (10). I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to others as well.

Toni provided an... - Toni provided an exceptional historical view of the city. He took an interest in each person to make sure that they were satisfied. For example, my husband is interested architecture and building. Toni made sure that he pointed out various buildings and spoke about their structure. He also forwarded recommendations to each attendee based on their vacation. In our case, recommendations for Marseille. We wouldn’t have enjoyed or appreciated Lyon the way we do due to Toni’s explanations.
