Overview

Were there any lions in Lyon? Why did they build so many secret passages and what kind of troubles happened in the "traboules"? Where did the kings keep their mistresses? Why is the city center sliding down the hill throughout centuries?

Join me to walk the streets that are as busy today as they were 500 years ago, see Lyon as it was at the era of Roman Empire, and hear more cool stories about this amazing city, its history, architecture and culture.

The departure time and place is flexible depending on your preferences.

Our guide Konstantine was extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of Lyon as well as being a very personable young man. We are senior citizens and he adapted the tour to our interests as well as our capabilities.

We really enjoyed our tour with Konstantin. He was friendly, engaging and full of interesting and unusual stories about Lyon. Our favorite part of the tour was the visit to the silk atelier. I also give him high marks for flexibility as we had to adapt our plans several times and he was very easygoing and happy to make changes on the fly. 10/10!

Our group of four spent the morning with Konstantin. He was on time, and he asked us what our interests were and if we had already seen parts of Lyon since he didn't want to duplicate places we had already been. He was flexible and made adjustments based on our desires. Konstantin speaks perfect English and he has a great sense of humor. He was extremely knowledgeable about French history and the history of Lyon. He shared many stories, which were entertaining and interesting. All four of us felt that the time spent with Konstantin was well worth it and extremely enjoyable. We all would highly recommend him as a private tour guide.

Highly recommend. Konstantin taught us everything we could possibly want to know about Lyon in a fun and interesting fashion. He was able to answer all of my friends' dumb questions such as the specifics of trash service in the traboules and if the Radisson building is all hotel rooms. And he was able to answer all of my smart questions about history and culture. Amazing value.
