Response from Host, Jan 2026

Hello David, Thank you for the review, I'm thrilled that, despite the negative temperatures outside in December, your feeling about the tour was this much positive! All the best to you and your family!

Nice visit but big surprise on bank fee

Romuald_C, Dec 2025

Interesting tour of the traboules, on the other hand big surprise on payment with bank charges because the company must be registered in London. Very weird so and especially not indicated anywhere!!!

Best tour guide

What a great tour! Konstatin is a great guide. He had lots of information about Lyon, and he’s quite articulate. He is interested in history and knows much about it. We especially enjoyed the basilica and the nearby ruins. And the tranboules! A highlight of our visit to Lyon.
