Explore Lyon's UNESCO-listed Renaissance quarter and the gilded Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière with a passionate expert guide — entirely private, entirely at your pace. Roman ruins, secret traboules, and panoramic city views make this unmissable.
What to expect
Your private expert guide meets you in Vieux Lyon, ducking through candlelit traboules — the secret Renaissance passageways connecting courtyards — before ascending Fourvière Hill to the breathtaking Basilica. You'll stand amid Roman theatre ruins dating to 15 BC, then take in a panoramic sweep of the city where the Rhône and Saône meet. The tour closes with an insider's take on Lyon's silk-weaving Croix-Rousse district and its Mur des Canuts mural.
Good to know
Tours run 3 hours; book well in advance as private slots fill fast. The Basilica is open 8am–7pm. Fourvière Hill involves some uphill walking — wear comfortable shoes. Easy to combine with a Les Halles market visit before all-aboard.
