Description
Lyon, renowned as the “Capital of Lights,” presents a breathtaking spectacle as the sun sets over its lively thoroughfares. From the summit of Fourvière Hill, behold the captivating sunset casting vibrant hues of orange and red upon the Peninsula’s facades.
Our journey begins with a visit to the iconic Basilica Notre Dame de Fourvière, followed by an exploration of the UNESCO-protected Old Town, where Renaissance architecture gracefully comes to life in the evening glow.
As we traverse the Saone River, panoramic vistas unveil Lyon’s eclectic neighborhoods, encompassing the historic Old Town and the picturesque Fourvière and Croix Rousse Hills.
Adapting our itinerary to your preferences, we wander through the city’s rhythm, culminating in a delightful stop at a cozy bar, where a tantalizing tasting board of cheese, charcuterie, and a glass of wine awaits.
JOHN RUNDA –
Jeremie guided us on a fantastic experience of the Lights of Lyon. We met him at the Basilica just before sundown, and as we looked to the East, we saw the sun shining on snow covered Mont Blanc over 100 km away. Our guide was totally focused on our desires and wishes. We walked past the Roman circus and into the Old Town where we were treated to a wonderful charcuterie at a bouchon. We highly recommend this tour of The Lights of Lyon and in particular, our guide, Jeremie.
