Great time on two wheels.

Jeffrey_R, Dec 2024

Tour guide was great. Went to places I would never know about. Very good explanation of the geography of the city.

Good 3hr bike ride in Lyon. Safe and good value covering about 20km over 3hrs - both electric and non available

Great for a first day look around to get bearings for Lyon. Electric bikes not really required for medium fitness but it’s lovely to click a button and go

Fun Morning Exploring Lyon

We (3 people) had a wonderful time. The bike ride was lovely and well planned out. We saw more in 3 hours than we would have on our own!

Our guide, Marie, was so enthusiastic and gave great knowledge about the City. She is a gem. Definitely recommend this tour!
