Toni was a fantastic tour guide. We learned so much about Old Lyon. Very interesting. He and Maude are a great team. - We had a delightful time on this tour. Toni and Maude were friendly, accommodating and did everything to make our tour (and our stay in Lyon) pleasant and convenient (they even gave us suggestions for Chamonix, Geneva and Annecy). They gave excellent directions to places in Lyon--including restaurants and to public transportation We cannot recommend Toni as a tour guide enough!

Excellant Guide and Tour - Tony is a fantastic, knowledgeable, funny and very personable guide. You can tell that each tour is unique based on his audience and their needs or expectations. Some in our group were leaving the city within a day or two, while others were staying for than a week. He made sure to check everyone’s boxes to ensure their stay in Lyon was the best it could be. He showed interest in each individual without detract from the overall tour. Having the tour limited to 10 or less is perfect. As we could ask questions and have conversations while still seeing all the necessary sites. I highly recommend Tony and Maud’s tour.

Sightseeing par excellence - 5 stars!!! A very clear recommendation for the tour with Toni and the organisation by Maud as well as the many other tips after the tour. This shows the difference to other guided groups, which we were also able to observe from a distance on this day. It was a special educational trip with lots of humour, warmth, a personal touch and interest in each individual participant.

Great tour guide, wonderful scenery! - Toni was passionate and enthusiastic about his city and this showed through. He was warm and friendly, taking time to talk to each member of the group. It was a very interesting and beautiful tour, sometimes going off the tourist trail to avoid busy streets, and finding some hidden gems. The old streets and then the views are amazing. Maud was also very accommodating when we wanted to change times, and great with communication before and after. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent guide and thorough tour! - This tour was excellent! Our guide, Toni, was friendly and knowledgable. We learned so much about Lyon! Toni got to know each of us and answered all of our questions. He was even able to give us great food, drink, and museum recommendations. The tour size was small and perfect for walking the streets of Lyon. The tour had a great pace that let us visit a lot of the city in around three hours, but was slow enough that everyone could walk at a comfortable pace. I would recommend this tour for anyone visiting.
