Great tour full of interesting sites! - We loved our tour! Didac was knowledgeable and kept the tour at the right pace. We saw more than we expected and he even got us a local pastry to share. He really connected well with us (my husband and our 25 year old daughter.) He took us to so many places and offered tons of recommendations for more things to do in Lyon. The traboules, Roman ruins, silk industry stops, cathedrals and puppet stops were great. There were lots of little stops along the way too. Highly recommend!!

We only had one morning... - We only had one morning and the walking tour with Didac was perfect for us. He brought us some nice pastries for breakfast and squeezed in many sights and was full of enthusiasm and knowledge of Lyon.

Lyon The Trinite (George, Paul, and John :) ) - Our guide Didac was amazing. Extremely personable and knowledgeable and he tailored the tour to us as we went along. We had a really great time. He went above and beyond for us.

Fabulous introduction to Lyon with a great guide. - Amazing tour! Our guide, Diego, was extremely knowledgable and well prepared. He worked around some significant environmental issues (rain and a huge marathon with over 15,000 participants at the same time as our tour). He was an excellent translator as we watched a Roman trial, handled all the logistics of getting to the sites, and timed the trip perfectly to see the astronomical clock. Learned a lot about Lyon's famous sites and would definitely recommend this tour. Well worth the money.

Great and informative tour - Wonderful tour! We were able to see some fascinating parts of Lyon that we otherwise would have walked right past. Our house was so knowledgeable and kind. This was a wonderful way to learn about the city and it's secrets.

Old Lyon comes to life! - Our guide, Jean (Didac), was incredible. He was very flexible when we were delayed in traffic and met us at our hotel, which was very close to the designated pickup point. He loves the incredible city of Lyon and is anxious to share its' history and his stories. We saw so much in 2 hours, it was nearly information overload! It was well worth the time and cost and we would, obviously, highly recommend it.

Rushed and incomplete, we do not recommend as private tour. - For the price of a private tour we felt rushed and only got a portion of the tour. The guide seemed nice enough and we were ok with a slightly speedier tour but this was ridiculous for the full price we paid. There were suppose to be gondola tickets included which he handed us and told us we go on our own the next day, the problem was the tickets were not paid for as he gave us old tickets. Our tour got pushed forward because the guide double booked another tour this was not our responsibility for their poor management. Although we explained when we would get in and we agreed a bit earlier it even felt more rushed only because the tour guide had his other tour. If you can’t comfortably give us the full tour then do not give the tour. We didn’t receive a discount or anything but only got a portion of the tour and not working tickets. I do not recommend for a private tour we felt like we got taken advantage of for our time and our money.
