5.00We had such a fantastic time on this bike tour of Lyon! Our guide, Shirine, was amazing! super friendly, fun, and full of knowledge about the city and its history. She showed us places we never would have found on our own, including the stunning city park which was a real highlight. I’m not an experienced rider and was a little nervous about the Saturday traffic, but I felt safe with Shirine leading the way. The E bikes were top quality and so easy to ride – it made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. This tour was one of the best things we did in Lyon. Highly recommend!
Easier than expected.

5.00Alex was our tour guide. He did a great job as a guide and keeping all the bikers safe and together. The bike route was mainly flat. It was a beautiful ride. A great way to see several sites in Lyon. The electric assisted bikes were in good shape and easy to use. I highly recommend this tour for bike riders.

5.00My husband and I did this bike tour immediately upon arriving in Lyon and were very grateful for Alex leading us through the city. He kept us safe, the e-bikes were super easy to use, and taught us a lot about the history of Lyon. The highlight for me was getting to bike all around Parc Tête d’or. He also gave some great recommendations for places to check out while we in Lyon. I highly recommend this tour!
