Ce monument impressionnant a été construit en 1184 et a servi d’hôpital pendant plus de 800 ans ! Aujourd'hui hôtel 5 étoiles et centre commercial, ces murs abritent de nombreux récits historiques et légendes.
La Croix-Rousse et ses coteaux sont classés au patrimoine de l'UNESCO. La Croix-Rousse est l'ancien quartier ouvrier de Lyon qui abritait les Canuts (ou canuts lyonnais).
Cette fresque réalisée en 1995 représente 2000 ans d'histoire mettant en scène 25 personnages historiques et 6 contemporains lyonnais. Certaines des représentations les plus remarquables sont les frères Lumière, Antoine de St-Exupéry et le Petit Prince et Paul Bocuse.
La plus belle place de Lyon abrite l'Hôtel de Ville, le Musée des Beaux-Arts et l'époustouflante Fontaine Bartholdi. C'est l'endroit idéal pour prendre des photos, apprendre des histoires et des légendes intéressantes, mais aussi faire une pause et prendre un verre.
Le Palais de Justice et sa passerelle forment une paire de deux monuments emblématiques de la ville. Depuis la passerelle, les visiteurs peuvent voir au loin le long de la rivière Soane, au cœur même de la ville.
Située au cœur de la vieille ville, cette cathédrale est une structure impressionnante. Construit sur trois siècles à partir de 1175, il présente un mélange de styles gothique et roman et abrite une horloge astronomique du XVIe siècle.
En tant que plus grande place piétonne d'Europe, la place Bellecour est entourée d'histoire, nouvelle et ancienne. Ici vous pouvez voir la statue récemment rénovée du roi Louis XIV, l'Institut Paul Bocuse et un mémorial à Antoine de St-Exupéry.
Enfin, nous terminerons notre voyage à La Confluence. Le caractère unique de la géographie de Lyon est démontré par les deux voies navigables entre lesquelles est construit le cœur de la ville ; au confluent les deux eaux ne font plus qu'une. Cela donne également une vue parfaite sur l'architecture déconstructiviste du quartier et sur le musée qui s'y trouve.

A wonderful bike tour. Frank was very knowledgeable and just fun to be with. Highly recommend this tour to get a good view of Lyon.
Hi Joe, You and Dee were an absolute pleasure to have on our tour. Thank you for your kind words and I'm glad that I got to show you Lyon the best way 🚲😉
A great way to experience Lyon and learn about the history including some quirky stories. Frank was an excellent guide and very good at explaining all the sites. Loved our morning on the E-bikes.

Hi Phil and Mary, Thank you for your kind words 😊 It was a pleasure to take you both around Lyon and show you some of it's hidden beauty. Until next time, Frank 🚲😁
I can't say enough good things about Frank, the owner of Holland Bike Tours. It was pouring rain with thunder and lightning the day of our tour and we asked to reschedule the next day in the morning. He was more than accommodating! The next day was beautiful and our bike ride was awesome!! Michel thank you for a wonderful tour of Lyon on bicycles!!
Hi Patricia, you and Jeanette were a pleasure to have in Lyon 😊. Thank you for your kind review and I hope the rest of your trip was amazing. I will pass on your experience to Michiel as well! 🚲😊🚲
Lyon is a great city to explore by bike with lots of bike paths and we really enjoyed this tour. Our guide, Frank, was friendly and informative about the history of Lyon. The bikes were all new Dutch style e-bikes, which were very comfortable and easy to operate. My wife was a bit nervous at first having never ridden an e-bike, but with Frank’s reassurance and care she soon got the hang of it.
Hi Oliver and Christine, It was an absolute pleasure having you here in Lyon for our tour. Please return again or check out one of our other locations around France (or NYC!). Cheers, Frank 😊🚲
Sarah, our tour operator, was fantastic, very knowledgeable and good company for 2.5 hours. We saw everything we would want to see via push bike in Lyon. Our hire bikes were easy to ride too! Richard and Michelle Avalon NSW Australia
Richard and Michelle, Thank you for your kind words, I will be sure to let Sarah know. We are happy that you enjoyed your tour of our beautiful city. Cheers, Frank
Beautiful trip on very good bikes through wonderful Lyon. Very rewarding. If the guide knew a little more special facts, the tour would get 5 stars.
Hallo Monique, Bedankt voor je beoordeling van onze tour. Onze tour bevat inderdaad een algemene presentatie van de stad met ook wat unieke geschiedenis. Dat gezegd hebbende, kunnen we zeker werken aan meer interessante feiten als onderdeel van de belangrijkste gespreksonderwerpen als we streven naar perfectie. Fijne dag 😊🚲
We didn’t go on the bike tour but rented the high quality Holland brand. So many cities have the standard rental bikes that are not good touring bikes but the Holland made the ride more enjoyable. We hired the standard gazelle and the e-bike. I must say how impressed we were with Frank who was very knowledgeable and flexible for our needs. He made sure we were outfitted with helmets and gave us all the information for touring Lyon, including his Kamoot tour route. I will look forward to another ride with Hollland!
Hi Michael and Wendy, Thank you for your kind review 😁 I'm glad that you enjoyed our bikes and the custom routes. Please don't hesitate to stop by again or to check out one of our other locations on your adventures! Thanks, Frank 😊🚲
Very warm welcome by Frank and the two guides, all bikes in prefect condition and all well explained by Frank, very flexible and supportive! He even organised the sunshine for our tour, at arrival it was raining. A great experience to better discover Lyon by bike, this special and beautiful city has a lot to offer. We had the privilege of two guides, both well prepared and well informed about the broad outlines concerning urban developments to the minute details concerning the years. A winner and afterwards enjoy the gastronomy!
I can't promise to stop the rain every time 🤣 Thank you for your review, I'm happy that we were able to make your experience in Lyon a pleasant one. Until next time, Frank 😊🚲
We were a small group and our guide was very cool. Lyon is very bike friendly (some occasional cobblestone streets) and it was a very nice experience to be able to go from one place to another so conveniently!
Thanks for the review! See you next time 😊🚲
