リヨン第2次世界大戦とレジスタンスツアー（音声ガイド付き）

I expected a lot of walking on this WWII tour and when I finished, I had walked six miles, some of it up a very long steep hill. I found the general info given interesting but each number (of which there are 39) only gives you around two minutes of info. To me, this just wasn't enough with the extensive walking between points. As I began the tour in the morning, the Prison museum wasn't open and did not open until the afternoon - 1400. Perhaps it would be beneficial to reverse the tour and finish at the prison when it opens in the afternoon. In addition, some of the information could do with updating. There were several places where the info said to look out for plaques that were no longer there, and especially the secret letterbox - the door entryway is encased in security fencing and gate, but on looking in there is no plaque indicating it. Really disappointing. I also advise jumping ahead on the info as some of the numbers say, 'keeping going and turn left' or 'right', even though you are following the map via GPS. Lastly, I feel the people on the tour would benefit from visual photos from archives to see the stopping points in the era or close to the era being described. As I did the tour on a hot, sunny bustling day in the city, I found it hard to fully imagine or relate to those dark moments. Altogether, this us a surface level tour about an incredibly important time in history. A lot more info could be shared and shown, as well as updated. I would only recommend it because there isn't another.

Great way to see Lyon. Lot’s of walking involved, though. If you are not ready for a 20km plus hike, this tour is probably not for you. But for us it worked really well. The narrative is a little repetitive, though.

There is a lot of walking and the audio stops often didn’t seem to have relevance to the surroundings and pointed out very few actual landmarks. The audio also got quite repetitious. Also for others, there is no need to start at number 1 to work your way through. You can start anywhere. Also the narrator pronounced Lyon as lion throughout and it really grated.

This was a great experience. Very thorough and detailed. You can do this at your own pace. So much great info about Lyon during WW2 and resistance activity. Covers all the key areas and you can listen while you walk to each landmark. Don’t miss the end in Croix-Rousse and the traboules.

Wow, this one really hit me. I didn’t expect to feel that emotional, but the stories just pull you in. You can feel the care behind every word it’s powerful, honest, and stays with you long after.

This walk through Lyon’s World War II story truly touched me. Every street carries a memory and every corner whispers courage. The stories felt so real and emotional, like meeting the past face to face.

This experience showed a side of Lyon I hadn’t seen before. The mix of history, art, and human emotion was beautiful. It’s not about war itself but about the people who never gave up. Truly touching and worth it.

Such a lovely way to explore Lyon. You walk through charming old streets while hearing stories of real bravery. The pace is relaxed, the guide easy to follow, and every stop feels meaningful.

If you plan on doing the tour completely in 1 day, take a portable phone charger with you as the tour will deplete your phone battery before it’s over

Excellent very informative audio tour. Dictionary was clear and very well researched giving it a local perspective. Allow plenty of time and coffee stops if completing the entire tour in one go. Will take between 3 to 4 hours, but worth it.
