Great experience, very complete tour of Lyon accompanied by information and interactions from our superb guide Maëva. We enjoyed this moment very much , the 3 hours pass very quickly and the electric bike is a real plus that allows to cross the city in a short time and without tiring. Thank you to Maëva and her team for their welcome!
Maeva, our guide was great! Friendly, polite, well-informed, funny and super professional, took great care of us. The best way to enjoy Lyon!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 😊 We’re happy to hear you had such a great time with Maëva. during your bike tour. We’re glad you felt well taken care of and enjoyed discovering the city with us. Hope to see you again on another bike tour of Lyon! 😎
Very nice bike tour good to see then main attractions of the city. Mathieu has been a very good guide. Helpful and clear explanations
Thank you for your kind review! 😊 We’re so glad you enjoyed discovering Lyon’s main attractions with us. Mathieu will be happy to know his explanations and guidance made the tour even more enjoyable. We’d love to welcome you back for another ride! 🚴♂️✨
The bikes are ok. Riding down the river was pleasant. However, the tour guide needed a lot of help with his basic English from another customer who had to translate for him. Otherwise we struggled to understand him. He lacked knowledge about Lyon and enthusiasm and had to follow his phone for directions sometimes. We missed two stops (the Old Town and a large Square) out altogether. We’ve done quite a few city cycle tours and this was the worst. It wasn’t the guide’s fault. He needs more training and English lessons to justify £48 a person.
Dear David, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience with us did not meet your expectations. Please accept our sincere apologies for the issues you encountered during the tour. We are currently investigating what happened on the day of your tour. We are concerned to learn that you struggled to understand the guide, we completely understand how disappointing this must have been. But he had done many tours with English speakers and everyone could understand him… For your information, cycling is not ideal in the narrow and crowded streets of the Old Town (Vieux-Lyon), which is why the tour did not go through them. However, you did ride alongside the area and received an explanation about this historic district. As for Bellecour Square (the « large square »), it is currently under construction, and we felt there was little value in stopping there, especially as it could have been perceived as unsafe. We genuinely appreciate your honest review, as it helps us improve. If you ever return to Lyon, we would love to have the opportunity to offer you a better experience. Best regards,
It doesn't go to sites in Old Town Lyon but rather more modern attractions across the city. The route covers 15 miles.
Thank you John for your review. Yes indeed, we do not go inside the Old Town because it is not accessible by bike 😉 But we still see the Vieux-Lyon, and we talked about it. Have a nice day !
Lea was our guide, and she was excellent. An easy pace around the city with interesting information. I highly recommend doing this tour as you gain a very good insight and feel for the history and layout of the city.
Thank you very much for your review ! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour ! See you another time.

This guided experience provided an excellent geographic, cultural and historic orientation to the city of Lyon. A highlight on Sunday morning was seeing how the Lyonnaise enjoy the rivers, parks and paths in the urban environment.
Thank you so much! We were glad to show you our beautiful city! Hope to see you again!
