Great tour! Toni was very knowledgeable and friendly. He gave my husband and I an appreciation for Lyon that we might not otherwise have. In the 3 hours, he took us to so many cool spots around different parts of the city, all while explaining the history and sharing cool facts. The fact that the tour group is only 10 people made the experience even better because it was more intimate and conversational. I love that Toni also took the time to chat with each pair in the group to get to know us and share a bit about himself. I highly recommend this tour!

The walking tour was fantastic. Our guide Toni was amazing. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and provided us with a ton of information about to make the most of our trip to Lyon. I highly recommend this tour. Seeing the old town and taking the funicular up to see 2000 year old Roman ruins was amazing.
An interesting look into the history of Vieux Lyon

Toni was an excellent tour guide showing the group highlights of Lyon’s Vieille Ville. Passionate and very knowledgeable, he went far and beyond our expectations. Answered our questions, shared secrets of the city’s history and gave us great recommendations as to culinary and cultural experiences in Lyon and beyond.

Toni's excellent tour

Toni gave us a fantastic tour of largely the old section of Lyon. His knowledge of Lyon's history and how Lyon operates was fascinating and enjoyable. He is a delightful person, engaged directly with each member of the group, and followed up with lots of recommendations. We are so glad to have booked this tour to share with our father and partner. This was also a good tour for elderly folks who cannot walk fast - even though we covered a lot of territory, it was at a reasonable pace with lots of stopping to view highlights and hear about the history and architecture. In case this is useful information, in addition to French and English, he speaks Spanish. Thanks so much, Toni!

This tour alone may be worth the trip to France. Or at least Lyon. We all know that tour guides make or break the experience - Tony demonstrates the best guide skills I've ever encountered; his nuanced blend of useful facts woven into a tapestry of useful history and humor kept us spell-bound. We bombarded him with questions and he deftly responded, adding colorful details and perspective. As my 85 year old mother's last international adventure, I wanted every day to be perfect; she loved every moment with Tony and we wish we'd recorded it. We literally walked out of our subsequent tour (which cost double) because we found it shallow and boring. Don't miss the time with Tony.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
