Description

This pleasant bike ride through Lyon is a perfect chance to discover where the Canut silk workers lived!

Along with your guide you will effortlessly cycle up the Croix-Rousse hill on your electric bike. Once you reach the top, you will be able to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views over the city. Pedal a little further to come across the famous traboules, the secret passages that were historically used by the silk workers (canuts) to get to the centre of Lyon. 

Throughout the tour your guide will tell you all about the unusual history of this neighbourhood which was the stage of several historical strikes held by the silk workers.

Having explored the Croix-Rousse hill, you will head back towards Vieux Lyon, where you will be able to admire the typical Lyonnais architecture, before reaching the Presqu'île.

Your tour will end along the banks of the Rhône, a calm and peaceful area where you can admire Lyon's barges and the Presqu'île. Let yourself be swept away by the historic charm of the Gauls' capital city!

During this two-and-a-half-hour tour you will also get to sample some delicious local specialities!

Make the most of this bike tour through the heart of Lyon to discover the history of the city while tasting some of its famous local specialities!
