LYON DISCOVERY

 

 

 

" There is a place, a city amongst many where the antagonism between the two ages, between the old times spirit and the new spirit results in all its greatness. This city raises in my soul some inexplicably powerful emotion...neither Paris nor Rome hold over me this power of mysterious fascination...this city is LYON... "
(Jules MICHELET)

City fo contrasts, Lyon has embraced the Dolce Vità and is opened to contemporary tourism.
We suggest making straight for the essential, while still soaking up the florentine gentleness of our city.

 

 

HALF A DAY'S PROGRAMM :

To start with, a heartfelt welcome over a cup of coffee, in order for us to give you the customary recommendations as well as hand over the material you will need for the itinerary quiz-game.
Then the teams' departures are staggered and the urban adventure is all yours !

All through the morning, or afternoon, our itinerary's emphasis will be on historical details and anecdotes.
This hike offers a fun discovery of the cultural and historical landmarks of Lyon :
- Fourvière
- the Renaissance Quarter and its " traboules " (covered passageways)
- the Presqu'île
As well as little-known " traboules ", courtyards and monuments.

Various samplings of lyonese food specialities will be offered.

To close the day, a cocktail will gather all participants upon arrival, a favoured time to share and discuss the day's emotions. We shall then proceed to the teams' placing and hand out diplomas of " Lyonnitude ".
