Lille tours

Nestled near the Belgian border, Lille is French by geography, but Flemish by design. Located at the crossroads of the Eurostar rail line connecting London, Paris and Brussels, Lille attracts travelers who come for its well-preserved 17th century buildings - and stay for the vibrant street life and delicious dining options. Take a private Lille tour and discover the city's hidden delights with a local guide. Begin at bustling Marche de Wazemmes, where you can follow your guide through vendors peddling just-picked produce and freshly-cut flowers. Stop at a sidewalk café serving picture-perfect patisseries and strong coffee, and viola - sated and caffeinated, you're ready to tackle the extensive collection of paintings housed in the Palais des Beaux-Arts. You don't have to be a military historian to appreciate a trip to Vimy Ridge, so ask your guide to arrange a day-trip from Lille that includes a private visit to the battlefields, the monument, the museum.
