Hello there ! I am Jérémie, full-time tour guide and holder of the professional Tour Guide card. I was born in Lyon in 1990 and I'm still in love with my hometown city. When I was a kid, I spent a lot of time exploring my city, reading stories about it, hearing my grand-mother telling me how the city was when she was my age. That's how you fall in love with a city. When I was 18, I went to University of Lyon to study History. I studied History for five years, lived in Canada for one year, then one year in Australia, came back here, graduated, and became a professional tour guide. Now, I'm working as a full time tour guide in and around my hometown. Best job ever if you ask me, especially when you're passionate about something: telling you all the stories I've learnt that make me think that Lyon and it's surrounding area is the best place in the world. So now, I'd like to welcome you in my city. I propose you a unique guided experience in Lyon private tours. Discover the hidden parts of Lyon that few people know about. Step back in time and follow me into the footsteps of the Canuts (the old silk weaving workers), in the traboules (secret passageways) of the Old Lyon or enjoy the lookouts over the city right next to the old roman vestiges of the Fourvière hill. I'm also doing wine and food tours. We're very lucky to have amazing wine countries right outside Lyon: Beaujolais in the North and Rhone valley wines in the south. Discover the Lyon countryside, as beautiful as ever, and rich in historical, culinary and wine-growing heritage. From the Beaujolais hills to the steep slopes of Côtes-Rôties, vineyards and winegrowers sublimate a terroir shaped for millennia. All of my tours can be tailored to your preferences. My goal for you is to enjoy a real experience with a local! 2008 - Bachelor Degree 2011 - Bachelor Licence of History University Lyon 2 2013 - Master Degree of History Université du Québec à Rimouski 2014 - Master Degree of History University Lyon 2 2015 - Professionnal Bachelor Licence of Tour Guide (Guide Conférencier) I do not have any restriction

Lyon is a wonderful city but the countryside surrounding it is even more special.Jeremie- who toured with us even though it was his birthday- showed us villages of beautiful yellow stone with golden vineyards nearby.He introduced us to the vineyard owner and we had an excellent lunch. Given our age we appreciated that he had a car to take us where we wanted to go and he retrieved his car to take us up a hill when I was tiring.A young man himself he knows how to accomodate seniors.We had a very fine day together.

Great tour with Jeremie. The tour led us to Oingts which was spectacular and then to a local vineyard to sample some great wine. I would highly recommend a tour with him very knowledgeable of the history surrounding the region.

I and two of daughters had a wonderful winery visiting with Jeremie. He was a professional, knowledgeable, guest-oriented, humorous guide who make your tour more unique than ever. I especially liked the tiny beautiful village called "Oingt" and the family-run winery. There he would tell you stories of the village and wine making. Without him, I could have never reached out to such a hidden gem of Beaujolais I am not much of an alcohol person but did I enjoy his excursion. Merci, Jeremie

Jeremie was a wonderful tour guide. He provided clear communications in advance of our trip. We started the day with a visit to Oingt, which is a charming medieval town in the Beaujolais region. Jeremie was knowledgeable and provided interesting information. Afterwards, we drove to a small winery, where we learned about the winemaking process and tasted several interesting wines from the region. Jeremie again was very knowledgeable and a great host. We would highly recommend him and this tour!

Custom tour to Pouilly/Solutre region from Lyon. Jeremie is very knowledgeable about the area and especially the vineyards- he told is about the vines and process to prune. We walked around the Rock of Solutre; he told us the history. Highlight was visit to L'Atrium to taste the 5 regions of the Pouilly appellation. It was a wonderful tour and all that was requested. I would definitely recommend and us him again.

Jeremie listens to his clients and adjusts itineraries to make the perfect experience. Our day in Beaujolais country was memorable, a full day exploration of the small villages and country side we wanted so much to see. The usual tour would have been several wineries, but we were more interested in seeing more of Beaujolais, and Jeremie did just that. He did include one very special winery, run by a delightful family. Again, a memorable day in every way. Thank you, Jeremie!
