Hello and welcome, happy travelers! My name is Clémence, a licensed professional guide specializing in Lyon and the beautiful Rhône-Alpes region. Born in the French Alps and raised between countryside and city life, I developed an early fascination for heritage and storytelling. Childhood visits to historic castles with guided tours sparked what later became my vocation. After studying Tourism, I became a guide in 2011, combining my love for history, culture, and human connection. Since then, I’ve had the chance to meet travelers from all over the world, which continuously enriches my perspective and keeps my work inspiring. I am based just outside Lyon, one of France’s most remarkable cities, and I offer a wide range of tours there and in the surrounding region. My main interests include gastronomy, Roman and medieval history, WW2 history, landscapes, photography, arts and crafts, and music. I enjoy showing both iconic highlights and authentic local places such as markets, hidden streets, and everyday neighborhoods. My guiding style is dynamic, friendly, and tailored to your interests. I aim to go beyond dates and facts by sharing how people live here, what makes this region unique, and what might surprise you as a visitor. I also place great importance on flexibility and personalization — your experience is always my priority. Feel free to contact me for any special request. I will be happy to design a fully customized tour for you. I look forward to meeting you! Clémence

A tour for all the gourmets who also really wish to discover the french capital of gastronomy, its heritage and the life of the locals! I am passionate and I know (almost) everything about History and french gastronomy, so don't hesitate to follow me! The first part of the tour is a stroll through the World Heritage Site : if you are curious to learn about the History of Lyon, but would like also to enter a few local shops to taste the specialties! I will show you the famous "traboules" in the beautiful old town, we will cross an outdoor market (morning only). And we will finish the tour at the covered market for a real immersion into the gastronomy of Lyon with another tasting and the tour of the market! The sight, smell and taste: your senses will be delighted!
Please note that this tour cannot be done on monday and sunday afternoon. • We will start on "place Bellecour", in the centre of Lyon. I'll Introduce you the city and its well-known gastronomy. We will start by visiting a chocolate shop. • Then we will go to the "old town", the Renaissance quarter : you will learn the history of the city, and see a part of its heritage. • After that we will cross the river and we will visit the lively outdoor market. • Then we'll catch a bus to go to "Les Halles Paul Bocuse" : the indoor market, nicknammed "the belly of Lyon" and enjoy several tastings in this beautiful place.
