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

Overview of your Lyon tour

I was raised in Lyon and I know every secret of this beautiful city. I have been guiding there for many years. The city is very beautiful and its history is very interesting. I offer this tour for travellers who want to discover a part of Lyon quickly, or those who want to be guided on a precise subject. I guide with passion and dynamism. I have a special knowledge about the general history of the city. Ideas of tours that can be done during two hours : - Old town : the Renaissance district with its traboules (can include tastings) - Old town + Peninsula : we're going from one bank to the other of the Saone river to discover the city centre and historical districts. - Confluence district : nicknammed the "laboratory of the 21st century", this is the most modern district of Lyon. - A museum : Fine arts museum, Confluences museum. . . Just tell me what you need ! The itinerary will be customized with the customer a few days in advance.
