Even if I was born in Britain I fell in love with the former 3 Gauls Capital 25 years ago after discovering the city by chance. How incredible! Travelling for 15 years all around the world as a flight attendant I decided to settle down in Lyon with my whole family in 2012. For 12 years now I have been welcoming and guiding many kind of visitors such as retired people, whole families or school groups of various ages and levels. As I can speak many differents foreign languages, it is a real pleasure for me to welcome English or German speaking travellers. And of course as a French citizen, my mother language is French. Guiding in Lyon offers a wonderfull opportunity to show aswell the extraordinary rich architecture since the Middle Ages, as to discover classical Fine-arts or modern museums. As the French capital of Gastronomy Lyon proposes an incredible range of fresh products and amazing restaurants. My major pleasure is to tell visitors the story of that typical regional tradition of gathering and eating together in our small "bouchons" restaurants. I am fond of sharing and transmitting my love for whatever makes France and especially Lyon such an amazing place to be! I can't wait meeting you soon. I passed my degree to become an international licensed tourist guide (card number GC1393024P) in 2012 at Marne-La-Vallée University (near Paris). With my degree I'm able to propose visits anywhere in France aswell in Lyon where I am settled now for 7 years as in Paris, a city I know much. I have a driving license since 1989 and able to guide driving if needed. As a former flight attendant I am skilled in providing first-aid help, which can be usefull in case of faintness. No restrictions concerning the visits I propose except my Private Tour in The Covered Market of Lyon not available on Mondays as many restaurants and shops have their day off.

Overview of your Lyon tour

The feeling of excellence is the one you will experiment discovering with me the Hall Market with its various restaurants and shops selling delicatessen meats, alive seashells, wines of the area, sweet specialties created by greatest pastry cooks. The Paul Bocuse covered market is more than a market providing the very best products. As I am fond of good food, do not hesitate to follow me in a warm and friendly place to gather and share traditions.

Your Lyon tour itinerary

As the covered market extends on 37 different shops, stops and tastings will depend on you preferences. So don't hesitate to share them with me! I will show you the Lyonnese specialties in the most famous shops, that means that we will probably wish to make a lot of stops and pictures!
