Easy introduction to the city. Wife has mobility issues and this gave us an opportunity to see places that would have been difficult for her to walk to. Our guide, Mickel, was friendly and spoke good English. We would recommend.

Michael was an excellent guide and very informative. Ask for him if possible! The tour was comfortable and we experienced a lot of Lyon in just two hours

We are so thrilled to have taken this 2hr tour. Michael is superb! He is personable, good English and does not rush. The time flew by and not having to walk enabled us to cover a lot of ground! I truly recommend this tour with Michael as your guide!!

Michael provided a great tour, he took us around old Lyon and shared some of its history, including some of the technical aspects (which I liked) of its architectural history.
Michael was also very accommodating and was able to provide the tour we had scheduled during a holiday period.

Our guide Michael was so knowledgeable and took us to see areas of Lyon we may not have found on our own, like the wonderful traboules or hidden passageways. He brought us to Saint-Georges, a beautiful silk shop that houses an old silk weaving loom. So interesting! Lyon has so much to offer and the pedicab tour was a unique way to see it.

Great tour. Having just arrived, a bit jet lagged and new to Lyon we thought a pedicab tour would be a good start. It did not disappoint. Learned a lot about Lyon history as we were biked around Lyon. Were able to ride on the pedestrian streets, off-limits to car and bus tours. Highly recommend the two-hour tour.

Guide was great and pickup location is very easy to find, right next to the metro station.
The Pedicab is a great way to see Lyon, if not it will involve quite a bit of walking. The 2 hour tour was just nice!

Unfortunately because there was a forecast for heavy rain and thunderstorms the provider should have just canceled our tour. When I contacted him two hours before our late afternoon start time with major concerns about the weather forecast issues he replied that here was no worry of getting wet because his cycle had cover and he would not cancel and refund our fee. Therefore we were forced to give it a go….
WELL, there was a top cover with wide open sides and as soon as we boarded there developed an intense lightening and thunderstorm with downpours soaking us to the bone!! I even used my umbrella to try and cover the one side opening which was unsuccessful. He continued the tour through this unacceptable situation for about 20 minutes and we stopped him to ask to just return us to our close by hotel and consider a refund.
He did not like that idea and the rain subsided slightly so he continued for another 40 minutes again through more downpours until we finally couldn’t take it any longer and told him to just take us to the hotel now, which he did.
This finally ended a completely miserable trip!!
I have not seen even a partial refund which would have been the professional thing to do!!
