“Charlotte is a good guide. She explains the history of Lyon in clear English and took care of everyone well despite of the morning rains. The reason we don't think it is worth 5 star is the price of the tour for the food and restaurants offered. Would have been a better experience if a more beautiful setting restaurant with 2 or 3 courses set lunch is catered on top of the sweet treats picked up along the way.”
