As all of our excursions are personalised, we like to inquire to the individual interests starting from the first contact to get a general idea and start planning a general idea of the upcoming visit. Upon arrival in the region and prior to the visit, we always propose to meet the guest over a nice glass of wine or a cup of coffee (our treat) to truly fine tune their experience to them. The excursion usually starts around 9:30 a.m. and will last about 8 hours. Once more, each visit is unique and can be based upon a theme such as landscapes and Heritage, Legends and Castles, Tastings at and Discoveries of the vineyards and Provençal markets, Art, literature, Crafts, Folklore and the Provençal, Occitan and Roman Cultures. As we are not a company, but a registered not-for-profit cultural association having begun our activities in 2004, our local members who volunteer to accompany visitors are passionate about the history, culture and language of the region.

After having been a professional guide for several years in the south of France, I am now an official guide for the city of Lyon. Driven by the same passion for 20 years, I am waiting for you in Lyon to help you discover the entire city, listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. We will use the funicular to travel between Fourvière hill and Old Lyon. If you wish, we can also discover the Presqu'île district and the Croix Rousse district together. As an official guide, I will of course adapt to all your desires and will not fail to show you the gastronomic specialties of Lyon, as well as recommend its best restaurants. Also, there will be no waiting time to enter the monuments during the entire tour. We can meet wherever you want in Lyon. Best regards Roman
