We only had a half day in Lille so we booked a tour. The car was comfortable and fun. Raphy was a good driver and very entertaining. He took wonderful photos of the car and us. We were left with a very positive impression of Lille. My only regret was bit having the time in Lille to go shopping too.

Excellent guide. Well planned route with lots of information. It was a great introduction to Lille and I had a much better experoence wslking around later. Our guide was good humoured and informativem The star was the 2CV, she was so comfortable and it was great fun going through the streets of Lille.

Fun to do when in Lille

Karen_G, Jun 2026

Good fun, knowledgeable tour guide. Great way and a very different way to see the city. Surprisingly enough space in the back for 2 people. Only slight downer was car kept stalling but it’s over 50 years old so not surprising. More frustrating for Gael, our guide

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello, Thank you for your feedback! We’re delighted that you enjoyed discovering Lille with Gaël. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the car, our 2CVs are regularly maintained, but as classic vehicles, they sometimes have a few quirks that are part of their charm. We hope to see you again in Lille soon! The TradiBalade Team

Best Overview Tour in Lille

This tour was exactly what we needed to give us an overview of Lille in a short period of time. The vehicle was very well presented and our guide (Charlie) provided excellent commentary of both present day Lille as well as its historical origins.

Great way to see Lille

Kathryn_M, Jun 2025

This is a brilliant way to see Lille. Our tour guide (sorry I didn’t get her name) was really informative and patiently listened to my dad’s stories en route. I also thought she did brilliantly driving the car as it chugged through the streets. We were in the pink car which brought us a lot of attention 🤣. I did knock a star off because there were 4 of us, from reading the information before booking it stated 2 to a car so I assumed we would have 2 cars but instead 3 of us were cramped in the back, which wasn’t very comfortable. It did seem an expensive for 1 car too.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the tour and appreciated your guide’s knowledge and driving skills, as well as the fun attention the pink car attracted! We apologize for any confusion regarding the group size and seating arrangements. We understand comfort is important and will review how we communicate this information. Your comments are valuable as we strive to improve the experience for all our guests.

Great fun
