1.Guided Sightseeing Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 3,126 reviews · 1 hour · from $17Our pick

1-hour Saône cruise with a bilingual guide. UNESCO views, Vieux Lyon facades, and the confluence’s bold architecture.

“Overall, I enjoyed this tour! It’s quite a large, 2 story boat with an open air top deck and enclosed lower deck. Nice breeze up top and the ride takes you up and down the river with some historical tidbits. The guide said the facts in French, then English. Cool architecture and a fun way to see a lot of buildings in 1 hour. I’d recommend for a unique way to explore Lyon!”

“Our guide was wonderful!! I’m pretty sure she said her name was Megan, although that doesn’t sound like a French name so maybe I got it wrong! She was from the area and gave us a great idea of what Lyon is all about historically and culturally, and she did it in a very fun and interesting way.
