A 4-day city trip to Lyon for your group: Vieux-Lyon and its traboules, Fourvière, a meal in a bouchon, the Pierres Dorées villages of the Beaujolais and the medieval town of Pérouges.
At the confluence of the Rhône and the Saône, Lyon has preserved a vast historic centre listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, from Renaissance Vieux-Lyon to Fourvière hill. Its traboules, passageways between buildings, and its bouchons, restaurants serving Lyonnais cuisine, make it a city to experience as much as to visit. To the north, the Beaujolais of the Pierres Dorées lines up its villages of ochre stone, and the medieval town of Pérouges has kept its ramparts and cobbled lanes.
