Private Guided Walking Tour of Lyon Traboules

Immerse yourself in the secret heart of Lyon with our exclusive private tour, "In the Footsteps of the Traboules: Secrets of Lyon Revealed". This intimate journey will take you through Lyon's famous hidden passageways, known as traboules, which have stood silent witness to the city's rich history from medieval times to the 20th century.

With over 500 traboules scattered across Lyon, our carefully curated tour focuses on the most iconic and storied ones, many of which are closed to the general public. From the narrow, winding passages used by the silk workers in La Croix Rousse, who orchestrated the economic pulse of Lyon, to the strategic hiding places used by the Resistance during the Second World War.

In addition, we will explore the medieval traboules of Vieux Lyon, where you will discover passageways that served as shortcuts to save time in a maze of streets from another time.
