A Lyonnais experience for lovers of culture and discoveries
We love the themed audio-guides created by Rewind that offer a chance to explore Lyon with freedom, in English (also in Italian, German or Spanish)
It’s simply impossible to talk about Lyon without mentioning silk. How about a workshop to learn about silk printing techniques at the Atelier de Soierie as a gift?
A Lyonnais experience for food lovers
Offer a fun way to discover food with the cookery workshops run by Institut Paul Bocuse.
A food tour is also a great gift for epicureans, who can indulge their passion along an itinerary offering opportunities to taste sweet and savoury delicacies.
You could also try a Beerology workshop at the Ninkasi Saint-Paul brewery.
Offer all the emotion of a concert or show
For music lovers, there are magical experiences to be had, like a great concert at the Chapelle de la Trinité and the Auditorium, ou a performance of Piano music à Lyon.
Then there is the Opera House and the Maison de la Danse: an opera, a concert or a ballet is a beautiful experience to be enjoyed together.
Gift an experience in Lyon to be shared
For curious minds, and at a reasonable price, you can take part in a workshop run by one of the city’s museums, for both adults and families. Here are a few ideas fo workshops…
Or, if you want to go wild (which we all need to do now and again!), try a taste of luxury: group together and look for some ideas in the Bocuse Group's gift packs, offer aperitif drinks beneath the Grand Dôme, or buy a luxurious night’s stay at the InterContinental – a gift to be remembered!
For something simpler but equally delicious, you can gift a mâchon brunch or dinner in an authentic Bouchon, for a taste of the real Lyon!
A Lyonnais experience for curious and sporty people
Lyon City Trek offers a chance to discover Lyon from various angles, but always on foot! This is an environmentally friendly form of tourism that we can only applaud. Here are some gift vouchers to explore Lyon while walking.
And then,
Being a tourist in your own city can offer many surprises! There is the Lyon City Card, a pass that provides access to a guided tour and a range of activities, including cruises, museums and exhibitions and discounted shows.
Or you could give a gift card that offers a wide choice of tours and discovery activities: classic and original guided tours, outings in winegrowing areas, explorations on an electric boat, an electric bike or a segway… There are loads of great ideas to choose from at visiterlyon.com !
We wish you a very happy festive season and plenty of inspiration!
