Lyon Traboules Private Walking Experience
Walk through 15 to 20 of Lyon's hidden traboules — secret passages cutting through buildings that most visitors never find. This private two-hour tour starts at Place de la Croix-Rousse and descends through three neighbourhoods: Croix-Rousse, Presqu'île, and Vieux Lyon.
You'll hear how Resistance networks used the traboules during the Second World War. Your guide also tells the story of the Arêtes de Poisson, an ancient underground network closed to the public. Your guide has access to selected private traboules between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Visits to these private passages take place within those access hours. A stop at the Brochier Soieries silk workshop depends on its opening hours.
Your guide is a licensed guide-conférencier with over a decade of experience in Lyon. The route adapts to your group's pace and interests. No headsets, no scripts, no crowds — just your group and a guide who knows these passages inside out.
