My husband and I have just two full days (a Friday and a Saturday) this coming September to visit Lyon France for the first time. I am drawn by the traboules. While we plan to wander them by ourselves, we would also like to book a tour. Do you have recommendations and information about one that you've taken? This forum has been very helpful in the past.
We want to spend most of our time in Lyon outside just wandering around with the only inside visits being the traboules. I am rather saturated with museums.
Trips to Europe in the past have been museum heavy. The weather should be nice in early/mid September. I want the outside to be our domain--walking and seeing the sights, eating outdoors, etc. Any "must see sights" outside in Lyon?

Thank you, Simon. I just checked that site. It appears that a two-hour traboules tour is @ 250 euros per person. Does that seem correct? I have emailed Alex with that question, too. TIA

That's about correct rate. If you can find an email address to contact him direct it might be cheaper.
