@@towntraveltips No; we were only in Lyon for 1 day ~ definitely not enough time to explore this beautiful city! We did have an excellent meal at Tetedoie, but no quenelles. Hopefully next time!
We spent five days in Lyon in March. We decided to check it out simply it was on the way to Chambéry, our destination. It was fantastic. Also, if you're moderately fit, it's very walkable. The Old City is great, but take some time to explore the Croix Rousse area. We absolutely loved the city.
Hi @ralphlw! Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching our video! 💛 Lyon is indeed a fantastic city, and it's great to hear you enjoyed your time there. The Old City is wonderful, and Croix Rousse has so much charm and character. It's also great to know that you found it walkable. Thanks for the recommendation, and we're glad you loved Lyon as much as we do!
Good video. Didn’t mention the Musee des Confluences, or the Traboules, or the ancient Amphitheater, even though these were pictured. Instead of the food market, we did these three things, and everything else in this video, in 48 hours. So glad we visited Lyon.
@danbulowski7013 Thank you for watching and sharing your experience! You're absolutely right, the Musee des Confluences, Traboules, and the ancient Amphitheater are indeed iconic spots in Lyon. We're so glad to hear that you were able to cover them along with other spots we mentioned in just 48 hours. It's always wonderful to see how different travelers tailor their trips. Your comment will surely help others planning their own unique journey to Lyon. Safe travels! 🌍✈️🇫🇷
You can do far better cheese wise than Camembert and Emmenthal (which is technically Swiss, as the spelling indicates). A visit to Les Halles will show just how much better you can do.
Hi @malthuswasright! You are absolutely right: Camembert and Emmental are just the basics, and Lyon has far richer cheese options to explore. Les Halles is the perfect place to dive into the region’s incredible cheeses, like Saint-Marcellin and Bleu de Bresse. Thank you for pointing that out and for watching! 💛 Do you have a favorite cheese from Lyon?
Excellent choices! Both are fantastic local picks, and we have a soft spot for Saint Félicien. With its creamy texture and slightly tangy flavor, it is incredibly satisfying on a fresh baguette! 🧀
The intro is complete BS!! Lyon airport serves 120 destinations and the TGV between Paris and Lyon was inaugurated in 1981! So saying that Lyon is not connected to major cities and had a TGV line just opened is utterly wrong.
Hi @JohnSmith-yw7tg! Thank you for watching 💛. You are absolutely right-Lyon has been well-connected for decades with its airport serving many international destinations and the TGV line linking it efficiently to Paris since very long time. What we aimed to highlight is that, despite these connections, Lyon has only more recently gained significant attention on the global tourism scene compared to cities like Paris or Nice. We appreciate your feedback and hope you still found the video enjoyable.
Visited Lyon last month. Loved the city!!! Great food and sites!
Thank you for watching! 💛 The food is indeed delicious! Have you tried the quenelles? 🤤

Emmenthal is in Switzerland and not in the northern regions of France.
Thank you for watching and for the feedback! Have a great day! 💛
I lived in Chambéry in the 70s. Emmenthal was a regular part of the cheese plate.
