Lyon is the epitome of gastronomical
France. The city is famous for its
outstanding
cuisine,
best
experiences
in
the
numerous
excellent Bistros.
Capital of the Rhone & the ancient
capital of Roman Gaulle, Lyon lies
between two major Rivers and is
olled with renaissance and tradFrench architecture.
Lyon is a city of Sport. Facilities allow
for 350 clubs and associations to
exist in the city itself with Rugby
competing
alongside
Football,
Hockey and Basketball as the major
past times. Olympique Lyonnais, LOU
Rugby & ASVEL Basketball are the
cities premier professional outots.
LOU Rugby themselves, to the
layman, have come from obscurity to
dine at the top table of French
Rugby. Regulars in the post-season
play-offs, the team are fancied
alongside the giants of Toulouse,
Clermont and Racing as serious
contenders.
A Walking Tour along the famous
8Traboules9 is a great way to kick off
the tour & whilst the kids are
playing, why not partake in some
wine tasting in the Beaujolais or
Cotes du Rhone wine regions?
In Lyon, we9re pleased to
work with ex-Leicester Tigers
& LOU Rugby star Ephraim
Taufaka. The former Tongan
hooker is head coach at
Federale 1 Club CS Beaune.
8Eph9 is our man on the
ground here and has
arranged some phenomenal
experiences for our clients in
the past. He knows where the
best Vin Rouge is too.
