    Nice activity, ingenious idea for a visit to Lyon. Cécile was very professional and very pleasant. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest it to my friends. If you need my services I worked at Air France for 30 years I took a voluntary departure plan. I take this opportunity to offer you my services if however you need someone to promote your activity I have a lot of ideas or to accompany, I could possibly make myself available. Do not hesitate to contact me at 0614167431.

    My mom and I did this tour as we did not have a lot of time to see Lyon and it was phenomenal! The guide Tatiana was so sweet and knowledge about the city and all the hot spots! Truly a different way to see the city and made it fun. Would HIGHLY recommend. We were intially worried about the safety aspect as we had never been on a Segway before, but it was easier than it looks (:

It was very easy and pleasent to learn riding it. Higly reccomend this tour!
