Paul is the perfect guide who knows a lot about the city, it’s history and (hidden) treasures. By adding some personal experiences and a lot of humor it’s very easy to stay engaged the entire tour.
It was the perfect start of our Lyon-trip! Thanks again Paul & groet’n uur Grunn!

I did both Lyon City tours with Paul and thoroughly enjoyed both. Learned a lot about Lyon and went places I probably wouldn't have found on my own. Highly recommended.
