Lyon
Lyon is quintessential France, for its three millennia of glorious history, its beautiful situation between two of France’s most graceful rivers – the Rhône and the Saône – and its modern-day vibrancy as a centre of fashion, culture and gastronomy. Don’t miss the chance to explore its museums and monuments, the cobbled streets of the Old Town (now a World Heritage Site) lined with multi-starred restaurants, lively bars and chic boutiques, and its grand architectural treasures from the Roman amphitheatre to the 16th Century Gothic Cathedral and the exquisite medieval villages and rolling countryside of its hinterland.
