The world's capital of great food

In Lyon, food isn't just a detail—it's a source of pride. This tradition comes from the famous Lyonnaises mothers and was made world-famous by Paul Bocuse. A must-try experience is eating at a traditional bouchon lyonnais, a cozy local restaurant where you'll find dishes like quenelles, tablier de sapeur, cervelle de canut, and other hearty specialties. To discover the best local products, head to Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse. Lyon's cuisine is rich, generous, and unforgettable.

Old Lyon and the Secret of the Traboules 

At the foot of Fourvière Hill, Old Lyon is home to one of the largest Renaissance districts in Europe and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stroll through its colorful streets, hidden courtyards, and vaulted passageways. But the city also has a secret: the traboules, hidden passageways that connect one street to another through buildings. They were once used by Lyon's silk workers to transport silk while staying out of the rain. Today, they're waiting to be discovered by anyone who knows which doors to open. It's a unique place to explore.

Fourvière: The Best View Over Lyon

For the best views of the city, head up to Fourvière Hill, either on foot or by funicular. At the top, the Basilica of Fourvière overlooks Lyon, while the terrace offers a panoramic view of the city's rooftops, its two rivers, and, on a clear day, the Alps in the distance. Right next to it, the Roman theatres are a reminder that Lyon was once Lugdunum, the capital of Roman Gaul. Two thousand years of history can be found on one single hill.

Two Rivers, Two Different Atmospheres

Lyon is also a city to experience by the water, between the Rhône and the Saône. On the Presqu'île, Place Bellecour and Place des Terreaux are surrounded by lively cafés and elegant shops. Further south, the Confluence district showcases modern architecture, centered around the striking Musée des Confluences. 

On the slopes of Croix-Rousse, you'll find the independent spirit of Lyon's former silk workers. And if you visit in early December, don't miss the Festival of Lights, when the entire city becomes an open-air light show. It's one of the best times of the year to experience Lyon. 

Planning Your Flight from Rennes to Lyon 

Good news if you like to travel on a whim: Air France operates direct flights from Rennes to Lyon all year round, with several departures each week. An additional seasonal service may be available during the summer, but the regular schedule already makes it easy to plan a city break whenever you like. If you're looking for a cheap flight from Rennes to Lyon, booking well in advance and flying on a weekday is usually much more affordable than buying a last-minute ticket. 

You'll arrive at Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport (LYS), located about 25 km (16 miles) east of the city, beneath its iconic glass-and-steel station designed by Santiago Calatrava. The fastest way to reach the city centre is the Rhônexpress tram, which takes you to Lyon Part-Dieu station in under 30 minutes. From there, the metro provides easy access to every part of the city. Regional buses are also available as a slower but more budget-friendly option.
