Lyon, the city of those who truly enjoy life to its fullest

You want to discover its gastronomy, its basilica, its quenelles, its historical quarters ...? But where to start ? Come on we help you a little...

• Fourvière and Notre-Dame Basilica

The district of Fourvière still hosts some vestiges of its rich past as capital city of the Gauls. Next to the hill, you can discover the Odeon or the superb ancient Roman theater. Visiting the Gallo-Roman Museum will also allow you to learn more about the ancient Lugdunum, which was founded in 43 BC.

The Notre-Dame de Fourvière Basilica, which has been built in the 19th century, allows you to enjoy an unforgettable view of the city of Lyon and the Alps. Take the time to walk down to the St-Jean district, the ballade will give you a good reason to stop and eat in an authentic Bouchon Lyonnais in the old town...

• Old Lyon: Saint-Georges, Saint-Jean and Saint-Paul

Speaking of the historic districts, you have to visit the 3 districts stuck between the slopes of Fourvière and the Saone river... Saint John's Cathedral, its medieval streets and other Renaissance buildings: Saint-Jean is probably the most romantic district in the city!

The must-sees of the Old Lyon include: the traboules, the superb Hôtel de Gadagne which hosts both the history museum of Lyon and the puppet museum.

• The Park of the Tête d'Or, the lung of the city

Located in the heart of the city, the Park is one of the largest urban parks in France. There, you can discover a zoological park, a beautiful rose garden, a lake on which pedal-boats are kings. Though the sportsmen are the ones who benefit the most from the park as they can bike, jog or even rollerblade in the alleys. So you should definitely put your sneakers on to discover the "Tête d'Or"…

• The festival of lights

If you want to enjoy this festival you should obviously visit the city in winter and think about booking accommodations for the weekend of December 8. Even if the millions of visitors scare you, there are always dozens of places to visit away from crowds… The festival of lights is above all a stunning lighting of the city and its most significant buildings.

And this is only a sample of what we can offer you for a weekend motorcycle in Lyon!

Lyon, at the crossroads ...

There is no better starting point to discover Provence, explore the Burgundy and Beaujolais wine routes as well as the Alps and the fantastic Grande Route des Alpes (the Great Alpine Road) which travels from Lake Geneva to the Mediterranean Sea.

Thaks to Universal Riders and our bike rentals, Menton and Italy open their arms out wide to you... So does Marseille and its beautiful calanques.

Starting from Lyon, you will also have the opportunity to drive all the way to Toulon and roam around Corsica visors down on your brand new BMW R1200 GS.

In short, Lyon is an incredible source of inspiration!
