Reviews
Excellent very informative audio tour. Dictionary was clear and very well researched giving it a local perspective. Allow plenty of time and coffee stops if completing the entire tour in one go. Will take between 3 to 4 hours, but worth it.
I’ve walked these streets a thousand times, but never like this. The guide brought a layer of meaning I hadn’t seen before especially the Hôtel de Ville and Place des Terreaux, where stories are often hidden in plain sight. This tour made me proud of my city’s past and grateful for its heroes.
This tour was more than sightseeing it was a tribute. From Le Veilleur de Pierre to the hidden messages behind quiet facades, every step honors the courage of those who stood up to tyranny. Walking the same routes the Resistance used was humbling. Highly recommended for veterans and history lovers alike.
