Tête d'Or Private VIP Tour: Unveil Its Hidden Majesty

On one of the hottest days of the summer, we were able to enjoy a full trip around the park thanks to this great pedicab tour in about 90 minutes. I was with my elderly mother who cannot walk far so this was our best way to experience this beautiful park from an expert who comes every day. You get to see multiple botanical and rose gardens, the zoo, and also many hidden gems you would not be able to visit in under 4 hours otherwise without transportation. Very kind to find us and drop us off conveniently. Highly recommended for English or Spanish speakers.

The tour of the Tete d Or was taken on Tuesday morning, 22nd August, 2023. Our host, DIDAC showed us around the various spots of this famous and impressive park, built in the 19th century. Our host explained to us the sections we would be visiting, shared interesting stories and explained to us the tour with pictures he was carrying with him. Unfortunately, because of the record heat wave during those days, the trip was rather exhausting, although, the timing was shifted from the afternoon to morning to avoid discomfort. The main point which I would like to emphasize is that any informed tourist can do this tour on his/her own and does not need to be "guided". The park is well marked and can be covered in couple of hours without any help for most tourists. This is not to discredit the host, who made great efforts to make the tour interesting. It is just that the tour is not worth its value for money.

Très beau parc mais la visite n’était pas ce à quoi nous nous attendions. Les boissons que nous devions avoir n’ont jamais été offertes, la visite s’est fait au pas de course. Le guide était très connaissant mais plus ou moins attentif à nos besoins. Nous n’avons pas pu apprécier le parc à sa juste valeur.

Fantastique Immersion dans un univers végétal et animal incroyable : notre guide nous a donné un très bel aperçu de ce parc avec beaucoup d adecdotes.

Beautiful green lung of great extension, with a navigable lake, and a range of services for families and children and beyond. Inside there is a zoo with exotic animals. Very well maintained and free entry. Worth a relaxing break.

Le guide est venu nous chercher devant l'hôtel et c'est très appréciable. Un peu d'histoire de Lyon sur le trajet et visite guidée du parc. C'était très intéressant et agréable.

Histoire du parc,anecdote, histoire de la ville de Lyon. J' ai passé un excellent moment je recommande de faire cette au printemps pour profiter des fleurs mais ce fut quand même très bien, très enrichissant.Envie de retourner me balader au printemps .guide tres sympathique

superb visit to discover the beautiful park of the head of gold...with a very friendly guide visit summarizing the historically very interesting park

Very interesting guided tour that goes around the park allows you to visualize it, its evolution over time, good historical summary. The guide is very nice.

It is a very well structured visit of the wonderful Tête d'Or park in Lyon. The visit combines the history of the park, explanations about botany, anecdotes, moments to take photos and enjoy the park. The guide knows perfectly all the secrets that this park hides.
