This dramatized tour of the slopes of Croix-Rousse takes you through Lyon's most obscure and mysterious legends: the White Lady, buried treasures, forbidden underground passages, ghosts, and initiation rites. Your actress-guide (not in costume) will recount ancestral legends, stories that have been told since the dawn of time. This tour takes you on a journey through the history of Croix-Rousse: from Antiquity to the 19th century, the heyday of silk workers and the world-famous silk industry, through its little-known traboules and alleyways. Enter the inner circle! This tour does not include any underground visits.

A pleasant walk in the alleys of Croix Rousse where you learn about the legends and history of the place through theatricalized tales. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed.

Discovering these places with Cybele was a delight. The story is adapted to a family audience of all ages, the places of stop and walk well chosen for both history and photos. We let ourselves be carried away by the suspense of the story and even the little moans of walking saw nothing but fire! And the kindness of our guide is the icing on the cake...

Great visit that takes us through the ages. If you want to dream and discover this neighborhood, Cybele will do it brilliantly!

Another great experience proposed by the Cybele team! I had a great time, and without ever taking myself too seriously, we discover new Lyon stories!

Living stories about the La Croix Rousse neighbourhood where legends are discovered and many things learnt. An original way to visit the city. We had a very rewarding time
