Lille City Tour

2. Lille City Tour

What could be nicer than to tour the city comfortably seated in a minibus? This is the perfect way to discover Lille in 75 minutes. Equipped with an audiovisual system in 9 languages (French, English, German, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Russian), this city tour by bus offers views of the city’s main sites and monuments, from its origins to the most modern districts. Admire the Goddess statue as you drive past the Place du Général de Gaulle (Grand Place) and see the Opera House, the Chamber of Commerce and the Beauregard Row at the Place du Théâtre. Of course, you will also drive past the Townhall with its Belfry, the Citadel and the Old Paris Gate.

Lille Driving Tour by Convertible Citroen 2CV

3. Lille Driving Tour by Convertible Citroen 2CV

Take a retro guided tour of the beautiful city of Lille on board an iconic Citroen 2CV, as idiosyncratically French as a beret or baguette. Tours can vary from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours, with room for up to 3 passengers. Riding in the famous car, feel the vroom-vroom of its tiny engine (2CV literally means "2 tax horsepower"). Lean over at every bend in the road and enjoy the vintage upholstery. If the weather’s right, you’ll tackle the cobbled streets with the roof rolled back and the wind in your hair. Your driver-guide will tell anecdotes about the city at every nook and cranny en route, and they'll advise you on the best places to go when you’ve regained your street legs. Lille is an ideal city to tour in a 2CV; the streets are narrow, and though the cobbles might shake and rattle your bones a bit, you'll feel every part a native.

Our afternoon spent participating in the Scavenger Hunt was a resounding success for all three of us. The youngest, aged 12, led the expedition with complete confidence and enthusiasm, whilst his mother and grandmother followed delighting in the sights and history revealed in the commentary. It proved a most enjoyable, entertaining and informative introduction to Lille, which has so many wondèrful treasures and is at the same time such a friendly,vibrant city. It was without a doubt the highlight of what proved to be a fabulous break and the perfect introduction to La Vie Francaise for my grandson.

Great way to view and learn more about Lille. Our tour guide was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and gave us some suggestions of places to visit and eat. He even had to deal with the car breaking down and fixing it, didn't bother us was all part of the experience. Would highly recommend.
