Couple travel

My overall experience in Lyon was very good. I stayed at an Airbnb with my boyfriend and we stayed there for 12 days. I would say 12 days is more than enough to experience the city but we wanted a very laid back and chill vacation as to why we stayed so long. I felt very safe but that could also be because I was with my boyfriend all of the time as I know there are plenty of areas in Lyon that my female friends have not felt so safe in.

I love Lyon! Probably one of my favourite places to travel in. I always felt safe, there’s so much to do, getting around is a breeze and the city is just STUNNING. Can’t recommend it enough and think it’s a great place to explore what French culture is all about

Felt recently safe, people were actually pretty nice. Food was great, we ate a bunch of food from the local weekend markets because we're broke. We did also eat at a fancier local place and the food was amazing. Lots of free historical places, museum was free for university students (we're grad students)

Mostly safe but keep an eye open in some streets and transports please take uber not métro if you’re not familiar. 7 district and venissieux are’nt places i recomand. Be safe and Watch yourself during night Time.

Lyon is pretty safe, especially during the day. But like any big city, there are certain areas that should be avoided like the Guillotière and some places on the outskirts of town like Villeurbanne, Bron, Venissieux ..

Lyon is generally safe, except for the Guillotiere area in the district 7 on day and night time. Still I recommend solo girls to stay in well-lit areas, avoid empty streets late, watch belongings, use public transit, and trust instincts. As always 👯‍♀️🙏🏻 Emergency: 112
