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)

It's generally a safe city ,just in some specific areas that are filled with tourists you have to be careful of pickpocketing and avoid hanging around one neighborhood late at the night. But generally speaking it's a very safe city and l haven't encountered any issues myself

At day in the center near the soane or the Rhône it is pretty safe. Be careful around Guillotière I had friends who go things out of their bag stolen. I would say don't get angry at someone, my mother who works in a hospital tells me there is a lot of knife attacks everywhere around Lyon. And in my normally safe neighbourhood a girl who was jogging at night got raped. So always when you're going home at night don't go alone it's always safer!! But if you're not with someone once its not the end I often went home alone and nothing happened but be careful. I would recommend taking a "velov" by...

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.
