Private chauffeur in Lyon: business and gastronomy
The TGV links Paris to Lyon in 2 hours, 465 km covered while you prepare your day. On arrival, your chauffeur waits at Part-Dieu. We take over for meetings, working dinners and everything that follows.
Our service in Lyon
Private chauffeur, transfers and day hire
We cover the city's three entry points. Part-Dieu holds the office towers and the business traffic; Perrache serves the Presqu'ile; Lyon-Saint-Exupery sits 25 km east, so factor in rush-hour roads.
Our Lyon clientele is largely professional. Finance directors, executives on assignment, foreign delegations met between two stations. We also handle gastronomy stays, longer and looser in their pace.
Lyon is driven vertically. Fourviere looms above, the Presqu'ile narrows between Rhone and Saone, the quays close quickly. Our chauffeurs know the access routes, the drop-off points and the windows when the Presqu'ile still flows.
Worth the drive
The places we drive you to
The Fourviere basilica opens the view across the whole city. Below it, Renaissance Vieux Lyon is crossed through its traboules, the covered passages linking street to street. The Presqu'ile lines up its facades around place Bellecour, one of Europe's largest squares. South lies Confluence, contemporary architecture set between the two rivers. Parc de la Tete d'Or gives 105 hectares to breathe. And when evening comes, we drop you outside a bouchon, where Lyonnais cooking is served without ceremony.
Basilique Notre-Dame de Fourviere
Sanctuary perched on the western hill, full panorama over Lyon and, on clear days, the Mont Blanc.
Vieux Lyon et ses traboules
UNESCO-listed Renaissance quarter, threaded by traboules that link courtyards and streets under cover.
Place Bellecour
Centre of the Presqu'ile, a vast esplanade between Rhone and Saone, a handy starting point for the core.
La Confluence
Former industrial site turned contemporary-architecture district at the southern tip, museum and reworked banks.
Parc de la Tete d'Or
105 hectares to the north-east, lake, botanical garden and zoo, the main green space minutes from Part-Dieu.
Airports & stations
Your arrival points
Three arrival points shape our pick-ups. Part-Dieu station is the busiest, at the foot of the business district; here we meet clients off the TGV from Paris, a 2-hour run for 465 km. Perrache station serves the southern Presqu'ile. Lyon-Saint-Exupery airport sits 25 km east, linked by the expressway; we set the time to your flight and track delays live. In town, we adjust routes around quay closures and peak hours.

Frequently asked
Private chauffeur in Lyon
Can you meet me at Part-Dieu station off the TGV?
+
Yes. We track the Paris-Lyon TGV schedule and your chauffeur waits at the passenger exit, at the agreed drop-off point. If the train runs late, the pick-up adjusts at no extra charge.
How long is it from Saint-Exupery airport to central Lyon?
+
The airport lies 25 km east, linked by expressway. Allow roughly 35 to 45 minutes to Part-Dieu or the Presqu'ile, more at peak times. We set departure to your flight.
Do you offer a vehicle with chauffeur for a day of business meetings?
+
Yes. The as-directed service covers a full or half day, chauffeur and vehicle at your pace between Part-Dieu, the Presqu'ile and the outskirts. Ideal for stringing together several meetings without dealing with parking.
Can you drop us and collect us for dinner at a bouchon?
+
Of course. We drop as close as possible to the address, in Vieux Lyon or the Presqu'ile, and return at the set time once the meal ends. Parking is tight in those streets, so the round trip spares you the bother.
