Learn French in France - ESL Lyon - Free Time

If you want to make the most of your free time, Lyon is the ideal city for you: shops, cinemas, exhibitions, concerts, sports centres, bars, restaurants, discos… just as many opportunities for you to go out with friends, to go for walks, or to “live it up”. This rich diversity means that there is something for every taste and every budget.

Those who love old stone structures will rejoice at the chance to explore Roman Lugdunum’s two thousand years of history, and lovers of fine dining will be spoilt for choice. The hinterlands and countryside around Lyon deserve enough time to go hiking or biking or to taste the latest vintages of Beaujolais wines.

The city’s closeness to the Mediterranean, to Paris or to Geneva make Lyon a preferred starting point for grand excursions. Every week we suggest a number activities “coached” by our staff. There is also a lot of information available if you wish to organize your leisure activities yourself.
