N ° 1 in the rental of motorhomes and campervans in France since 1979, Avis Car-Away offers a wide range of motorhomes that you can come and discover in our agency in the Lyon region, in Decines-Charpieu, in East of the gates of Lyon.
Before starting your motorhome getaway from our agency in Decines-Charpieu, a detour to Lyon is a must. Gastronomic capital known for its Bouchons lyonnais - typical restaurants of old Lyon with red and white checkered tablecloths and friendly counters - you can taste traditional and gourmet recipes such as grattons, Lyonnais sausages with pistachios, dumplings with Nantua sauce, or the famous sapper's apron.
Before or after this hearty meal, do not miss the majestic view that the Fourvière hill which dominates the city will offer you. This panoramic view will allow you to discover the whole of the city and maybe even catch a glimpse of Mont-Blanc if the weather is clear! Lyon, it is also its surprising traboules between Rhône and Saône. Traboules are covered passages allowing one to go from one dwelling to another in old Lyon. They date from the Middle Ages and were very useful in facilitating the trade of canuts, the traditional weavers of Lyon. Listed as a Unesco heritage, the traboules are a curiosity not to be missed! Lyon is full of historic architectural buildings such as its town hall, the Place des Terreaux, its imposing National Opera, the Place Bellecour, the Célestins Theater, but also superb green spaces, the most famous of which is the Parc de la Tête d´Or.
Lyon is an ideal starting point for exploring the Monts du Lyonnais massif and the Altitude valley of Haute Maurienne at the gateway to the Alps.
