Drive in Lyon with Sixt

As the third largest city in France and with the Historic Site of Lyon designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lyon is an impressive town that has a lot to offer everyone. For arts and culture, the Musée des beaux-arts de Lyon (Fine Arts Museum) in the 17th century Palais Saint Pierre is a must-see as the main museum of the city and one of the largest art galleries in France housing many iconic paintings from greats such as Rubens, Rembrandt, Monet, Van Gogh and Picasso. The Gallo-Roman Museum documents the interesting ancient history of the city and can be followed up by visiting the hillside Roman ruins near the Fourvière Basilica. The La Sucrière (Contemporary Art Centre) and Musée d'art Contemporain de Lyon (Contemporary Art Museum) are then an interesting juxtaposition after the historic culture. From the rare Romanesque Basilica of St-Martin-d'Ainay and the old silk quarter of Croix-Rouge to the chic, modern food market in the Part-Dieux district, Lyon surprises around every corner. "Lyonnaise" cuisine is renowned for being the French capital of gastronomy, nurturing a list of revered chefs and providing the perfect accompaniment to good food on its doorstep - great wine! The Beaujolais wine region lies to the North of Lyon and the Côtes du Rhône to the South. The vineyards are a popular jaunt for locals and visitors alike, with a driving tour of the vineyards possible when hopping day by day to each of the different areas and staying over night in the local farm houses. Hiring a car and crafting your own tour is a cost-effective and exciting way to discover the quaint roads and delicious dishes and wine of the region, and it is popular with many of our rental customers who come to Lyon to then explore the local region.
