Tour description
Join us for the original free walking tour of Lille and get a clear overview of everything that makes this city special.
We start with how Lille was born, how it grew into a major European crossroads, and the political leaders who shaped its rise. You'll also hear about the darker moments of its past - the ones most tours skip.
As we move through Vieux Lille, you'll see key landmarks, hidden corners, top food spots, and a couple of surprises along the way. We keep things fun with short games that help everyone learn and connect.
The tour ends in a classic Lille bar, the perfect moment to relax, chat, and enjoy the city like local.
