Our selection

The easiest way is to start with your travel plans. If you’re still at the inspiration stage, focus on articles about destinations, weekend ideas, beaches, city breaks or nature holidays.

If your departure is approaching, turn your attention to practical information: travel formalities, luggage, getting to the airport, parking, services in the terminal or advice on travelling with children.

Our ‘Our Selection’ section brings together the most useful, inspiring and topical articles on travel. It makes it easier for you to discover content without having to trawl through the whole blog.

Our featured articles help you take a step back before choosing a destination. They provide guidance on the seasons, the atmosphere, activities, ideal lengths of stay and the types of traveller a destination might suit. Before booking, these articles help you compare several options and confirm that a trip truly meets your needs: sunshine, culture, nature, relaxation, adventure, budget, proximity or a complete change of scenery.

They may also reveal some less obvious destinations that are actually excellent choices from Lyon. By browsing our selection, you avoid limiting yourself to the best-known destinations and can plan a trip that’s better suited to your pace, your travel dates and your priorities.

Yes, it’s particularly useful if you’re travelling from Lyon and want to explore your options without having to carry out endless searches. Our featured articles page therefore acts as a bridge between your travel dreams and the practical steps involved: choosing, comparing, planning, and then organising your time at the airport.

When planning a family holiday, start by identifying the factors that meet the practical needs of your trip: a reasonable flight time, a pleasant climate, child-friendly activities, convenient accommodation, a manageable pace for sightseeing, and safety and ease once you’re there.

The aim is to minimise uncertainty. By reading several complementary articles, you can compare a seaside destination, a cultural city or a nature break, then choose the one that best suits your children’s ages, your budget and your desired level of comfort.

When planning a weekend break from Lyon, focus on articles about city breaks, nearby destinations, short-haul flights, European capitals and cities where you can make the most of two or three days.

You’ll quickly find out what to see in a short space of time, when to go, which neighbourhood to choose, which activities to book in advance, how to organise your arrival and what budget to allow for.
