Selected pickup city: Lyon
Lyon sits where the Rhône and Saône rivers meet, France's food capital by reputation and a practical base for exploring Beaujolais's vineyards or the foothills of the Alps without depending on the TGV's fixed schedule. The old Renaissance quarter, Vieux Lyon, is compact enough on foot, but the traboules (hidden passageways) and hilltop Fourvière basilica reward slower exploring.
Vieux Lyon's traboules connect courtyards that were once used to move silk without getting it wet — a detail most visitors miss without knowing to look for the unmarked doorways. The Presqu'île district between the two rivers holds the main shopping streets and Place Bellecour, while Fourvière's basilica above gives the clearest view over the whole city.
Beaujolais's vineyard villages start less than half an hour north, an easy half-day loop through rolling hills dotted with small producers. Heading east, the road toward Annecy and the Alps foothills is a longer but scenic option if mountains are part of your plan.
Lyon's Presqu'île and Vieux Lyon districts have restricted traffic zones in places — check current rules before driving into the historic core, and expect metered parking to be the norm rather than the exception.
