DareMapp’s Lyon audioguide is an interactive GPS-based route created by historians and local experts. It includes audio content, mini challenges, and gamified experiences at each stop, is available in 6 languages, and requires no schedules or groups. Trusted by over 100,000 travellers and recognised by Spain’s Ministry of Tourism and major media outlets, it offers a flexible and engaging way to discover Lyon at your own pace.

Our Lyon audioguide uses your smartphone’s geolocation technology to show your exact position on the Lyon map. As you reach each marked point of interest, you can play the audio content and manually unlock interactive mini challenges. You set the pace: stop for a break, grab a coffee, and continue your tour whenever you like.

Our experience is designed for all types of travellers. It’s ideal for families looking for an engaging way to introduce history to children and teenagers through mini challenges and clue-based activities, for couples who want to explore at their own pace without relying on groups, and for solo travellers seeking a smart, expert companion. As a self-guided tour, it adapts perfectly to any pace and age.

To fully enjoy the interactive experience — including GPS maps, audio content, and mini challenges — each traveller needs to purchase their own guide on their smartphone. Purchases are individual and linked to a single user account.

While it’s technically possible to share headphones, we recommend that each person has their own audioguide to participate individually in the challenges, receive their own free eSIM code, and navigate the route independently from their own device.

Unlike traditional audioguides, DareMapp offers engaging explanations, fascinating historical facts, local legends, and fun mini challenges throughout each route. Beyond learning about the main landmarks in Lyon, you’ll also discover hidden gems and local traditions in a more interactive and enjoyable way.

Our itineraries are not generated by Artificial Intelligence or generic algorithms. Each route is carefully designed by official guides, historians, and local experts who live in the city. This allows us to offer not only accurate historical information, but also the kind of insights, stories, and hidden spots that only a local would know.

Yes. We are currently working on an offline mode, but for now an internet connection is required. That’s why, with your Lyon audioguide, we include a free 2GB eSIM* so you can stay connected and avoid roaming charges.

When you purchase your tour on the website, you’ll receive a unique code by email* along with detailed instructions to activate your 2GB of data completely free.

If you experience any difficulties installing the eSIM profile, have connectivity issues, or have questions about your 2GB data usage, you should contact Turtrip’s technical support team directly, our official connectivity provider. They are telecommunications experts and will be able to resolve any technical issues in real time through their support portal.

Purchasing with DareMapp is 100% secure. We use SSL-encrypted payment gateways to protect your banking details at all times. Our priority is that you enjoy your route in Lyon without any concerns, which is why we offer:

  • Functionality guarantee: If you experience any technical issues accessing your audioguide or GPS map, our support team will provide priority assistance.
  • Refund policy: If after your purchase you find that your device is not compatible with the advanced features of our app, we offer a full refund.
  • One-time payment: No subscriptions, no automatic renewals, and no hidden charges. Pay once and the audioguide is yours.

No. The price of our Lyon audioguide includes digital content and a complimentary eSIM*. We provide official links to purchase tickets for each monument in Lyon, but the choice is yours — you can decide whether to buy them or not, avoiding unnecessary intermediary fees. The options offered through DareMapp are always commission-free and, in most cases, include skip-the-line access and even better prices than at the ticket office, helping you make the most of your budget during your trip.

Forever. Once you purchase the Lyon audioguide, you will have lifetime access — IT NEVER EXPIRES. It will remain in your account so you can use it whenever you like, whether that’s tomorrow or on your next trip to Our . In addition, your tour will be automatically updated at no extra cost whenever we improve the content, add new recordings, or update the route, ensuring you always have access to the best available version.

Yes, you have complete flexibility. You can purchase your Lyon audioguide, or any other, either on this website or directly within the DareMapp app (available on iOS and Android).

We are already thousands of travellers exploring the world with DareMapp. Our community values the freedom to explore without groups, without rigid schedules, and with the most advanced digital tourism technology.

Our interactive routes are designed to be enjoyed at your own pace. Most DareMapp itineraries take between 2 and 4 hours to complete, but you are in full control: you can pause the audioguide to grab a coffee, visit a monument, or simply take a break. There are no schedules or groups to follow; you can skip stops or revisit your favourite spots whenever you like. Your audioguide never expires, so you decide when your visit to Lyon starts and ends.

The best way to visit Lyon depends on your travel style. DareMapp’s Lyon audioguide is the best option if you prefer complete flexibility and exploring at your own pace without relying on others. Group tours are ideal if you’re looking for in-person interaction, but they require following a fixed schedule and sharing the experience with other travellers. DareMapp combines the best of both worlds: expert-led content created by historians and local specialists, together with the freedom to decide when to start, where to stop, and what to explore.

Yes, absolutely. DareMapp’s Lyon audioguide includes mini challenges and clue-based activities throughout the route, designed to keep younger travellers engaged while learning in a fun way. Since there are no fixed schedules or groups to follow, your family sets the pace. It is an excellent alternative to traditional guided tours when travelling with children.

The app is optimised to minimise battery usage. However, since it uses GPS and audio continuously, we recommend starting your visit with a fully charged device. If you plan to complete multiple routes in the same day, we also suggest bringing a portable charger for added peace of mind.

Yes, absolutely. At DareMapp, our priority is that you enjoy your experience when visiting Lyon. If you encounter any technical or usability issues that prevent you from completing the route properly, we will process your refund without any complications. Simply contact us at support@daremapp.com and our team will assist you quickly and easily. We want you to discover Lyon with complete peace of mind and a clear guarantee of functionality.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, email us on support@daremapp.com and we’ll be happy to help you with your visit to Lyon.
