Taxi to Saint-Jean Cathedral: your chauffeur in the heart of Old Lyon

Saint-Jean Cathedral stands in the heart of Old Lyon, whose lanes are largely pedestrian. Parking is very limited, and on ceremony days families often have to walk with children, elderly relatives or formal outfits. With a chauffeur, you arrive relaxed, on time and in the right place.

• Drop-off at the edge of the pedestrian area, a few steps from the square
• A return booked for the end of the ceremony
• A van for up to 8 passengers for the family
• A fixed price, known before departure

Place Saint-Jean is pedestrian. Your chauffeur drops you as close as possible, at the edge of Old Lyon, on Quai Romain-Rolland or Avenue Adolphe-Max: it is then a two- to three-minute flat walk to the cathedral square. For the return, we set the pick-up point and time together.

Allow about 15 minutes from Part-Dieu station, under 10 minutes from Perrache or Bellecour, and 35 to 45 minutes from Saint-Exupéry airport depending on traffic. From the cathedral, your chauffeur can also take you up to Fourvière Basilica in a few minutes.

The cathedral hosts many ceremonies. For a wedding, a baptism or a funeral, we drive the couple, the family or the guests: coordinated arrival, waiting during the ceremony and departure to the reception. Several vehicles can arrive together.

Built between the 12th and 15th centuries, the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist is the seat of the Primate of the Gauls. Its stained glass, Gothic façade and astronomical clock are well worth a visit. Your chauffeur can drop you for a visit, then wait or come back for the rest of your day in Lyon.

Old Lyon’s cobblestones are hard for wheelchairs and for people who walk little. Our chauffeurs drop you at the most accessible point and help you out of the vehicle.

From Lyon, we also take pilgrims to Fourvière Basilica, the Ars shrine, Paray-le-Monial and Notre-Dame du Laus. All our pilgrimage rides are listed on Pilgrimage taxi from Lyon.
