Quick Transportation Tips
Grab a rechargeable Técély card at any TCL metro station. It unlocks metro, tram, and bus networks. One card, one fare system. Tap and ride without fumbling for coins.
Download the TCL app before you leave the hotel. Buy single tickets with a simple QR code. Watch real-time tram arrivals roll in. Skip the queue, save minutes.
Land at Lyon-Saint-Exupéry Airport and head straight for the Rhônexpress tram. Thirty minutes later you step out at Part-Dieu station. Fast, direct, no traffic stress.
Metro lines An and D cross at Bellecour. This is the city's central hub. Change trains here to reach any corner fast. Look for the red and green signs.
