Fantastic 5.0

Booking accommodations for overseas travel with Klook is very convenient. The hotel room was very spacious and had a kitchen, the front desk staff was very friendly, there's a church across the street, a supermarket nearby, a street-level light rail, and delicious macarons. New customers can get an additional $100 discount by entering 2N85A.

Fantastic 5.0

Very convenient! No need to worry about getting around the city since every mode of transportation is included in the card. There’s so much to explore, too little time. Simply pick the best activities to avail. Never fail to pick the rooftop tour of Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourviere and the cruise tour ♥️

Fantastic 5.0

I had a really fulfilling visit. There was almost no line or it wasn't long to buy tickets on site, so I don't think you necessarily need to pre-book. The Confluence area itself has a lot to see, so I had a pleasant half-day from the museum to the shopping mall.
