Culture and Local Heritage

Designed for learners wishing to make rapid progress in French while discovering the French art of living, the program L’Échappée Paris–Lyon combines intensive courses, cultural discoveries, and exceptional gastronomic experiences.

In Paris, explore iconic landmarks that shape French identity: the streets of Montmartre, the Château de Versailles, and the Musée d’Orsay during a special evening combining art and gastronomy. From wine and cheese workshops to dinner in a traditional “bouillon” restaurant, every moment becomes an opportunity to practice French in real and convivial situations.

In Lyon, a UNESCO World Heritage city, discover a more intimate atmosphere focused on history and gastronomy. From silk workshops in the Canuts district to the landscapes of Beaujolais, including an olfactory tour of Old Lyon, the immersion continues through local traditions and meaningful encounters. The stay concludes with a unique culinary experience with a chef from Maison Bocuse.

Mornings are dedicated to immersive French group classes at the Alliance Française de Lyon and then at the Alliance Française de Paris, for a total of 40 hours of training. Thanks to this pedagogical continuity between both cities, you develop greater speaking fluency, deepen your understanding of French culture, and experience the language far beyond the classroom.

Between heritage, gastronomy, art, and human connection, L’Échappée Paris–Lyon is an invitation to learn French differently, in the heart of two of the most beautiful cities in France.
