Lyon is easily accessible by train and plane. Note that coming by train from Paris airport (and a few other cities in Europe) can be significantly faster than taking a plane to Lyon from there. This is also more environmentally friendly.
Lyon is well-connected with metros, tramways, and buses. Cycling is also easy in Lyon, with Velo'v city bikes (1-day ticket for 4€). Tickets for metro/tramway/bus can be bought in all metro and tramway stations. Tickets for the airport express train can be bought at each stop of the line or online. Citymapper can be useful to plan your daily trips in Lyon as combining different modes is often the fastest solution. For detailed information, please refer to the following links:
