Last meal in Lyon on my own with no itinerary left to follow felt like a proper reward after a busy solo trip.
Lyon's traboules were such a fun little discovery on my own, definitely the surprise highlight of hopping through four French cities solo in nine nights.
Brilliant cities, but dinner near my Paris hotel was overpriced for what it was, I ate far better a few streets back.
Loved that the trip saved the food city, Lyon, for last, a delicious full stop to nine nights.
Marseille's Notre Dame de la Garde view over the sea was gorgeous, though the climb up in the afternoon sun was more tiring than I expected.
Solo-friendly and well organised, no real gripes on comfort or safety. If anything I'd have traded a Marseille afternoon for one more in Lyon, the traboules and that final bouchon deserved longer than the schedule gave them.
