Choose to start your 2-hour Segway tour of Lille by getting picked up from your accommodation or meeting your guide at the starting point. Wander along the walls of the well-preserved Citadelle and get acquainted with 17th-century military architecture.
Then, head to the heart of the Old Town and soak in the elegant atmosphere of “le Vieux-Lille” in front of the neo-Gothic Notre-Dame de la Treille. From there, wander on to reach the oldest monument in Lille: the Hospice Comtesse. Originally used as a hospital, the Hospice Comtesse today hosts a historical museum that immerses you in the lifestyle and historical events of previous centuries.
Next, ride along the Rue de Gand, taking time to appreciate its collection of typical “estaminets” (combination cafe-pub-restaurants). Leap back into the 21st century with a stop in Euralille, the modern commercial centre that shows how the capital city of Flanders has changed with the times. Finally, arrive at La Place du Théâtre and La Grand Place to check out the Opera and the famous Vieille Bourse, the old stock exchange that stands today as one of the city's most important monuments.
