Armored & Guarded · Lyon
Executives, public figures and delegations travelling to Lyon sometimes need a vehicle that offers real protection. We can arrange B4 or B6 armored SUVs, driven by security-trained chauffeurs, for airport runs, city movements and longer journeys toward Geneva or the Alps, all quoted as one fixed fare before the vehicle is committed.
Business district
Our chauffeurs work daily around La Part-Dieu and Confluence, with regular runs to Vieux Lyon, the Eurexpo exhibition centre, Groupama Stadium.
Lyon is the gateway to the Alps, so winter transfers to Courchevel, Val d'Isère and Chamonix are quoted with snow tyres and chains as standard.
Corporate travel in LyonB4 vehicles resist handgun rounds and are usually chosen for discreet urban travel. B6 vehicles resist higher-powered rifle ammunition and are suited to elevated risk. The choice should rest on your security team's assessment. We discuss availability against the rating you need, and if a particular date cannot be met, we say so quickly so your team can plan an alternative.
Lyon's tunnels, bridges and single-carriageway quays create natural choke points, which a protection team will want to understand. We work with your advance staff on routing: alternatives to the Fourvière and Croix-Rousse tunnels, approach options to Part-Dieu and Confluence, and drop-off points that keep the principal off the pavement for the shortest time.
From Lyon, principals often continue to Geneva, about two hours away, or into the Alps. Armored vehicles are heavier and slower on mountain gradients, particularly in snow, and we plan time accordingly. Your team can specify the route, the stops and the contact protocol, and the fixed fare covers fuel and tolls for the whole movement.
Armored work is assigned to chauffeurs who are vetted and trained for protective driving, and who do not discuss itineraries or passengers. Details are shared on a need-to-know basis. Because armored SUVs are limited in number, the earlier you tell us your dates the better the chance of confirmation, and the 24/7 desk remains your single contact throughout.
Many principals reach Lyon through Saint-Exupéry, where the first minutes on the ground matter most. We agree with your team whether the chauffeur waits in arrivals with a name board or at another point, how luggage is handled and which route is taken into the city. The vehicle can stay with you for the whole visit, so hotel, meetings and dinners are covered by the same driver, and the 24/7 desk deals with any change of schedule.
