Daytrip to Lille

Hello, I%26#39;m planning a trip to Lille with a group.In the morning I plan a guided tour in the old town. For the afternoon i%26#39;m still looking for some alternative activities like sportactivities, walks, somethin fun. You know, not just the regular museumtour. If you have any tips, please post them!





Can someone recommend me a good place for lunch (i%26#39;m looking for something quick to eat like sandwiches) and an excellent restaurant for dinner?





Thank you!

I took a %26quot;Segway%26quot; tour once in Lille. That was great fun! In case you have not come across these vehicles, they have two wheels with a little platform that you stand on. You hold onto handlebars that are on the top of a vertical pole connected to the platform.





We were given a short period of instruction in a car park (lean forward to go forward, back to go back or halt, twist one of the handgrips for steering right or left). And then we set out with our guide for a tour of the city, starting with parks and quiet boulevards and graduating to the main squares to finish off with. I think we were out for almost two hours.





We had to book in advance through the tourist office. I think they offer these tours only on a *Saturday morning*, but if you were a group maybe they would consider doing it on another day/time.



Or maybe you could do this tour in the morning, and your walking tour of the old town in the afternoon?
