Our group of 4 female friends loved the tour. It was a perfect start to our 4 days in Lyon. We enjoyed the unique experience of each stop. Our guide, Stephanie was wonderful.

Elisaeetta was amazing - her depth of knowledge and ability to engage with us was 1st class. She adapted the tour to our needs and desires. She paced it well and was conversational and that engaged those in the places we visited . We have been on many food and wine tours and this was one of the best. The stops were thoughtful and gave us a good sense of local foods. Strongly recommend this
