Our tour was outstanding. Three tours in one, really. Historical, Architectural, and, of course, culinary. Superbly well designed and managed by Erick, who was extremely well versed in the history and origins of food in Lyon. The cheese and sausage stops also featured great hosts who entertained and educated us. A truly memorable experience!

I’ve been to over 20 food tours in Europe and this one was my favorite- the food was delicious and plenty, the local flare was brought into every presentation, and I learned so much about Lyon and French culture! Food for the stomach and for the mind! 🥰

This was one of the best food tours we have gone on (our 18th) - a great combination of history, architecture, culture, and, of course, food. An excellent selection of tastings and descriptions along with historical and cultural context. I would highly recommend!
