This tour was amazing! Our guide, Luce, was wonderful. Not only was the food outstanding, there was also a great deal of history shared as we walked from tasting to tasting. Highly recommend!

Our guide Nathalie was amazing, she was so knowledgeable with local stories on the history of Lyon. I highly recommend this tour and the local merchants you visit as they were all great and passionate about their produce. The tour visits several Traboules between merchants that you would struggle to find on your own and offer a great spot for some quiet photos.
