Why choose this Lyon tour ?
Food is undoubtedly one of Lyon’s most beloved traditions. Since 1935, the city has been considered the world capital of gastronomy. When Lyon’s culinary traditions were being forged, the famous “Mères Lyonnaises” (Lyonnaise Mothers) managed to turn Lyon cuisine into an institution. Today, male chefs dominate the scene, like the famous Paul Bocuse, however it is the women who evolved the renowned cuisine. We’ll guide you through this gastronomic journey infused with passion, history, and exquisite French food and wine. Find out why eating and drinking are not just a pastime in Lyon, but a way of life.
As a private tour, everything works around you! Our start times are much more easy going, dates can open up. It’s a much more intimate and cozy experience. No need to shout over other tourists, you will have every question answered, and leave feeling like a native yourself!
