Not only did she take us to excellent shops and restaurants but also recommended lots of other places to take in during our stay. We've already visited two and will visit the others over the next three days

Best Food Experience in Lyon — Thanks to Maya

5.00We had an amazing food tour in Lyon’s Old Town with Maya — it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. She took us to several local restaurants and hidden gems where we experienced some of the best Lyonnais food. We tasted a wonderful variety of cheeses, wines, sausages, and curated meats, and every stop felt thoughtfully chosen and authentic. For the main course, she brought us to a traditional bouchon, followed by a visit to a bar to try local spirits, which made the experience even more complete. Maya is funny, knowledgeable, and incredibly warm. She shared not only food recommendations but also stories about Lyon’s culture and culinary traditions, which made the tour both delicious and meaningful. We felt like we were exploring the city with a friend who truly loves Lyon. If you’re visiting Lyon and want to experience real local food beyond tourist spots, I highly recommend booking a tour with Maya. It was an unforgettable experience and absolutely worth it.
