Our tour was with Nico and he was a wonderful. Knowledgeable about the all aspects of Lyonnaise food, it's history and the food we personally had was excellent! Wherever we walked and dined he filled where we were and why and what we were tasting and why! Book it and GO!

What an excellent tour. It showcased true Lyon food and plenty of it. We went on a daytime walking tour the next day and as the guide pointed out several of the best restaurants and we were there the night before!

I arrived in Lyon by train at 4 pm, and by 5.30 pm, met this tour, led by Anna. Not only was it an excellent way to get the ‘lie of the land’, but it was also very interesting to hear about many of the cultural and historical facts of Lyon. We also enjoyed a wide range of tasting experiences, unique to this city. The group worked very well, with Anna accommodating both French and English speakers. She had a lovely energy for what is certainly a big job, and related to everyone so warmly. I feel very happy to have been a part of it. Thanks Anna.

I would highly rate this experience. Our guide Nathalie was engaging and her passion for food made the tastings and explanations all the better. Food quantities were very generous and two glasses of wine as well.
