5.00Yann and the team at Tasty Lyon did an incredible job making this day trip a memorable one for my wife and I on our honeymoon. Yann was highly informative and able to answer nearly every question we had for him. The sites and views in both cities were truly breathtaking! I cannot recommend this trip enough! We’d do it again if given the opportunity!

4.00My wife and I had such a great tour with Francois. He was very personable and gave us a history of the entire region while driving us from point to point. We loved the medieval village of Perouges and had such an amazing lunch and walk around the town of Annecy. Would definitely recommend! Our only knock was the van’s AC didn’t work very well and it was pretty stuffy in there even on full blast.
