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. Many of the recipes around the city are unchanged from their humble beginnings, meaning you'll have the opportunity to taste the culture and history that has turned Lyon into the culinary hub it is today. 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.

    We had a wonderful time on this tour! The food and wine were excellent, and our guide, Oliver, was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable about Lyon and its history, and made the experience both fun and engaging. It was a great way to explore the city and learn more about its culture. Highly recommend!

    Rosie was our tour guide, and I didn't realize how fantastic her tour was until I went on another tour in a different city. Her tour was well-organized, thoughtful, and well-prepared. She provided us with a wealth of information about the city and its cuisine. I loved how she paced the tour nicely between walking and seating, talking and tasting. And we got to experience many different types of savory & sweet food in Lyon. Highly recommended.

    Overall this was a good tour in Vieux Lyon. The food chosen was thoughtful and unique to the area. Oliver was friendly and conscientious to some older people in our group.
