Loved it - Fabulous experience. Our guide had a wealth of knowledge about Lyon. The food we tasted was wonderful. Best part was getting to meet the artisans who produce these products.

Great food, excellent tour guide, top tastings - We love a good food tour and this tour was top notch. It’s hard to go wrong with Lyon’s food - but we also learned so much. Why are the restaurants called bouchon? Find out. Went to some really good places- the cheese was excellent. Our sausage stop was great- the proprietor is a hoot. We got wine at all stops and there were reserved tables for us. We were paired with a group of colleagues and we all had a ball. We loved Toné! He’s the best guide I’ve ever had the pleasure to tour with.

Must book food tour!!! - The tour was fantastic and Toné was very knowledgeable. Every place we visited brought something special to the tour and Toné elevated the experience at every stop with his local knowledge and the history of the food in Lyon. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to enjoy the food of Lyon and learn a little bit along the way.

Soo good! - We had a wonderful experience with Natalie! It ended up just being the two of us with her and we got to ask all of our questions about the city. Her food choices were excellent! We got to try all the things we were dreaming of trying.

Five star food five star company - Tone was a wonderful guide. It was the perfect way to begin a trip to France. We’ve never been to Lyon before and I felt like he not only knew his food but was also a wealth of information about the area, both past and present. Plus, just a good person. Highly recommended; the best and easiest way to adjust to the time change!
