# Best 6 Luxury & VIP Tours in Lyon

> **Guidekin** is a hand-picked catalogue: we read every listing ourselves and keep only operators rated 4.5★ with 30+ traveler reviews. [How we choose tours](https://guidekin.com/how-we-choose-tours/) Catalogue data as of November 10, 2026.

Our selection is built by rule, applied the same way in every city. We start from every Lyon tour in the Guidekin catalogue, each already rated at least 4.5 by 30 or more travellers, and keep only private tours at the premium end of the market.

Private means the operator sells the tour as private and does not describe it as shared, semi-private or small-group, and the price we show is the price of a private booking: a tour whose cheapest ticket is a shared or semi-private group does not qualify. Premium means at least €150 per person for a party of two, and either a price in the top quarter of what Lyon tours cost or a true luxury format: yachts, helicopters, chauffeured cars, after-hours access, champagne, fine dining. Day tours only: multi-day trips, courses and lessons, self-drive buggies, quads, jet skis, dive trips, bike and tuk-tuk rides and party boats are not what a luxury traveller books, however much they cost, and they stay out together with transfers, one-way drives, treks, camping trips, photo shoots and proposals, as does anything sold in a language other than English.

The 6 tours below are the top of that list by our rating, which weighs the average score by how many travellers gave it, with no more than two tours from one operator. The table compares the top ten (the whole list when it is shorter) on price, duration, group size, pickup, tickets, languages and cancellation terms. The list is recalculated as the catalogue changes: new tours, price updates and tours that fall below our bar move in and out on their own.

## Why each made the list

- **Lyon Old Town Private Food Tour with 5 French Delicacies & Wines** — The private edition of the old town food tour: a Canut breakfast sampling, fresh pastries, French cheeses, a secret dish and a Lyonnais sweet, with white and red wine, for your party only. Expect a fair amount of walking; the menu follows the season and dietary needs should be flagged before booking. 4.99 from 98 reviews at €219 per person.
- **Full Day Private Tour of Beaujolais by vintage Land Rover** — A full private day on the back roads of Beaujolais in a vintage Land Rover: private medieval castles, wineries across the crus, honey, cheese and truffle producers, with lunch in a restaurant or a picnic set up among the vines. Cold cuts and cheese come with the tastings; dietary needs need two days' notice. 4.99 from 89 reviews at €490 per person.
- **Lyon: Private Burgundy Half Day Wine Tour by Vintage Land Rover** — A private half day in a vintage Land Rover from Lyon into the Mâconnais, the white wine country on Burgundy's southern edge, calling on small producers the hosts have known for years. Local foods and cheeses come with the tastings, under eighteens get grape juice, and the vehicle is marked wheelchair accessible. 5 from 37 reviews at €230 per person.
- **Lyon: Private dining experience through 3 restaurants** — A private progressive meal across three bistronomic restaurants chosen for their local regulars: starter, main and dessert each in a different place, each with a matched glass of wine, as lunch or a travelling dinner. A private host leads the way and the venues are marked wheelchair accessible. 5 from 30 reviews at €195 per person.
- **Rhône Valley Wine Tasting Private Day Tour from Lyon** — A private day in the northern Rhône for your party alone, priced for the vehicle rather than per seat, with visits to family run wineries on the steep Côte Rôtie and Condrieu slopes and a look at the cellars behind the Syrah and Viognier. Tastings and fuel are included; meals and tips are not. 4.87 from 46 reviews at €1000 per group/vehicle.
- **Private guided tour of Lyon - 3 to 4 hours** — A private three to four hour walk with an official Lyon guide that takes the funicular between Fourvière hill and Old Lyon, with tickets included, and can extend to the Presqu'île and the Croix-Rousse on request. The route is marked wheelchair accessible, transport included. 4.87 from 30 reviews at €210 per person.
