Overview

Guidekin summary

Four hours from the Presqu'île to Vieux Lyon with a family run outfit, five tasting stops that add up to a lunch sized meal and a guide who mixes the landmark squares with quieter corners. It stays a small group; only tips are extra, and it is not recommended in pregnancy. 4.98 from 41 reviews at €89 per person.

From the guide

Accompanied by a passionate local Guide, you will explore Lyon’s two iconic districts on this 4-hour gourmet tour combining gastronomy and heritage. You will taste local products during 5 carefully selected tasting breaks serving lunch.

This tour is led by a family-run Lyon company, proud to offer a warm and authentic experience. It will allow you to stroll from the elegant peninsula to the unmissable Old Lyon. You’ll visit the must-see places in Lyon as well as lesser-known places, with light and unusual anecdotes. We will open the door to Lyon institutions as well as smaller houses, each run by men and women who will share their passion. A gourmet walk that will show you the strong link that exists in Lyon between history and gastronomy while sharing a good moment of conviviality!
