    The L’Halle de Lyon Paul Bocuse is a gastronomic paradise brimming with local delicacies and artisanal products. If you are looking to experience the best that Lyon has to offer, I recommend this tour, as this tour balanced history with culinary exploration and it leaves us with the feeling of wanting to return again.

    We were accompanied by a passionate local guide
    Being accompanied by a passionate local guide, we were on a discovery mode for both the historic part of Lyon, as well as the gastronomy side and this walking tour did meet all our expectations. We absolutely liked the artisanal chocolates and artisanal ice creams.

    Visited local wineries and also had a delicious lunch
    In this wine tour, we experienced wines which satisfies all tastes. We visited local wineries and the vineyards had magnificent views. We also had lunch at a local restaurant, and it was nice to hear stories from the tour guide, about many mythical wines.

    This tour was both fun and educative about history.
    Walking the small pathways was like a world apart from the hustle and bustle of a city. The tour guide narrated some historic stories about the Traboules, related to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and also showed us the modern charms of the courtyards. This tour was both fun and educative about history.

We got a very friendly tour guide who also had great knowledge about Lyon (Old Lyon). It was fun walking those streets and talking about history, street art, and food.
