Two Women from Atlanta & Cleveland
Julie, our tour guide and driver was wonderful! She has an excellent knowledge of the Beaujolais wine country. She is friendly and outgoing. I enjoyed talking to her during the tour.

Great wine tour

Fun wine tasting in Beaujolais
We had a great time with Amandine who gave us a general overview of Beaujolais area and the wines coming from there. She was personable and knowledgeable. The experience itself was fun as well with some knowledge building and testing combined with wine tasting.
via Viator
Nice way to spend half a day
The first winery is a self-learn situation; the second winery is a guided tasting. Both interesting but note that there is no food provided.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed this half-day in Beaujolais and found both winery visits interesting. It was a pleasure to share this wine experience with you. The Tasty Lyon Team

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lyon.
How much does Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $113 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lyon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lyon is not rushed.
Is Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 73 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lyon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Around 26 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lyon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lyon and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lyon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lyon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lyon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lyon Highlights & Secrets Walking Guided Tour (small group) including Funicular, Highlights and Hidden Gems of Lyon Guided Walking Tour (English), Lyon Old Town Food Tour with 5 Authentic Dishes & Fine Wine. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lyon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lyon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Included: Shared tour; Wine tasting; Driver/guide; Transport by air-conditioned minivan; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Lunch; Bottled water; and Pick up and drop off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour?
+
The Tourist Office is in the middle of the Bellecour square. Please, be there 10 minutes before departure. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour?
+

Is Beaujolais Half Day Wine Tasting Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
