About this experience

Discover the charm of southern Beaujolais, often called the "Tuscany of France," with its rolling hills, vineyards and picturesque villages built from warm golden stone. Just north of Lyon, this lush, hilly region is also celebrated worldwide as the birthplace of Beaujolais Nouveau. Join our driver-guide for a cultural and gourmet adventure through scenic wine landscapes and panoramic roads in the Pierres Dorées area. As you travel through vineyards and valleys, admire views over the famous golden-stone villages and learn about the “terroir” that makes each appellation unique. Your first stop will take you to a charming family-run winery in the heart of the Pierres Dorées, where you will meet the producer, visit the estate and enjoy a tasting with a traditional mâchon of local cold meats and cheeses. You will then continue towards Montmelas, in the Beaujolais Villages appellation, to visit a second family-owned winery and enjoy a generous tasting of authentic Beaujolais wines.

Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lyon.

How much does Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon cost?

+

Prices start at $99 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 Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon 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 Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 180 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 Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon?

+

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 Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon?

+

Around 63 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 Golden stones Beaujolais Wine Tour with Tastings from Lyon 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, Vieux Lyon Cultural & Historical Walking Guided Tour (English), Highlights and Hidden Gems of Lyon Guided Walking Tour (English). 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.
