Terrific way to experience the food specialities of Lyon!
Our guide Natalie was very knowledgeable & entertaining & mixed in history of the old town area along with talking about all of the various food specialties of Lyon. It was also nice to hear from the various owners/ food vendors as we were tasting the different items. Thoroughly enjoyed!

This is the first thing you should do in Lyon
I have done many food tours and this tour is exceptional. Natalie was fantastic. We loved the mix of history and how it has shaped the food culture. I highly recommend you take this tour on the first day of your holiday in Lyon as you will be better informed to make good choices during your stay

Lyons local tastes in a relaxed adventure.
Natalie our guide has a deep knowledge of the history and culinary lineage of Lyon. The food and wine pairings, and the reasons behind them were easy to understand. Her local knowledge of the traboules and food customs allowed a better understanding of Lyon. I would recommend Natalie’s tour.

Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lyon.
How much does Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included cost?
+
Prices start at $102 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 Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included 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 Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 48 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Lyon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included?
+
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 Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included 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 Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included?
+
Around 17 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 Gourmet tour of Presqu’île & Vieux Lyon 4 hours - meal included 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.
