    Amazing tour with Anna!

    My best friend and I showed up a little late but Anna was very friendly and accommodating. We walked through the beautiful old town and learned about the history of the city. Anna is amazing! She was able to answer everyone’s questions and was very friendly. The whole tour group felt like a little family by the end of our tour. I cannot speak highly enough.

    Exceptional tour of Lyon

    Exceptional tour with our guide, Nicholas. A great way to begin a visit to Lyon. Learned a lot about the city while enjoying delicious food and wine in places that we would never have found on our own. Nicholas has so much to share about his city, and quickly brought a group of strangers together to enjoy a wonderful evening. Highly recommended! Great value for a learning experience with amazing food.

    Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better cost?

    +

    Prices start at $98 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 Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 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 Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 474 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Lyon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better?

    +

    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 Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better?

    +

    Around 166 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 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better 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 Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better?

    +

    Included: Water; English-speaking Local Tour Guide; Alcoholic beverages; and Dinner. Not included: Gratuities; and Any additional food or drink. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Is Lyon Sunset Food Tour & Wine -Taste of France by Do Eat Better wheelchair or stroller accessible?
