Great tour
Nico was a fantastic guide, and we learned a lot from our first wine tour experience in many years. Nico was very knowledgeable, engaged, and humorous while visiting two very nice wineries. Merci!
via Tripadvisor
I loved the tour!
The schedule / itinerary was changed last minute, but I was very well informed about it so I had no issues. It was still a fun and organized tour that made me learn a lot about wine growing in this part of France. Kim was an amazing guide and I’d like to commend her for accommodating all our questions.
via Viator
A great time! Worth it!
Kim was a great guide, providing a lot of information to further understand the wines we were tasting. We went to 2 domains, and also did a quick detour by Vienne.
via Viator
Wonderful!
Kim was an amazing tour guide. She took us to two different tastings. Both were amazing. She was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. It was a lovely morning! Her English was easy to understand.
via Tripadvisor
Just ok
We basically visited 2 wineries and did tastings. Our guide was kind and knowledgeable. One of the wineries we visited has just gotten their AOC rating. It was basic and not really worth the cost.

Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lyon.
How much does Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day cost?
+
Prices start at $125 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day 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 129 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day?
+
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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day?
+
Around 45 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day?
+
Included: Local guide; Alcoholic beverages; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: On-board restrooms. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day?
+
The meeting point is at the office de tourisme building, across the street in front on the Hotel royal Lyon, M-Gallery (20 Place Bellecour, Lyon) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day offered in?
+
It is offered in English and French. 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 Northern Rhône Valley Wine tour from Lyon Half Day?
