Overview

Embark on a journey through the heart of historic Lyon, where hidden passageways and the famous Paul Bocuse Covered Market await. This tour lets you indulge in both history and gastronomy.

You will begin in Old Lyon, a Renaissance district that feels like stepping into Italy. As you wander through the streets, you’ll taste traditional local treats, from the pink praline brioche to the Coussin de Lyon. Then, cross the River and explore the Presqu’île district. Here, you’ll sample a French macaron crafted by a renowned Lyon pastry chef. Next, head to the Paul Bocuse Covered Market, known as the belly of Lyon. Your guide will share fascinating stories of Lyon’s culinary history, from the Lyonnaise Mothers to the legendary Paul Bocuse. Along the way, taste the famous quenelle, local cured meats, cheeses, and wines.

The itinerary may run in either direction depending on your starting point for a smooth and personalized experience.
