Overview

Join Anna from Tastes of Lyon for a gourmet and cultural walk through Lyon’s historic Old Town. This 3hour experience blends 50% food, 50% history. You’ll explore secret traboules, learn about silk weavers and Renaissance merchants, and taste Lyon’s most iconic specialties. Start with charcuterie and cheese paired with a regional wine in a cozy deli. Then, enjoy a warm Praluline brioche, followed by a hearty main dish in a traditional bouchon — generous portions and true local flair. End on a sweet note with the Coussin de Lyon, a chocolate-marzipan treat inspired by the city’s silk heritage. Along the way, Anna shares insider stories and cultural gems, leaving you full of food and fascinating facts.
