About

Join me, Anna, your local foodie friend in Lyon, for a gourmet and cultural walk through the historic Old Town. This isn’t a big company tour. It’s a small, authentic experience led by someone who actually eats, lives and breathes this city every day. During this 2.5-hour experience, I’ll mix 50% food, 50% history as we wander through hidden traboules, hear stories of the origin of food, and taste some of Lyon’s most iconic specialties. We’ll start with charcuterie and cheese paired with a regional wine in one of my favorite family-owned delis. Then you’ll try a warm Praline brioche (the best in town), enjoy a generous typical dish in a traditional bouchon, and finish with the famous Coussin de Lyon, inspired by the city’s silk heritage. Along the way, I’ll share my personal anecdotes, local tips, and all the little gems you won’t hear on big agency tours, so you leave full of great food and great stories.
