Nathalie is an amazing food tour guide! Highly recommend her. She is very knowledgeable in food, explained in detail and took us to all the right spots. Every spot being amazing. Love her as a person as well as the guide. If you’d like to see Lyon book her! I give her a 20/10. Highly recommend her.
Fantastic tour with good food, cool art and some history. Nate was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and kept things fun.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're pleased you got to explore Lyon through this mix of food, art and history — that's exactly the spirit of the Street Food Tour! Our guides know how to keep the energy up while sharing the best of the city's hidden gems. ✨ And if you'd like to keep a little piece of Lyon with you, feel free to follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lyonfoodtour/ 🍽 We hope to see you back in Lyon soon!
Excellent food tour with lots of other history thrown in made this a very interesting and fun tour..
Hello, Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad you enjoyed the mix of food, history and local culture that makes this tour so unique 😊 Our Street Food Tour also includes a journey through Lyon's vibrant street art scene, and we love connecting the city's culinary traditions with its urban culture and history. It's great to hear that you found the experience both interesting and fun. If you're already missing Lyon's food scene, feel free to follow us on Instagram @lyonfoodtour 🍴
Today, Natalie, our guide showed and shared her Lyon. Yes, it was a food tour. Yes, I love food and eating. But honestly, I enjoyed Natalie’s love of Lyon, her connection to the people who run the shops and restaurants, and all the little “secrets.” We spent the last couple of days wandering and exploring on our own, and Natalie answered some of our questions without us ever asking. Eerie or are those little secrets what makes Lyon special. Oh yeah, I’m usually not into history, but the information that Natalie shared was perfect for our tour. The walking pace was easy, and the restaurants and shops were all ready for us. Kudos Natalie!
Our tour guide was wonderful, and the walking part of the tour was great. Nate was knowledgeable, friendly and got everyone warmed up right away. We saw some great street art and walked through some hidden areas. The food part of the tour left a lot to be desired. While there was a lot of food, most of it wasn’t very impressive and 3/5s of it not even French, much less Lyonnaise.
Hi Rebecca, thank you for your feedback it's always important. Thank you also for the kind words about Nate — we're glad he made the experience memorable! We'd love to clarify that every item on our Street Food Tour is not all Lyonnaise product (empanadas, tacos) but made with local, regional ingredients — it's a discovery on the street food tour in town rather than its traditional cuisine. If discovering Lyonnaise classics is on your list, our 3h or 4h Old Town Food Tour are designed exactly for that! It's important to read the details carefully before booking an activity to avoid any disappointment...
The experience was beyond fantastic ad our tour guide Nathalie went above and beyond what we were expecting both from the food tour where she carefully selected specific stops for us that reflected the history and understanding of food in Lyon to the guidance on what to see in Lyon and how to plan our time to get the most out of our visit. Ask for her by name, she is fantastic and we've done a lot of these types of tours over the years!
Hello Elisabeth, We're glad to learn that you enjoyed the tour with one of the best guide in the city! We're making our best to content everyone by making a nice tour with selecting the best food partners, but the guides are the ones who make the tour really lively and appreciable :) Best regards
Superb experience discovering small restaurants of "street food" according to urban works. You walk past these restaurants or works every day without paying attention to them when they deserve a visit. Thanks to Nathan for the dynamism and the anecdotes!
Bonjour, Merci beaucoup à vous pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous avez apprécié votre visite de Lyon en mode "street" avec Nathan 😁 Comme vous le dites si bien, cette visite vous permet de (re)découvrir des oeuvres de street art tout en découvrant l'incroyable street food lyonnaise ;) À bientôt peut-être !
An excellent tour! Thank you Nicholas. Your knowledge of the street art and the gastronomie of Lyon was fantastic. We had more than enough food to eat and came away a lot more knowledgeable about Lyon too.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback ! We’re thrilled that Nicolas’s knowledge of Lyon’s street art and gastronomy made your tour both delicious and enlightening. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the food and left with a deeper understanding of the city’s vibrant culture. 😁
The street food tour was excellent. It may not be for everyone, as the food was surprisingly not as French as might be expected (two stops at taco places) but yet very good. Our guide, Naton (Nate) was the highlight of the trip. He was quite a unique and knowledgeable guide. We felt completely comfortable with him. The trip was well planned and showed us a lot of street art in between eating:-). I would definitely recommend
Thank you for your detailed and honest review ! 👀 We're glad to hear you enjoyed the street food tour and appreciated the unique angle it offers — blending local flavors with Lyon’s evolving culinary scene. While this tour highlights a more modern, multicultural take on Lyon's food culture, we're happy the tastings still hit the mark ! We're especially thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with our guide Nate — he truly brings something special to every tour with his knowledge and personality. 😁
Nathalie is a great guide. Five star experience. Excellent mixture of Lyon food and local knowledge. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your kind words ! 😇 We're thrilled you had a five-star experience with Nathalie. Like all of our guides, Nathalie does her best to share as much as possible about Lyon's food and local culture. ☀️We're so happy you enjoyed the tour, and we really appreciate the recommendation !
