What are people saying about Lyon Les Halles Market (Les Halles Paul Bocuse)

Private Gourmet Tour : Halles Paul Bocuse Covered Market

Katherine_V, Apr 2025

Wonderful tasting tour of Les Halles

You will taste a wide variety of foods at Les Halles - come hungry! The tour was very accessible for all ages (we were 2 adults and a tween) and we especially loved the Lyon saucissons! Claire was a wonderful tour guide and explained the local history behind the development of certain food traditions, without ever being dry or boring. Highly recommend! The only note I would give is that it is a lot of standing so your feet may get tired and travelers with reduced mobility should take note.

Impressive guide for a visit to an impressive food market

The Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse is incredible. It is a clean, modern, efficient enterprise that showcases the highest quality foods. And even better, we had Clarie as our food guide and she was extremely well organized and presents her material seamlessly. She is warm, witty, clever, and has so much knowledge. We loved how she was able to teach us so fascinating things while keeping things light and playful. It is one of the best food tours we have had, and we have had many. We highly recommend Claire and a visit to this incredible food market.
