Eh.

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.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

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...

Awesome tour and great food!

Great way to get an overview of the city if visiting for the first time. Food is carb heavy and street art is interesting.
