About this activity

Devour Croix-Rousse, one bite at a time! Ready to explore the emblematic district of the “Gros Caillou”?

This 2-hour food tour takes you through the famous Croix-Rousse — from its historic alleyways and silk workers’ heritage to breathtaking views and gourmet stops — to taste six carefully selected local specialties.

The tour starts in front of the majestic Mur des Canuts and ends in the slopes (les pentes).
It’s a route designed to delight your taste buds while discovering the neighborhood’s highlights, with both sweet and savory tastings from the best local artisans.

You’ll experience a wide range of Lyon’s gastronomy without spending endless hours in a restaurant — a perfect 2-in-1 activity!
Enjoy delicious pâté en croûte, iconic local charcuterie, regional cheeses, Lyon’s famous pink praline pastries, and exquisite chocolates.

No stiff guides or boring history lectures here — we walk, laugh, taste, and discover Lyon through its cuisine.

Small groups are preferred to ensure genuine sharing and flexibility to adapt the tour to you if needed.
The visit is on foot, with public transport available near the meeting point.
