Lyon Wine Tasting: Burgundy, Beaujolais & Rhône with SommelierYou’ll sip five regional wines in a sunlit Lyon silk loft with an English-speaking sommelier guiding you through stories and flavors from Burgundy, Beaujolais & Rhône. Nibble local cheese and charcuterie as you learn why Lyon is France’s wine capital—and leave with new friends and maybe even a favorite grape.
Lyon: Northern Rhône Syrah & Viognier Wine TastingYou spend a half-day walking the steep vineyards of Ampuis with a local guide, tasting Viognier and Syrah in their original terroir before the vines themselves. The tour includes transport from Lyon, small tasting doses, and a view of the Rhône valley that frames why this corner of France tastes the way it does. You're back in the city by early afternoon.Is it for me?Book this if you want to understand why Northern Rhône wines taste the way they do without spending a full day away from Lyon — the half-day format and included transport mean you taste in the vineyard itself, not in a room, and you're back in the city by early afternoon.
Beaujolais Wine Tour from Lyon: Half-Day Tasting & Golden Stone VillagesYou'll visit the golden stone vineyard area south of Lyon, taste white and red wines at a scenic stop, then drive through villages to a local estate where the producer walks you through several wines. Transport, guide, and tastings are included; the whole experience runs about four hours, leaving your afternoon or evening open.Is it for me?A good fit if you're staying in Lyon and want to taste real Beaujolais without renting a car or spending a full day away. The half-day length means you're back by early afternoon, and the guide handles the driving so you can focus on the wine and the landscape.
Lyon: French Wine & Cheese Tasting with SommelierYou taste ten handpicked French wines from six regions, each paired with seasonal cheeses and artisanal products, in a private salon hosted by Hugo Jeanguyot, a wine guide who works directly with French wineries. The experience is designed for both beginners and wine enthusiasts, with small groups and an intimate setting that feels more like a conversation than a class. The salon is in central Lyon and accessible by public transport.Is it for me?Book this if you want to taste French wines beyond the obvious names and hear the story behind each one from someone who actually visits the vineyards — Hugo's daily work with French winemakers is what makes the tasting feel like a conversation instead of a performance.
Lyon: Beaujolais Wine Tasting & Castles Private Half-DayYou spend a half-day in the Beaujolais crus region tasting wines at a family winery and a château cellar, learning how semi-carbonic maceration works, and seeing Mont Brouilly and the Alps from La Madone Chapel. Hotel pickup in Lyon and a private Mercedes minivan are included, so you don't arrange transport or navigate the wine roads yourself.Is it for me?Book this if you want to understand Beaujolais wines without the pressure of a group tour or the logistics of renting a car and finding wineries yourself — the private format and fixed itinerary mean you taste at your own pace while someone who knows the region handles the driving and the storytelling.
Lyon: Northern Rhône Valley Wine Tour & TastingsYou're driven from central Lyon into the steep vineyards of Côte-Rôtie, where you taste three wines directly from the winemakers who grow them and learn how the landscape shapes what's in your glass. Transport, guide, and tastings are all included; the only variable is which estates you visit, since the route adjusts to winemaker availability.Is it for me?Book this if you want to taste northern Rhône wines where they're made and talk to the people who make them, without arranging transport or navigating the steep vineyard roads yourself — the minivan and guide handle both, and the small group size means you're not one of thirty people at a tasting counter.
Beaujolais: Private Day Tour by Vintage Land Rover with Wine & CastlesYou’ll ride vintage Land Rovers across Beaujolais hillsides, tasting wine with local growers and sharing laughter over cheese in hidden cellars. Expect lunch among the vines or at a cozy restaurant, visits to medieval castles and chapels, plus stories from guides who really know their region. It’s not just about wine—it’s about feeling part of this place for a day.
