Lulu was full of knowledge and facts and went above and beyond to tailor the tour to our specific needs. We ate so much, we didn’t need to go our for dinner that night! Highly recommended for everyone, whatever your diet.

Excellent in all ways. LouLou, our guide, was passionate and thoughtful. I appreciated her sharing a bit about her own transition to veganism and asking the participants to share their stories.

Lulu is a super guide. In addition to taking us to many fine vegan restaurants and a patisserie she showed us the Croix Rousse on a very interesting tour. She also informed us about Lyon's impressive history. In all a very fun and informative tour.

We’re not vegan but thought it might be interesting to try anyway. Definitely worthwhile. Lots of interesting information about vegan food and the Croix Rousse area of Lyon. And the food we tries was excellent.

Went on this tour and had a great experience. Lulu the guide is French, but her English is excellent. She was very friendly, informed and passionate about the subject matter and her city. Its not just a food tour, she intersperses with little bits of history along the way. In a couple of the venues, we were able to chat to the owner/chef. It's a good stretch of the legs, but interested parties should note that the starting point requires some uphill walking, which might be difficult for some. So either use public transport or allow sufficient time. Very enjoyable afternoon.

I am a non-vegan (and non-vegetarian) and booked this tour because my children are vegetarians, but did so somewhat reluctantly because my image of French cuisine is not very vegan-inclusive. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased at how good the food was on this tour! We sampled pastries, sandwiches, burgers, ice cream, pralines, all vegan and all really yummy. We went back to the patisserie featured in the beginning of the tour the next day because it was so good. Best of all was our excellent, knowledgeable, and charming guide, Lulu, who not only took us to these wonderful food establishments but also along the way gave us a taste (ha!) of the street art, traboules, and history of the Croix Rousse area in Lyon. She also had further suggestions and recommendations for other restaurants and areas to visit in town for after the tour. I highly recommend this tour, as it shows another side of French cuisine and culture, and the food will please you whether you are vegan or not.

Don’t eat ahead of time… portions are generous. Guide is super knowledgeable about vegan jam and croix rousse history. All around happy with my choice!

During our short stay in Lyon, we fell upon this vegan food tour. Since we know some French, we thought it might be interesting to do even though we are not (yet) vegan or vegetarian. Luckily, it was a great experience, and the guide knew tons of stuff, both about the city and of course the vegan food and lifestyle. We highly recommend!

This was a great moment with our guide Ludivine, she took us down the Hill of Croix Rousse and we had some delicious vegan food along the way. We were full at the end of the tour, so avoid eating before !! The explanation of Ludivine were clear and passionate : we talked about many things between the food stops :) Thanks again, Heinrich.
