06Frequently asked questions

Before you book.

How much does a ticket to the Little Wine Museum in Lyon cost?
Admission to the Little Wine Museum is €32 per person, all inclusive. Reduced rate €25: under 26s, students, jobseekers, recipients of French social minima (RSA, ASS, AAH) and visitors with a disability, on presentation of valid proof. The carer accompanying a visitor with a disability is admitted free of charge. This price covers the sensory journey through 4 themed spaces and a tasting of 8 wines. No additional charge applies on-site.
What are the opening hours of the Little Wine Museum?
The museum is open Thursday to Sunday: Thursday and Friday from 3 pm to 9 pm, Saturday from 11 am to 9 pm (last entry 7:30 pm), Sunday from 2 pm to 7 pm (last entry 5:30 pm). Online booking is recommended to secure your place.
What is included in the museum experience?
The approximately 1-hour journey moves through 4 themed spaces: the history of wine, terroirs, winemaking and the trades behind wine (interviews). It ends with a tasting of 8 wines, at your own pace with the team on hand: Beaujolais crus, Côtes-du-Rhône, natural wines, orange wines. Explanatory materials are available in 7 languages.
Where is the Little Wine Museum located in Lyon?
The Little Wine Museum is located at 3 rue Passet, Lyon 7th arrondissement (Guillotière neighbourhood). Accessible by metro line D or tram T1, stop Guillotière.
Is it necessary to book in advance?
Advance booking is strongly recommended, especially on weekends and during French school holidays. Tours depart at fixed times and places are limited to ensure a quality immersive experience.
Is the tasting guided or self-paced?
Both. You taste at your own pace, with no one rushing you, but never alone in front of the glasses. A member of the team is present throughout the tasting: you can ask them your questions, and 3 of the 8 wines, chosen by the museum, are talked through with you. The team is trained in-house in tasting and in the wines being poured.
Can I come with children or a pet?
Children are welcome when accompanied by an adult, and grape juice is offered instead of wine. Pets are not allowed in the cellars: only very small dogs carried in the arms may be accepted, at the team's discretion, as the cellars are an enclosed, vaulted and echoing space.
