They took the detour. We'll let them do the talking.

  • A culinary experience and a very enriching tour of Lille with our guide Julia, who was as friendly as she was professional. My partner and I were delighted with this Lille food tour. An absolute must-do

  • We had a great food tour with Julia, who is a fantastic guide! She handpicked all the addresses and it was nice to explore the local cuisine of Lille. We had a really good and fun time. You can really tell Julia works with passion and knows her stuff! I will blindly trust Julia again when I'm in Lille the next time 👏

  • A quality food tour with original addresses that make a change from the classic routes! I loved the time spent with Julia and I'll definitely try another of these tours, maybe the sweet one very soon.

  • A great way to discover Lille!

    We had an excellent time with Détours Food Tours! A lovely way to discover Lille differently, through its specialities and its great addresses.

    The tour was very friendly, well organised and above all… extremely generous! 😋 We didn't expect to eat so much! A little tip: whatever you do, don't eat before you go, you really won't need a meal beforehand!

  • We left our guide with regret!

    We were all captivated by the funny anecdotes and the history of the city. Lille has a truly vibrant food culture, which you can discover thanks to a few well-chosen detours!

    Special mention for the very welcome cocktail break :-)

About

Hi, I'm Julia

32 years old, a Lille local for 14 years and deeply in love with my city and all the surprises it holds.

I've always been close, in one way or another, to the local food scene. After two years as a guide, I wanted to create tours that look like me and showcase some of the finest secrets I know. And to welcome you, I'm surrounded by a team of guides as passionate as I am.

I can't wait to help locals rediscover their city, and to show those visiting for the first time all the riches of the capital of Flanders!
