Description

Burgundy is renowned for its warm hospitality and inimitable knack for enjoying life, rich in tradition, gastronomy, history, and excellent wines. Even before Julius Caesar fought his decisive battles with the Gaulles, people have been lured to this beautiful land of gently rolling landscapes, sleepy villages, rivers and canals. Burgundy is the old France, a land of culture, countryside, fine food and wine. Stately historic châteaux, miles of straight Roman roads and magnificent Romanesque churches give constant reminders of Burgundy’s heritage. The beauty of its traditional architecture will pleasantly surprise you.

Day by day

Day 1 Dijon

Arrival at the hotel in Dijon. At approximately 6.30 pm, you will be greeted by our team member and on top of your travel documents, you will receive additional information. Now you have the opportunity to explore the former hometown of the Dukes of Burgundy. The gothic abbey church Notre Dame, the duke’s palace with its statues and the impressive city palaces built in the 17th and 18th century are worth a visit.

Day  2  Dijon – Beaune  43 km

The rolling vineyard countryside is waiting. This is the heart of Burgundy and you will savour it. Don’t miss a visit to the wine château of Aloxe Corton, with its delightfully ornate roof, or the 12th Century Clos de Vougeot Château, which was the property of the Citeaux Abbey for several centuries.  In Nuits St Georges you will have a tasting in the world-renowned wine village that has produced wine for a thousand years.

Day 3  Beaune – Beaune 32 km

You can visit the famous hospice in the morning. Afterwards you are going to leave Beaune headed to world-famous wine villages like Pommard. The cycling path leads you straight through the vineyard. In the evening you will return to Beaune.
