Since the 11th
century AD, the Burgundy region of France has been synonymous with great wine.
It has also been synonymous with breathtaking scenery, with
steep limestone hills carpeted in vineyards winding along the Saône River. On
this fascinating itinerary, you’ll enjoy both, as you cycle the Route des
Grands Crus and enjoy a wine tasting as our guest. You’ll also visit the Gothic
Hospice de Beaunes … explore the capital of Burgundy, charming Dijon … roll
along a picturesque canal … and taste the region’s delicious cuisine in a
private home and at a cooking school. It’s a VBT experience par excellence!
