If you’re a fan of French cycling, you simply can’t miss out on the cycling routes of Burgundy and Beaujolais. With our deep roots in the region, we’ve designed delightful rides that showcase famous spins from the Tour de France—as well as the region’s exceptional vintages and cuisine. Discover Dijon’s historic center—a medieval gem lined with timber-framed houses and stunning Gothic architecture. Pedal the famous Route des Grands Crus, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and explore the charming village of Nuits-Saint-Georges. In medieval Beaune, experience the heart of French opulence during a stay in a five-star hotel that was once a favorite accommodation of King Louis XIV. Browse the colorful and fragrant stalls of Beaune’s lively weekly market, discovering local specialties along the way. Deepen your knowledge of French vintages during a stay in a luxurious French chateau boasting 82 hectares of vines and a remarkable oenothèque, where you can sample some of the region’s most exquisite vintages.
Tour Highlights
- Ride through the world-famous vineyards of the Côte de Beaune, passing renowned wine villages along the UNESCO-listed Route des Grands Crus.
- Visit the 15th-century Hospices de Beaune, a masterpiece of flamboyant Gothic art and architecture.
- Enjoy an included guided visit and wine tasting at a historic château winery in Santenay, followed by a picnic lunch featuring fresh, local ingredients.
- Cycle the former railway line La Voie Tacot as it winds through forests, vine-covered hills, wheat fields, blackcurrant groves, and sleepy villages including Levernois and Sainte-Marie-la-Blanche.
- Discover Dijon and its beautifully preserved historic center, long a source of inspiration for artists, writers, and musicians, and explore its wealth of fascinating—and free—museums.
The Burgundy Wine Route trip was an exceptional vacation...it was a great mix of activity, leisure, learning and sightseeing. The trip leaders were personable, knowledgeable, and fun-loving, our fellow travelers were all interesting and friendly people, and the food, accommodations, and scenery were all first class. The daily route length choices ensured that everyone would be happy with their activity level, too. I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone who loves good food, wine, and outdoor activity. The pre and post trip extensions are also well worth it...especially the pre-trip in Lyon...there was so much to explore there!
