Itinerary

Experience the essence of Burgundy on the "Burgundy Canals and Vineyards" tour, a 7-day self-guided bicycle journey through southern France’s most celebrated wine country. Ideal for experienced travelers and seniors seeking moderate activity, this trip winds from Beaune through Chassay-le-Camp, St Boil, and picturesque villages dotted with Romanesque art and historic chateaux.

Cycle along the scenic Voie Verte cycleway, past rolling hills blanketed with vineyards, and discover charming hamlets brimming with local produce. Pause to sample wines at cellar doors or enjoy leisurely lunches in regional restaurants. Handpicked hotels offer comfort and a taste of true Burgundy hospitality each evening.

The highlight of this tour package is the perfect blend of cycling through storied landscapes and indulging in world-renowned wines, making it an exceptional choice for those who appreciate culture, history, and gastronomy in equal measure.

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled. (Even when we got lost) The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative. Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities. Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
