Our five night tour of the Burgundy region has been carefully orchestrated to incorporate the finer elements of France: fine wines, luxurious three and four star hotels, delightful cuisine, world class vineyards, a gentle rolling terrain, and a Burgundian “joie de vivre” that goes unsurpassed in France.
Burgundy is an ideal setting for a one week cycling tour. We explore the best of the Cote d’Or and then head south touching the Cote Challonaise. While the terrain is rolling, the landscapes are breathtaking. This tour is designed with the “touring cyclist” in mind, as one can easily cycle any segment with a moderate amount of experience. Distances are limited to 30 - 40 miles per day, and all rides are fully supported. Our “cycle at your own pace” itinerary enables you to enjoy the wine, food, history and culture of Burgundy.

The first two nights we will lodge in Gevrey-Chambertin at the Hotel Grand Crus, located in the heart of the Côte de Nuits wine region. All the rooms have a view out over the vineyards that make this area so famous; the setting alone makes the hotel a quiet and relaxing starting point on your journey, and is of particular interest to keen viticulturists.

| Beaune, the heart of Burgundy's wine region, is one of France's most interesting cities: its famous basilica, hospice, bell tower and ramparts are part of its heritage as, indeed, is Hotel Le Cep in the town centre. Once a private residence, it features a magnificent tower and a most beautiful stone staircase. |

| Highlights of this tour include a visit to Clos de Vougeot, the 15th century Hotel Dieu, medieval Chateau de la Rochepot and a private cellar wine tasting. If you’re an oenophile you won’t be disappointed. Wine tasting is a highlight of this tour and the history of wine in this region is a rich one. Please join us. |
