      The perfect tour for seeing the countryside and learning so much about the archeology, history, fables and wine of the region. The tour guide was incredibly generous with so much interesting information. He was a fantastic tour guide on the perfect tour.

      Valentin, our guide, was amazing. The tour took us to three beautiful small very and very old villages and a wine tasting. Great bistro for lunch. With a small group, it was a very relaxing day and much better than renting a car to do the same trip which is what I originally considered.

      A very nice trip, saw a lot of Burgundian countryside, commented by our guide. In the villages our knowledgeable guide Valentin gave insight into the local history. Can be recommended to anyone who is interested not only in the great wines of Burgundy.
