The trip includes 2 wineries and plenty of free time in Beaune for lunch and shopping or sightseeing. Our guide Ann was very knowledgeable about the area and the wines. She also was very obliging when we wanted to take some photos. _br/_ We came back from the tour with good knowledge of the different wines of Burgundy. Thoroughly recommended

Very personal experience. Excellent guide was informative and entertaining. Got to see vineyards, wine cellars, and the beautiful city of Beaune up close and personal. Interacted with growers and towns people. Fun filled day of learning and social enjoyment.

Very educational, whether you know a lot about wine or only a little. I give it four stars instead of five because a I would've liked one more tasting three rather than just two, and b our guide, though knowledgable and delightful, spent a bit too much time flirting with the full-of-themselves young ladies from Singapore. You can't choose your fellow tourers of course, but this was a little off-putting. Otherwise, thoroughly enjoyable and well worth the price.

This a great way to get real good info and access to wineries. And of course to taste wines. The guide was excellent- very knowledgeable, humorous, and a good commuicator (a Frenchman who spoke perfect English). If you’re visiting the area I recommend doing this tour!

Excellent tour! It started with our guide Stephen who was very knowledgeable about the region, the wineries and the wines. The fact that we were a small group of 8 people was, in my opinion, also a plus. I have to reservations about recommending this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the Bourgogne don't call it Burgundy region, it's history and it's very good wines.

We got to try many great wines and had a decent amount of free time in Beaune to get lunch and explore the town. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The small size made it easy to get to know our other tour-goers. I would recommend this tour!

It was great fun. Emmanuel very efficiently managed our two wine tastings and the tours around the vineyards. He was very knowledgeable and able to clearly explain aspects of growing grapes and assessing wines. I now understand what a French wine label conveys about the origin and quality of the wine. I also now understand more about the importance and complexity of the acidity, tannin and overall impression. The look, the smell and the taste are all parts of the experience. Definitely recommend to other travellers

This tour was amazing!

Yesterday's wine tour was exceptional. Our guide, Valentine, is a young man who is clearly passionate and very knowledgeable about both wine growing and and production. He worked in the fields and production lines of two local wineries while in college, fell in love with wine making and became a sommelier. He's working as a tour guide to further his dream of having his own winery.

This was the highlight of our two week trip in France. Stéphane was extremely knowledgeable, kind, accommodating, and passionate. We learned so much about Burgundy wines, how to smell and taste the many great wines of this area. Highly recommended.

Amazing tour! We had Stefan as our guide Sorry if I misspelled that. You really had the opportunity to learn about anything and everything about Burgundy. The passion was unbelievable. Highly recommend this trip.
Review by: Robert B, April 2017
This was a full day tour. The guide - Stephane was absolutely fabulous. He was knowledgable and very friendly and informative - the day went by very quickly and it could have lasted much longer we had such a great time. The 2 wineries we visited were tremendous, especially Bouchard Aine and Fils which was definitely the best of the 2. We had sufficient time for lunch and a leisurely stroll through Beaune. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour.

This was an absolutely amazing tour. Our guide was fantastic!! I'm sorry! I forgot his name! : _br/_ I recommend this tour. We tasted fantastic wines and our guide was very knowledgeable.
Review by: David G, October 2016
A great way to spend 7 hours and see parts of Brugundy. Ivan, our guide, was knowledgeable and interesting. Knowin all the back roads alone was worth his guidance. The day was dreary and wet, but the VW van was clean and comfortable accommodating 6 of us easily. We tasted 11 wines at two different wineries in two different parts of the region and visited iconic vineyards as well.

Amazing tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide. Thank you Nick for all your insights. Dijon has a great system for tours and easy to find. _br/_ This wine tasting was exceptional. We learned about their appellation system and much of its history. We visited a large establishment during harvest time so we got to see grapes for crushing delivered. We also visited a small vintner and tasted grand and premier crus. Here we were able to observe grapes being hand picked while seeing Château de Gevrey-Chambertin._br/_ Toured the countryside and had time to walk around Beaune and to eat lunch in a beautiful cafe. Great tour for beginners and for experienced wine tasters.
