Discover Burgundy Your Way: Private 4-Day Wine Tour with 5-Star Dijon Hotel

FAQ

• What is Burgundy Wine?

  Burgundy wines are red or white wines that are made in the Burgundy wine producing region of France. Burgundy red wine is famous for being a 100% varietal wine that uses the Pinot Noir grape variety. Burgundy white wines are also very famous and mainly use Chardonnay as their main grape variety.

• What type of vehicles are used during your France vacation Travel Packages?  

  Our company only uses only premium cars & minivans that can take up to a maximum of 8 passengers. All vehicles are new or recent, comfortable, spacious and have A/C.

• Who conducts your private tours in Burgundy?

  All our tours are conducted by English speaking local guides, experts in the destination where they are based. Most of them are fully licensed guides that are authorized to make commentaries in museums, monuments and historical city centers. In the wine regions, most of them hold the WSET level 2 in wines & sprits or are professional sommeliers.

• Where Should I stay, in Beaune or Dijon?

  This is a recurring question for those of you that wish to visit the Burgundy region of France. In fact both destinations make for a great starting point for Wine Tours and we offer day trips and wine tours out of both Beaune and Dijon. So the main difference is that Beaune is a small town set more or less in the middle of the Burgundy Wine Region.
  
  Dijon is more a small city located at the northern tip of the Burgundy wine region. Since it is larger, you will have more choices when it comes to hotels, restaurants and things to do in town. Your choice will therefore depend on what type of activities or ambiance you are looking for when not on a wine tour.
