Activities & sports

Organized bike tours with a guide on the Côte de Beaune & the Côte de Nuits

The proposed hikes take place over a day or half a day.
I know... You think that cycling and wine tasting at wineries are not compatible activities... or maybe you are not in the sporty enough mood to commit to 26 km of cycling. Yet I can assure you that this concept is very nice (and particularly suitable for the less athletic among us :-)! The trick, for example, is that a minibus from Beaune takes you to the highest point of the mountain of St Romain, so your route is essentially composed of gentle descents… easy!

Florian & his assistants, your friendly tour guide!

Florian is a qualified cycling guide. He is from the region which he knows very well. Florian is also fluent in English. He is a very nice and friendly person. His enthusiasm will help you spend an unforgettable day! Florian also has very good knowledge of Burgundy wines and tasting techniques, he will be a valuable guide during your stops in the cellar.
