REASONS TO DISCOVER BURGUNDY
A wine lover’s haven, the town of Beaune is the capital of the Burgundy wine region. It’s described as majestic, with its cobbled streets and bountiful boutiques. Beaune is known for the Hospices de Beaune, a charitable institution once used to hospitalize the poor and needy: and its colorful tiled roof recognizable from afar. Also known as the Hôtel-Dieu, it was founded in the 15th century and surrounds a beautiful inner courtyard. Nowadays, this museum is host to the annual charity wine auction. Once in Beaune, make sure to visit the “Musee des Vins de Bourgogne” (a museum dedicated to Burgundy wines), and the “Moutarderie”, which holds an interactive exhibition about mustard!
All of our Burgundy Biking and Hiking tours stops in the city of Beaune.
Visitors to Burgundy should not miss its historical capital, Dijon, famous for its strong mustard. With its rich history dating back to Roman times, it has evolved into a friendly town that offers a wide variety of food, culture, shopping and nightlife – something for everyone! Our food and wine tours stop in Dijon.
This incredible work of architecture was once described by The Marquise de Sévigné as a French building ‘in Italian dress’. A must-see for any visitor to Burgundy, the château is perfectly symmetrical and surrounds a beautiful central courtyard. The interior boasts lofty carved ceilings, Italian tiled floors, and endless decorative details. It is also home to the finest collection of mural paintings in all of France.
The Burgundy countryside is the perfect atmosphere for leisure bike rides, and visitors will experience a brush with medieval history they won’t forget. Tiny villages, manor farms and millhouses, exquisite parish churches and open-air stone laundries by trickling streams are the soul of rural France and perfect for cycling vacations!
There are many festivals in Burgundy. From the Dijon Antic Fair in May to the various food and wine fairs year round, not to mention the Formula One French Grand Prix Race at Magny – in early July, there is something for everyone to enjoy! If you are in Burgundy in late June, do not miss the Blues festival in Le Creusot and if you come in November you will have the opportunity to attend Les Trois Glorieuses (a wine fair) in Beaune, the Dijon International Gastronomic Fair, or the Chablis Wine Festival! If you come at another time of the year, there are events coming up every month!
Burgundy is home to France’s most famous wine producing regions, and its products are known and enjoyed worldwide. Names like Beaune, Nuits-St-Georges, Chablis, and Meursault all hail from this region, where Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are grown extensively.
The vineyards south of Dijon divide into two distinct regions, Cote de Nuits, grouping most of the region’s prestigious reds, and Cote de Beaune, with reds only slightly less famous but still very good. Our Burgundy Bike and Hiking Tours will take you through all of the most famous vineyards.
In addition to the famous wine selection, Burgundy offers visitors delicious local foods, from traditional to gourmet. Dishes such as coq au vin (chicken cooked in wine) and beef bourguinon (beef simmered in red wine with mushrooms, small white onions and chunks of bacon) are world renowned. For a truly French culinary experience, try the snails: Escargots!
For cheese lovers, Epoisses and Soumaintrain are famous Burgundy cheeses, very rich in flavor. And of course, your Burgundy experience would not be complete without trying the famous Dijon Mustard.
The hills and plains of Burgundy are located in the east-central part of France, between the Morvan and the Vosges mountains. Burgundy is well-known for its wines, its fine gastronomy and also for its Roman architecture in Vezelay, Autun, and the noble ruins of Cluny.
The capital of Burgundy is Dijon where the famous mustard comes from. The region is rich in wheat and barley agriculture and wines. The best-known area is the Cote d’Or, home of the best Burgundy vineyards and the “Route du Vin” famous since the time of the Gallo-roman: Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos-Vougeot, Vosne-Romanee, Pommard, Meusault,…The vineyards south of Dijon divide into two distinct regions, Cote de Nuits, grouping most of the region’s prestigious reds, and Cote de Beaune, with reds only slightly less famous but still very good. Our Burgundy Bike and Hiking Tours will take you through all of the most famous vineyards.
During the 5th century A.D., a Germanic tribe called the Burgundians invaded and established the first kingdom of Burgundy in France. In 534, the Burgundians were conquered by the Merovingian rulers of the Francs and became part of the Carolingian Empire. Later, the region was divided in 2: the Duchy of Burgundy to the west (more or less the actual Burgundy), and the Free County of Burgundy to the east.
In the 15th century, the duchy of Burgundy with its court in Dijon dominated the French court economically and culturally. The situation led to a war, which allowed France to annex the old Duchy.

EXCELLENT Based on 235 reviews Robert M2025-01-02Verified Croatia Bike Tour = Amazing This is the second time we have used Discover France for a vacation in Europe, both trips were 10/10. This time was a little more special as this was part of our honeymoon! We booked the shorter Croatia trip through the Istrian peninsula and it did not disappoint.Our tour consultant, Solene, was amazing! She took care of everything and answered any questions we had throughout the process. She also made sure all the hotels knew that it was our honeymoon so we had a couple extra surprises waiting for us when we checked in at each hotel.We also needed several transfers to and from the airport which Solene was happy to help with. It made the trip so much less stressful when you are able to book everything through the same service.The bike tour itself was so much fun. The recommendations (sites to see, restaurants, cafes, etc) provided by Discover France were spot on. The locals were so friendly (and most spoke English which helped!). The food was delicious especially being in a wine and truffle region. We would 100% do this trip again!Thank you Solene and Discover France! Justin T2024-11-26Verified 5th time (and lifelong) return customer Hands down the best adventure organization I’ve ever worked with abroad. This will be my 5th time returning to the TdF in 2025 with Discover France. Gabriel and the reservation team do everything they can to make your trip exactly as you hope. If there’s something they can or cannot do they work with you all the way. It’s a very one-on-one, professional and reassuring process for reservations abroad. The programs are incredibly memorable, with exclusive VIP access that exceeds any other TdF organizations. Their focus is the riding, course, and to make sure your experience on a bike is as good as it can possibly be. Other programs offer different bells and whistles to their TdF packages but absolutely nothing is as exclusive, personalized, and uniquely small-group as Discover France programs. You do not need to be an expert rider for the programs. But experience and at least comfort on a bike is needed. The rides can also be tailored on a daily (or even hourly) basis to the rider/group skill, weather, overall energy level that day, and your personal preferences. Support vehicle with special French credentials allows for Discover France to provide a van with you the entire trip. Sun, clouds, rain, sleet/snow (yes…it’s the Pyrenees or Alps), hot and cold: there is always a vehicle that can help you along the way and offer a place to bring along your gear like the professionals. Shout out to: Florentin and Titouan for spectacular rides and support expertise. Finally, Thomas and Aurelian are two of the most dedicated cycling enthusiasts and leaders of a one-of-kind organization. Their dedication and leadership is evident from the top down as all of the guides and employees seem to love their works as much as they do. Kevin P2024-11-24Verified Puglia in October This is the second year in a row that our group of friends have chosen Discover France. This time to Puglia. And again, the experience was fantastic. It starts with our tour consultant, Gabriel, who is responsive and truly cares that we have a great holiday. This year, we requested a one-day diversion off the usual route and the Discover France team mapped a great route for us. We also appreciate how the bikes are in good shape and all is well organized for our arrival. The route was generally on bike paths or tertiary roads and relatively flat - a well designed route for sure. joel w2024-10-27Verified Costa Brava Spain This is our 4th bike trip with Discover France, and they never seize to amaze us. We have been working with Solene, and she is remarkably professional, responsive, and most importantly, she listens to our "wish list" of preferences, and makes suggestions with that in mind. All our trips have been in France, with this one in Costa Brava. We loved biking in this region of Spain. Most of the biking was on gravel trails, and kept us off the roads. The scenery was beautiful, particularly the small coastal towns. The itinerary was well planned and we enjoyed the 2 night stays in each village, in lieu of moving nightly. I would recommend this route. I will be reaching back out to Solene to book our next trip. She is wonderful and I wouldn't consider using another bike tour company. Safe biking..... Alisha Stephen C2024-10-16Verified Loire Valley success. My girlfriend and I had an amazing experience doing the Loire Valley ride from Amboise to Chenhuette. Gabriel and team Discover France were very always responsive and available to help us. The routes were well thought out. Once you master the App, they are very easy to follow. The hotels were amazing and the staff at each one had a good relationship with DF. The bikes were amazing - Moustache Dimanche 28.4. They made this trip the success that it was. Rob W2024-10-08Verified Puglia Bike Just finished a bike trip to Puglia. Gabriel did an awesome job! Great hotels, bikes, routes and destination advice. We would highly recommend having Gabriel at Discover France plan your routes. My brother and sister have also used Gabriel and were extremely happy as well Don Y2024-10-04Verified Cotswolds This was the 4th trip using Discover France and each time has been amazing. This trip was to the Cotswolds in the UK. The organization of the trip (specifically Gabriel service) was outstanding. The hotels were all great and scenery was beautiful. We had one day of heavy rain but that added to the allure and challenge of the rides. Thanks to all at Discover France and of course Gabriel. Robert M2024-10-01Verified Loire Valley Classic - Great trip! Our first trip with Discover France but I hope not our last. Tatiana put together a great itinerary for our self-guided trip. The hotels were lovely, clean and biker-friendly, with most in former chateaux themselves. The bikes (2 regular, 1 e-bike) were in great condition and well-equipped, and the orientation session was very thorough. Luggage service worked as promised. Discover France did a good job minimizing our time on busy roads - almost all the trip was on bike paths or roads with little vehicular traffic. No complaints from us! JB-in-SB2024-09-26Verified Bordeaux-Dordogne: The best trip yet! Our third trip with Discover France, from Bordeaux to Sarlat in the Dordogne, was the best one yet. Loved the countryside, the food, the hotels, everything. For the first time I rode a pedal-assist bike, and it was a game-changer for me now that I'm in my sixties -- no more worrying at night about climbs I might be facing the following day.! My husband stuck to the standard touring bike and it worked out well for both of us. Working with Gabriel was a breeze. Thanks, Discover France -- we'll be back! Janet G2024-09-25Verified Loire Valley Classic: An Incredible Tour One of the most visually compelling bike tours we’ve done in Europe. All the major chateaux in the Loire Valley are located along the route, which is largely comprised of bike trails and/or little-trafficked country lanes. The local food and wines are exceptional. Discover France is a first-class operation; we’ve worked with them before, and will again on our next visit to France. Their entire team is great; extra kudos to our tour consultant, Solene Graino.
