Overview
Board our vintage Land Rovers and let's head into the back roads of Beaujolais. We'll take you through the best of what Beaujolais has to offer: private medieval castles, wineries, local craftsmen, local producers (honey, cheese, cold cuts, truffles, etc.). Beaujolais has 10 crus (top wines); we can cover most of them in that full day. Lunch will either be in a local restaurant or on a picnic we'll set up in the vineyards. We focus on what we love, which is usually food, wine, anecdotes, history, architecture, and landscapes. We'll stop in a vineyard to open a few bottles of wine and taste local cold cuts and cheese with a gorgeous view of the region. All our rides are private and tailor-made, so we'll happily adjust the above to your centers of interest. So kick back, relax, and let us drive you to the best secret spots in Beaujolais! Note that we offer a premium pick-up in Lyon option or alternatively we provide courtesy return train tickets from Lyon, ride duration 35 mins.
Meeting and Pickup
We will provide on request courtesy return train tickets from Lyon, with timetable and directions to meet with us in Belleville en Beaujolais. At the end of our day, we'll ensure you're on time at the station for an easy train ride back into Lyon.
