Private Southern Burgundy Wine Tour
Spend a full day exploring Southern Burgundy aboard a vintage Land Rover with a passionate local Insider.
Your tour starts in Lyon, with train tickets provided or private transfer depending on option chosen. Once in Burgundy, you'll follow scenic backroads to hidden vineyards and lesser-known spots only locals know.
Enjoy at least four wine tasting stops — a mix of small producers, cooperatives, or even tastings right in the middle of the vines.
One of the highlights of the tour is a visit to Philippe’s home, a former winemaker turned druid with a remarkable private wine cellar.
Depending on your interests, your Insider may guide you to a hilltop chapel, medieval ruins, or a unique goat cheese farm in a former Cluniac priory and Celtic site — where the cheese is only sold on-site.
A day of discovery, flavour and connection in the heart of Burgundy.
