The concept of our tours is that there's no tour: each ride is private and tailor made around your expectations. your insider/guide will contact you 72h prior to your time with us to create the day's program.
The following is an example of what we could do together:
Board our vintage Land Rovers and head into the back roads of Beaujolais to explore private medieval castles, wineries, local craftsmen, local producers (honey, cheese, charcuterie, 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.
So kick back, relax, and let us drive you to the best secret spots in Beaujolais!
Note that we offer a private pick-up option in Lyon or alternatively we provide courtesy return train tickets from Lyon, ride duration 35 mins.
What's Included
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.
