All that you have heard about France, and much that you haven’t. Biking through the world’s most precious vineyards, and sampling their produce. 15th century villages, canal tow paths, dramatic castles, some of France’s finest cuisine. Grey & Poupon, it turns out, were two guys who ran mustard shops across the street from each other in Dijon.

Beyond vineyard biking, our Burgundy Biking trip spends a lot of its time “off the beaten track,” in wild and undiscovered scenery or pastoral farmlands, far from the famous wine towns and their relative bustle. Religious history, the machinations of the Hapsburgs, and medieval markets are all part of your holiday....
