Treat yourself to an original, unusual, fun, 100% vineyard experience! Climb aboard a magnificent vintage sidecar and head for the prestigious vineyards of Burgundy, in complete safety!
Gilles, your Gentleman Sider, will welcome you as a friend and share his passion for wine and the region with you. He'll show you the wine villages, the most beautiful landscapes and viewpoints.
Departure is from Meursault, capital of the great white wines of Burgundy, also famous for its glazed-tile town hall that became a cult following in the film "La Grande Vadrouille".
Still surrounded by the best vintages of the Côte Sud de Beaune, the itinerary will take you along little-travelled back roads to reveal the most secret corners of the region. The tours are designed to give you the very first keys to understanding Burgundy's terroir, and then inspire you to find out more from the many professionals in the sector.
The two-hour escapade is enhanced by a commented tasting of a glass of wine and some gougères (Burgundy specialities) in situ in a remarkable place surrounded by vines.
Photo stops are regularly scheduled at the best locations (see highlights of each tour), but we can also make a stop at your request if you particularly like the place.
Each sidecar carries two people: one in the basket and one behind the driver, making this a unique and unforgettable experience.
Perfect for couples.
ENJOY A UNIQUE ADVENTURE IN AN AUTHENTIC SIDECAR AS YOU DISCOVER THE VINEYARDS!
