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.
