Fabulous trip through wine country
My wife and I very much enjoyed our trip. Very manageable stages done with normal peddle bikes. we in our mid 50's, generally in good shape but very casual cyclists. Interesting stops & scenery the whole way, and wonderful food and wine. Good mix of remote and rural stops as well as larger towns (Beane & Cluny). The end stop (Macon) is the least interesting, I don't suggest extra time there, but you are right next to the train station for a quick exit. Overall, highly recommended!

Great Bike Trip Through Burgundy
The company was easy to work with to set up trip. Meetings were easy and info provided worked well. Accommodations were fine and bikes were great. The gps app provided worked well and the trails were great. There was a major detour where path was closed for work that got a little interesting finding our way, would have been good if we had been forewarned. The information on sites to visit and wineries along the trail would have been nice to have a couple weeks before the trip to make reservations, they were provided the day prior to starting. All in we had a great time the scenery and towns were amazing. France is a great place to do a bike trip as they have a very strong biking culture. We loved it.

A wonderful and nice surprise!
Honestly... as we arrived in Beaune, after five days in the intense Paris, we got depressed and were about to give up on the tour. It was Sunday and almost everything was closed and there was almost nobody in the streets. As we went for a walk around this curious and medieval city, it started to look interesting. We decided to, at least, try the bike ride scheduled for the next day. And so it all began. The track, the field covered with vineyards, wheat, hay and sunflower, the small villages, the cozy pre-summer weather, enchanted us. Some winery were opened, so we could do some tasting and buy some peculiar wines, which gave additional brightness to the trip. Locals were very kind. The physical exercise itself... it all changed our minds completely. So, as to enjoy even more, we opted for electric bikes. Each day was a 5 to 6 hour ride full of discoveries and stop-overs, different kinds of tracks, many new old villages and delightful sceneries, sprinkled by wonderful chardonnay and pinot noir. Charming places to picnic, many photos, lots of tastes and smells. Resting in comfortable beds and dinning the Bourgogne gastronomy. It was not the trip of our dreams. It was a dream itself!

Epic Dream Come True
It was such a great way to experience the Burgundy Region. The bikes were great. The accommodations were good. The bike paths were phenomenal. The vistas were unforgettable and the weather co-operated.
We would recommend this trip. -

Everything i wanted and more.! I am very very pleased with the experience.
My tour was something I will remember forever. The bike was well equipped for the tour. The phone holder worked very well and the app was easy to use. My favourite part of the tour quickly became the first 20 min of the day after leaving the hotel and having a beautiful morning ride of out the towns into the country side. The scenery was so so lush and green. Birds singing, flowers blooming everywhere. We took a long slow lunch in the many beautiful towns and had a wonderful experience. Will be taking about this trip to everyone!

Great bike tour !
Excellent way to experience France ! Charming hotels, friendly locals all saying "Bonjour!", amazing cycling network, we were self-guided, but were provided with a great cycling app which told us when we were off course. Some suggestions: I wish we were told that leaving Chassey Le Camp was not the same way as our arrival...as the mountain climb was painful and we did not have an e-bike; the Fleur De Sel restaurant was not very friendly, maybe someone should check if they want to be mentioned in a booklet for cyclists; and when we arrived at noon to a couple of restaurants in Cormatin, they said they were full inside and outside despite having empty seats, we think it was because we were dirty biking through the rain, so you should warn other cyclists.
