Private Tour
Lyon: Private Burgundy Half Day Wine Tour by Vintage Land Rover
Overview
Available languages
5 hours
Mobile ticket
Take a Vintage Land Rover tour with us from Lyon to Burgundy. The south of Bourgogne/Burgundy produces white wine, it's a region known as Mâconnais which is the border with beaujolais region.
The area's first source of income is wine, it's not an industry, it's a lifestyle as there are mainly small producers who are free to create in their own style as long as they stay within limits defined by the industry.
We've been coming here forever, we know the ins and outs of the area and we take pride in being the friend of a friend you'd like to have in a place you didn't know.
We travel too and we hate being treated as tourists but we love being travelers. That's what we hope to do for you!
The tour description above is an outline of what we can do, we usually end up adapting the content of the half day to maximize the value for money and time you put in us.

5.00We loved our guide. Knowledgeable. Humorous. Completely immersed in the culture of wine making in Le Maconnais. We loved meeting wine makers in their wineries. We loved driving through the countryside on a gorgeous fall afternoon. A perfect experience.

5.00This experience was a gift for my husband. We arrived by train to Macon and our tour guide picked us in an antique Land Rover which made my husband travel back in time to his first car. Thomas took us to three different places to enjoy the burgundy region wines. The drive through the different vineyards and small villages was fabulous. Thomas knowledge and sympathy made this tour enjoyable.
Beautiful discovery of an atypical tour of this region.
