Description:

Journey southeast of Paris to the vineyard-dotted landscape of the Burgundy region. Absorb the delights of rural French culture as you explore the history and beauty of the charming town of Chablis, and enjoy a day of wine tasting, charismatic towns and villages, and a visit to a grand château.

In the comfort of a mini-coach, take in the gorgeous scenery as you swap Parisian cityscape for rolling country views as far as the eye can see. Start your day at the historic Château de Bazoches, a splendid example of a 12th-century castle where you can venture inside and step back in time to learn about its significant history.

Follow the picturesque route to the breathtakingly charming hillside village of Vezelay. Christian pilgrims have flocked to this village for centuries and remains as one of the official routes to Santiago de Compostela. Marvel at the incredible façade of the UNESCO-listed Basilique St-Marie-Madeleine and explore its grand limestone interior.

Sit down to a delicious traditional lunch at a local restaurant in the village before reaching the famous town of Chablis, world-renowned for its top-quality chardonnay. Explore the town’s charming streets and squares and head to one of the region’s top wine cellars to sample the excellent quality wines produced here, before making your way back to Paris by early evening.
