Description
See at least five top wine areas (crus) of Beaujolais by vintage Land Rover Defender starting from Lyon. You'll eat local cheese and cold cuts and we won't ask you to spit the wine while tasting it!
We'll take you over the following crus in Beaujolais: Saint Amour, Moulin à Vent, Chenas, Fleurie and Julienas. We focus on what we love which is usually made of food, wine, anecdotes, history, architecture and landscapes.
We'll stop in the vineyards to open a few bottles of wine and taste local cold cuts and cheese with a gorgeous view on the region.
All our rides are private and tailor made so we'll happily adjust the above to your centers of interests.
Lunch will either be a picnic in the vines (weather allowing) or a restaurant, depending on your preferences.
So kick back, relax and let us drive you to the best secret spots of Northern Beaujolais!
All our tours start from the Belleville sur Saone train station if you want to beat morning traffic pr from downtown Lyon.
