"Janete and I have returned from our Burgundy, France, biking trip and we both wanted to confirm we were pleased beyond expectation with the level of effort, professionalism and overall care that had gone into arranging our itinerary. The hotels were excellent, the food delicious, the wine tastings delightful, and the biking routes most enjoyable."

Additional Information
Where do we rendezvous on day one of the Burgundy bicycle trip?
Your two DuVine guides will meet you at the train station in Beaune on the first morning or your tour. Contact your DuVine tour coordinator at least 60 days prior to your trip; they will book your rail tickets into the city of Beaune. At this time you can also review with them any pre- & post-travel plans you have or wish to make.
Where does the Burgundy bicycle trip finish?
We will depart the hotel in the late morning for the train station to catch a TGV train to Paris, or any other destination of your choice.

What travel documents will I need for my Burgundy bike trip?
All travelers to France are required to have a valid passport. Please make 2 copies of your passport, and personal identification before you depart. Keep one set of copies with you in a separate location from your travel documents, and leave the other set of copies with a contact at home before you depart.

What is the average daily mileage in Burgundy?
The average daily mileage is about 20-30 miles (28-38km). There will be daily options for riding additional or fewer miles.
How should I get in DuVine shape?
The best way to prepare for your DuVine bicycle trip is to spend some time on the saddle. We understand that you might be limited in the amount of riding you can do, but try to engage in some type of cardiovascular activity. As you prepare for your trip, try to bicycle some hills and some flat stretches — the kind of terrain that you will find on your Burgundy bicycle tour. We have different riding options everyday and, of course, great van support.
How should I pack?
Please limit your luggage to one medium-sized suitcase and one carry-on. Complete your DuVine luggage tag with your name, address and phone number. Try not to over pack; you will not wear all your clothing! A suggested packing list is enclosed.
