Arrive & Depart At Any Time

Your Day by Day Itinerary

  1. Day 1 - Arrival into Arrive in Meursault/Saint-Romain

    Lyon is the closest large airport although the Eurostar or flying into Paris is an option for arrival into the Burgundy region.

    Depending on when you arrive, we recommend finding the time to walk up to the ruins of the Château of Saint-Romain. From here, the views across the valley are truly spectacular and introduce you to Burgundy in the perfect way. We also suggest visiting the 'Tonnerie François Frères' where wine barrels are made and distributed all over the world.

  2. Day 2 - Loop ride from Saint Romain

    36km total distance

    Today's ride is a circular one through the Côte de Beaune. Visit old mansions, ride through vast vineyards and across undulating fields. You will visit a number of villages and towns from the more commonly known Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet to the hidden gems of Chaudenay and Corcelles-Les-Arts. A beautiful ride for the first day on the bike and the perfect introduction to the wine region.

  3. Day 3 - Saint-Romain to Aloxe-Corton

    22km total distance

    Today you will only ride 22km giving plenty of time to explore the different destinations on the way. Begin the day with a ride to Beaune, the wine capital of the Côte d'Or, rumoured to have been founded by Julius Ceasar in 52 B.C. Following a delicious lunch, enjoy a walk round Beaune and discover the hidden Gothic secrets that sit within the intricate architecture. Before you conclude your day in Aloxe-Corton, you will jump back on the bike and ride through fields of sunflowers, wheat and corn. Aloxe-Corton, like a number of its neighbouring villages, is celebrated for its unique wine and holds a Grand Cru status.

  4. Day 4 - Loop ride from Aloxe-Corton

    32km total distance

    Today will be a slightly longer day on the bike and is made up of relaxing riding and peaceful countryside landscapes. Ride past historic castles and stop by the traditional farming villages of 'La Bourgogne'. From Chorey-lès-Beaune, ride through to the Côte-de-Nuits region and stop for a break and a bite to eat in one of the quiet farm villages. Today is a great day to explore on your own and spend time in the places you feel most suit you. Return to Aloxe-Corton where you'll spend the night.

  5. Day 5 - Aloxe-Corton to Gilly-lès-Cîteaux

    26km total distance

    You will come across a couple of small climbs today but these are separated by smooth country lanes, sleepy villages and oak forests. The climbs will be rewarded with incredible views over the vineyards whilst the quaint villages of Comblanchien, Buits-St-Georges and others will, without doubt, form some of the highlights of your trip.

  6. Day 6 - Loop ride from Gilly-lès-Cîteaux

    38km total distance

    Another scenic ride lays ahead through the 17th Century mansions of Chouchey and the castle of Brochon. Here, the 19th-century poet, Stephen Liégeard lived. You will join onto a slightly busier road today for short periods of your ride but the majority of the route will return you to country lanes.

  7. Day 7 - Departure from Gilly-lès-Cîteaux

    We can provide airport transfers or simply make your way back to Beaune train station for your onward journey LOIRE VALLEY AND CHATEAU TOUR.png

What our Cyclists Say

Awesome customer Service like it used to be. I admit that I'm one of many people who have taken to booking holidays and flights direct to save a few quid. But when planning my husband's 50th birthday and knowing very little about cycling I decided to try Love Velo and I can't recommend them, and the service I've received from James Danvers highly enough.

I booked through Love Velo because the reviews were so good. I wasn't disappointed. Right from my first contact with LV they were easy to talk to and although I dithered (my first cycling trip abroad) they didn't press me. When I eventually confirmed my booking they took care of everything.

Everything about Love Velo has been faultless. From the initial notification of them teaming up with Le Col and to the pricing being unbelievable and then the customer service, top class. James, if all the staff are as attentive to every detail as you are then everyone will be as lucky as I have been. 100% at some point, hopefully in the near future I will be booking again with you guys. Thank you again
