About this tour
An eight-hour loop through three medieval villages radiating from Dijon, this tour threads together Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, Semur-en-Auxois, and Châteauneuf-en-Auxois. Your English-speaking driver knows the region's wine story and architectural layers. You'll navigate cobbled streets, peer at 12th-century fortifications, and absorb the quieter side of Burgundy beyond the vineyard hype. Bring your own lunch or eat locally; the minivan moves you between stops.

What to expect
You'll depart Dijon in a small minivan, allowing proper navigation of narrow village lanes inaccessible to larger groups. Each stop offers 60–90 minutes to wander at your pace. Flavigny-sur-Ozerain's alleyways reward leisurely strolling; Semur-en-Auxois demands camera time for its riverside setting and church spire. Châteauneuf's château terrace provides panoramic views. Your driver offers colour and context via live commentary. Expect mostly walking on uneven cobbles; wear sturdy shoes. The route is not strenuous but involves exploring on foot.
