Description

Discover Beaujolais and its special winter vibe on this half-day tour from Lyon. Guided by a local insider and aboard a vintage Land Rover, this cozy tour takes you straight to what makes this region unique ! We love to share the Beaujolais beyond the obvious ! We will then start the day with a cup of mulled wine while exploring an eclectic and impressive collection of vintage motorcycles at Jacky Grolet house, winemaker and collector. After this unusual introduction to the region, your Insider will take you to an authentic local wine estate to visit it and taste great Beaujolais wines ! We will end this morning ride with something we love to share with visitors : a traditional mâchon. Wondering what a mâchon is? It’s the winemakers’ convivial way of sharing food — local charcuterie, cheese, and a glass of wine.
