This list of flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated in the connecting travel section, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Please do not book your flights until we have confirmed your accommodation to you. Alternatively, our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice and to make flight bookings for you for any of the options listed above. We charge £35 per person for our flight booking service.

If you've experienced this holiday first hand, why not write a review?
We are keen for as many customers as possible to review their holiday. To make it easier to do so, we include a specific review section on our post-holiday questionnaire, and this is what we publish here, unedited. Read our full review policy >
Recommended - very leisurely cycling with ample opportunity to sample some amazing wine and food. Don't be put off by the distances per day, you follow a valley through the area so pretty much flat all the way. It's also an established 'path' - the "velo vertes" is fantastic. Highlights were the food at Hotel Dracy's restaurant, the many stop off's at various 'Caves' for tasting (!), seeing the pickers harvesting the grapes and the upgraded room in Beaune. Given you're eating out most evenings, watch out for closures of recommended restaurants and places to visit in the notes, luck of the draw depending on your dates of travel, but you can easily find alternative places and the hotel staff were also very helpful.
I booked with Inntravel after recommendations from friends. I'm not convinced I want to pay good money in future with the threat of poor hotel rooms or poorly maintained kit. Not a great first experience with Inntravel.
We appreciate the feedback, particularly where we have made recent changes to a holiday as in this instance, with the aim of improving the experience. We do offer an upgrade hotel in Beaune for anyone looking for a 5* finish to the holiday.
Book directly with Active Tours. There is no point in using Inntravel for this holiday.
I'm sure you won't put this on your website, but you probably should as it's an accurate description.
We're very sorry to hear that you didn't feel it worth booking the holiday with us. We appreciate your very detailed feedback sent to us directly, to which we have also responded.

The GPX maps were an excellent source. Hotel choices were excellent as was bike route.
Our personal highlight was le Montrachet...we hope it remains on future itineraries.
Great value, great tour, love Inntravel.
