We stopped in the quiet village of Chablis. Where we met with an expert vintner for a taste and introduction to refreshing, steely whites. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Dijon La Cloche, Dijon.
The next day we had some free time and explored Dijon. Check out the #owls found all over the town! We also went to a #mustardstore - for obvious reasons.
In the evening, we went to Burgundy wine tasting and traditional dinner in the Premier Cru village of Fixin.
@silverfox40 - Agree - I feel like you don't get to truly experience the culture if you try to squish a bunch of countries all into a few weeks though you'll definitely hit some big items off your list!
I spent 2 weeks in France and 2 weeks is clearly not too long in France, 2 weeks are clearly not too long for most European countries. It's actually a huge mistake to rush it down and try to visit as many countries as possible within a couple of weeks. This seems more achievable, I'll dedicate more time in future. Great trip details
@stephwood - Thanks so much! We truly had a trip of a lifetime and hit everything we wanted to do! We were considering renting a car but some of the toll prices were just as much as to fill up your car (our tour guide was saying 100 E at the time). We would recommend to make sure to take that into consideration for your budget!
Such an amazing itinerary, I'd love to hire a car and spend the month exploring the country. Seems like great timescales to explore these areas well. Such variety too which makes for a great trip!
What a shame about your altitude sickness!!!!!
Sounds like a fairytale of a trip! The truffle hunting sounds super cool too!!!
