Description

Burgundy is renowned for its warm hospitality and inimitable knack for enjoying life, rich in tradition, gastronomy, history, and excellent wines. Even before Julius Caesar fought his decisive battles with the Gaulles, people have been lured to this beautiful land of gently rolling landscapes, sleepy villages, rivers and canals. Burgundy is the old France, a land of culture, countryside and fine food. The perfect destination for a family trip.
