A lot of people just drive through Burgundy to reach the Alps or the south of France but at Triptailor, we feel it's worth stopping over and recommend you visit the area. Why visit Burgundy? Because it is a very hospitable region, where the food is exquisite and where some of the best wine in the world is produced. You could start with Auxerre and move on to the Chablis Vineyards. Continue your tour with the town of Avalon and visit the incredible basilica of Vezelay, which, as a masterpiece of romanesque architecture, has become part of UNESCO's World Heritage. You'll drive across the green hills of the Morvan Regional Park on your way to Dijon and its colored roofs. And then, it's off to the wine trail up to Beaune and its Hospices, through Clos Vougeot and Nuits Saint Georges, Puligny-Montrachet... It would be a shame to miss this one !

The Perigord is without question one of the most extraordinary regions of France. It is an area of great cultural, historical and gastronomical wealth. If you follow the majestuous Dordogne, you will discover a microcosm of French History, from prehistoric times, with the caves of Lascaux and Ezyes de Tayac, to the middle ages, with its fabulous castles, Castelnaud and Beynac, as well as fortified towns, such as Domme, Belvès and Monpazier. The Perigord offers other fascinating historic sites such as Sarlat La Canéda, La Rocque Gajac, Saint Léon sur Vézère, Saint Amand de Coly, which you can visit while enjoying the area's specialties like goose or duck foie gras, dishes made from walnuts and truffles, accompanied by the great wines of Bergerac and Pêcharmant, Montbazillac or Montravel...

Set in the heart of Europe, Alsace, despite its war-torn past and forced changes of allegiance, has maintained a very strong unity, that can be clearly seen in its architecture and heard in its German-influenced dialect. The scenery here varies between the vineyards of the Alsatian plane and the forest-covered Vosges. Start your journey with Strasbourg, which, aside from being an important local and European political center, is also a beautiful town. Be sure to visit its gothic cathedral and see its clock. When you drive south towards Mulhouse, you'll discover wonderful towns such as Riquevir, Colmar, Eguisheim, Guebwiller and the medieval castle of Haut Königsburg. Don't miss the awe-inspiring vista from the Grand Ballon des Vosges. Alsace is also a great wine producing area and you might want to visit the vineyards (and try the wine!) of Sylvaner, Riesling and Gewürtztraminer. If you are looking for a genuine experience, Alsace is the place for you !
