Fully Sober Chauffeur
Your driver does not drink during the tour. You have total freedom to taste as much as you wish at every producer — no driving rotation, no designated driver stress within your group.

Explore the wine regions around Lyon with a private chauffeur and enjoy a premium travel experience. Lyon is one of the most fortunate cities on earth for wine lovers. Three major appellation regions lie within an hour's drive: Beaujolais to the north, Burgundy to the north-east, and the northern Côtes du Rhône — Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Crozes-Hermitage — to the south. No other French city of equivalent size can claim the same proximity to wine regions of this calibre.
Our private wine tour service provides a sober, licensed chauffeur who drives you between producers while you taste, buy and enjoy the landscape. There is no meter running, no shared minibus, no fixed group schedule — the day is yours, and the itinerary is built around your preferences: whether you want three grand cru Burgundy estates, a morning among Beaujolais Crus villages followed by a cellar lunch, or a half-day exploring the granite slopes above the Rhône.
We can help plan the itinerary including producer recommendations, appointment booking at artisan cellars not normally open to walk-ins, and restaurant suggestions for lunch or dinner in the wine country. Wine purchases made during the tour are transported home in a protective bag we carry in every vehicle.

Your driver does not drink during the tour. You have total freedom to taste as much as you wish at every producer — no driving rotation, no designated driver stress within your group.
We work with small Beaujolais and Burgundy producers who do not advertise to the public. Access requires a prior appointment — which we arrange on your behalf when you book in advance.
This is not a shared minibus tour. The vehicle, the driver and the itinerary are entirely yours for the day. You decide when to linger at a cellar you love and when to move on.
The price confirmed at booking covers the full day, regardless of traffic or extra time spent at a cellar. No meter, no per-kilometre surcharges, no surprises on the invoice.
We carry a padded protective wine bag in every vehicle. Bottles purchased during the tour travel safely to your hotel. For case purchases, we coordinate direct shipping with the producer.
We know the best cellar-door restaurants, village bouchons and Michelin-listed tables in each wine region. We can book your lunch or dinner as part of the full itinerary service.
Select Beaujolais or Burgundy. Tell us your preferred wine styles (red, white, natural) and any producers you want to visit.
