Jamie & Joy's Insider Tips
- Best Time to Ride: The ideal months for cycling Burgundy are May through October. You’ll experience mild weather, blooming vineyards, and vibrant village life. Avoid peak tourist traffic in July and August and be prepared for more congestion in October during the wine harvest (vendanges).
- Don’t Miss the Beaune Saturday Market: If your tour includes a weekend, spend Saturday morning at the Beaune Market—one of the best in all of Burgundy. Local cheeses, produce, and handmade goods spill from the medieval square. Market info here. Market Info here.
- Alternate Market Days in Dijon: If you’re starting or ending your tour in Dijon, explore the Les Halles covered market, open Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. It’s the perfect spot for picnic supplies or a post-ride lunch. Visit Dijon’s tourism site for opening hours and vendor highlights.
- Explore Nuits-Saint-Georges: This historic wine village is a must-stop on our Dijon-to-Beaune cycling route. Grab lunch in a quaint café and taste world-class Pinot Noir at local caves (wine cellars). More info here.
- Cooking Classes in Beaune: Add a hands-on gourmet experience with a cooking class at The Cook’s Atelier, a boutique culinary school beloved by foodies. Reserve early—it fills up quickly, especially in summer.
