      Beautiful country, fascinating history, delicious wines!
      This was a great tour through the Grand Cru region of Burgundy. Our guide, Lorenzo, was very knowledgeable, interesting and funny. The van was comfortable. The wine tasting was wonderful and the cellars underneath were quite amazing.

      Excellent vineyard experience
      We had a great afternoon exploring the vineyards near Dijon, visiting a historic chateau and tasting 6 different Burgundy wines. Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate and the whole afternoon was very enjoyable.

      Experienced and passionate guides
      The guides were passionate and knowledgable. We learnt a lot from them particularly the area and the terroirs of the place. Our guides Thomas and Leonie are very experienced and passionate and willing to share their knowledge about wines. We enjoyed the tour lead by them and my kids loved them very much. Will definitely recommend to join their tour especially Thomas.

      Quality afternoon.
      Spent an afternoon with Laurent who was friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great overview to the region and its wines with a touch of commercialism. We did purchase wines to be shipped home as there were many of high quality to choose from. Great experience.

      Er BS 23 reviews·28 photos 11 hours ago NEW Guides Thomas and Leonie were so delightful, considerate and at the pinnacle of service/hospitality industry. Vans were clean. Child booster seats, drinking water were prepared, and driving was safe (most would take these for granted). Interesting, educational and interactive commentary and they were systematic with information dissemination. We were so glad we organised this winery tour with Authentica, and had Thomas and Leonie as guides.

    Our group (two couples) had a great day in Burgundy with Sonia as our guide! Sonia was the best-- she was incredibly informative and we learned so much about the region and wines. The two tastings were excellent and we were spoiled by the quality of the wine. Our free time in Beaune was the perfect amount of time to wander in town and have some local beef bourguignon. We would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about and taste the wine of the region. Thanks again!

    It was great tour with my friend!
    Our guide 'Leonie' was so kind and tried to give more information of Burgundy wine.
    As it was January, most of wine shop closed in Beaune.
    All the wines which we tasted was great!
    Thankyou 'authentic' and 'Leonie'!

    Very fun itinerary, we couldn’t have had a better guide (Johan), and superb wine and food! Highly recommend! Great restaurants in Beaune during the middle of the day. If you want to visit the hospital in Beaune make sure to either get tickets ahead of time so you have a reservation or dont spend too much time at lunch (an hour) so you have the other remaining hour at your visit to explore the hospital.

    Another note about shipping wine to your home if you decide to buy wine, ask your tour guide how this works before purchasing the wine if you don’t already know. From my understanding, you can ship 6 bottles of wine to the USA for $120 for shipping only in addition to the costs of the bottles of wine. The 6 bottles of wine also don’t all have to be from the same winery. If you decide to purchase the wine and have it shipped, you have to pay the higher price for the bottle for the VAT(?). Long story short, plan ahead if you’re purchasing the wine bottles and shipping them back home.

    Thanks Lilian for your positive feedback and sharing these tips. Those who wish to buy wine -but no obligation during our tours- for shipment outside the European Union benefit from the Tax Free wine price, which is a 20% discount on the price of the bottles. Emmanuel / co-owner

    We spend a full day with our guide, Ann, who clearly explained the Burgundy region history and rich insights about the appellation vineyards and winemaking industry. She is a highly credible expert in Burgundy wine, answered all questions, and kept the day interesting, fun and entertaining - a high energy people person. The two wineries we visited offered a generous variety of exceptional quality wines to sample - we purchased two cases and Ann arranged all of the shipping for us at competitive rates. The free time in Beaune was perfect for a nice lunch. If you’re a wine fan this is the one - highly recommend!

    The entire trip was amazing. Beautiful sites and excellent wine. Our tour guide Antonne was amazing. He was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Have been on wine tours around the world and this was the best, in part to the area and history and the wine but also in large part to our guide.

    One tip, bring cash as you will likely want to tip your guide but some wineries will offer a small cash discount.

    My partner and I were very pleased with this tour. We both came away from it having learnt so much about Burgundy wines and viticulture. This owes much to our incredibly learned guide, Léonie. She had a wealth of technical knowledge and was willing to share this with us at every opportunity. She was good humoured, well organised, and actively participated in the tour experience, asking us questions and partaking in the tastings, rather than just standing on the sidelines. We certainly recommend this tour to others and hope that they too have the chance to learn and enjoy Burgundy wines under Léonie’s expert guidance.

    I've been on 2 tours like this and have always liked them. It's a small group where you get to know some people from around the world and visit a couple of nice wineries while learning about the area, the wineries themselves and ultimately the wine. This experience was similar but worse for a couple of reasons. Starting with the positives: The van that held the 6 of us was relatively comfortable and the ride from each location wasn't very long. The wineries themselves were excellent. They included great viewing areas of the winery, a quiet and dedicated place to try the different wines, for one of the wineries there was a guide who was very helpful and informative, and at each winery we tried 6 different wines. The last wine that we tried was a $200+ bottle, which was exquisite. The negative of the trip mainly had to do with the guide. He was extremely nice but unfortunately: while driving and describing what we were going to see and reviewing the history of the area, he did not talk loud enough at all to hear. So for 2+ hours of total driving we missed everything that he was talking about, which I consider a huge negative. We were in the 3rd row and the rattling of the van's cargo area coupled with his quiet talking made it frustrating. Secondly, while we did the wine tastings, he gave us little feedback as to his thoughts on the wine or any real insight into the wine that we were drinking, which was also a major negative. So, overall, great wineries and wine, but get in the first row of the van and make sure the guide is experienced

    It was my first visit to vineyards in France. The guide was Sebastian and he is really knowledged about wines. We visited vineyards in Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune. We took pictures at the famous Romanee Conti vineyard. We tasted wines two times in the tour. Each tasting included Gran cru and 1st cru classes wines. I really enjoyed the wines in Burgundy. Since it might be difficult to taste wines at domains without a local professional person in Burgundy area, I strongly recommend to join one of the tours. Thank you Sebastian​ for the precious time. I hope to see you again someday.

    This was our second tour with Authentica. We took a private full day tour 4 years ago and came back with another couple for another full day Burgundy visit. In both occasions our guide was Jeremie; I must say he gets better with time. He was great; very knowledgeable and more engaging. He was able to identify our tasting preferences and modified our afternoon tasting accordingly. He schooled us on geology, farming and viticulture in general. We all enjoyed our visit very much and would definitely come back.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our day-long excursion with our guide Antonin. Antonin was wonderful and went out of his way to make sure we had an excellent day. Bravo! He is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about wine, the region, etc. and he communicated that passion and knowledge generously throughout the day.

    Antonin always took the time to answer our questions patiently. He has a really excellent contact with people and loves his job. In addition to his passion and knowledge, he has a real sense of client service - we felt like we were VIPs all day! - and exceptional language skills. We feel very lucky and pleased that we were able to meet him and have him as our guide.

    We highly recommend this tour and the company Authentica.
