Our guide Sasha took us through beautiful Burgundian landscape full of wineyards explaining us Burgundy's wine-making traditions. It was short 3 hours tour, but we saw and heard a lot and tasted different wines of two different wine-producers. The tour gave good overview of the region's wine-making history, complex classification system and terroir as well as many other aspects thanks... More

We took a 4 hour tasting tour. What a dissapointment. We spend almsot the entire just driving in the minivan! And the tour guide was not very talkative, instead we had to pull out information from him like pulling out teeth. We also did not go to a real winery to taste wine. Instead he took us to a wine...

Nicolas took the 4 of us for a full day tour and we all loved the time with him. It was educational, entertaining and relaxing. We have done wine tours in Napa so our goal was to taste the wines and enjoy the culture rather than see the wine making process. The tastings at two different vineyards gave us 5... More

We booked a private wine tour with Emmanuel. I was a bit hesitant to book a private tour as our wine knowledge is minimal. Emmanuel was fantastic! I think he realized early on that our knowledge was lacking and he tailored his comments to our level of understanding. In addition, Emmanuel was extremely knowledgeable of the evolution of Burgundy's wine... More

While on a 6 day vacation in Paris, we decided to take a 1 day trip to Dijon specifically to go on a wine tour. We found the Authentica Burgundy and Cheeses tour and read countless great reviews on trip advisor, many of which claimed it to be the highlight of a vacation. With that in mind we shelled out...

I booked a tour with Authentica at the Information location in central Dijon. Took the discovery tour which included a wine tasting plus a tour around the the Haute Cotes. It was a great trip. Immanuel was friendly and helpful. Asked about how much time we all had-tour actually ran over by almost an hour-very well worth it. beautiful scenery,... More

One of the most enjoyable tours we’ve ever taken. We had the pleasure of spending 2 days in Burgundy (late March) with Nicholas, who not only guided us thru the beautiful Burgundy area in their modern van, but taught us about how to grow grapes (the concept of terroir), production methods and finally the tasting of some of France's finest...

This was one of the best tours we signed up for during our vacation to Europe last summer. We were met with a very knowledgeable guide who took us on a tour through the picturesque villages and ancient vineyards outside of Dijon. We were able to experience several delicious wines-however-the best part was learning how to decipher the code of... More

Being a lover of Bordeaux meant Burgundy was a bit of a mystery to me. On the tour Nicholas was thorough from the very start but made it easy to understand whilst exciting at the same time and i could tell he loved the world of wine just as much as me.. Since being back in London all i think... More

We visited Burgundy in October 2011 with friends. We are wine lovers and were recommended to tour with Authentica. This was one of the most intimate, educating and memorable experiences of our trip. Jean Michel Lafonde is very good, multi lingual and most importantly his knowledge of the terroir, histroy, vineyards, wines and vineyard owners is brilliant. He also went... More
