What our guests say….
Here is a selection of the feedback and comments from our Wine Tour guests

Lynne and David are the best! We spent two wonderful days at six different wineries. They really know their stuff – from Hautes-Côtes to Côte de Nuits and from Village to Grand Cru. For relative novices like us they were gentle tutors but they could also dish with the wine experts that were also on our tour. There are an overwhelming number of Domaines in Burgundy and without an expert to guide you it is like Russian roulette. Lynne and David are passionate about giving you a taste of the people, wine and food of Burgundy. Thank-you! Ben Shockley and Molly Chartrand (Americans living in Germany)

"We want to tell you how Burgundy Discovery made it a five-star vacation for us. We planned this as a trip of a lifetime and you helped fulfil every piece we dreamed about. Meeting and talking with the winegrowers, walking through the vineyards, the delicious meals – we'll treasure the memories. Thank you for your warm and wonderful customer service" Malena Brohm, USA.

“I want to thank you for one of the highlights of the trip – indeed, two of the best days I’ve ever had. It was illuminating and fascinating to learn about Burgundy and to meet an array of interesting winemakers, experience their enthusiasm and taste their wines” Dean Karcher, Australia.

"Thank you for a fantastic day on Saturday. This was one of the most enjoyable days we have had for a long time and we learnt so much about wine. The organisation and your processes are perfect. You think of every detail and make the day a very memorable experience." Martin and Ines Hunt, Germany

"We had a wonderful time with you. You choice to move to Burgundy and do wine tours was an excellent one. The highlights were meeting and speaking personally to the winegrowers and the outstanding lunch. Your quick responses to me via email made the difference in choosing which tour group. You also have a very nice and professional web site." Matthew Ports, USA

"We want to say how much we enjoyed the two days of wine tours. You were informative, knowledgeable and engaging. You know the area very well and have set up a great relationship with the winegrowers. It was with some trepidation that we took the tour having experienced the "taxi tours" in Australia. You could not have been more different and for that we are extremely grateful. You ticked all the right boxes and we will call you again on our next visit to Burgundy" Rob and George, Australia

"Thank you for the wonderful experience you provided for us during our three days together. You guys made Burgundy our favourite stop in our European vacation. We'll be back soon." Jamieson Chua, Hong Kong

"I can't thank you enough for an absolutely amazing day in Burgundy. My first visit to Burgundy in 2009 was very brief for just one day with you both. It became one of my fondest memories and favourite places in the world. On our second tour with you in 2011 we truly gained a new appreciation for white wine – the flavours were so smooth and unique. The red wines were out of this world!" Michelle and Michael, Canada

"We cannot begin to tell you what an amazing experience you offered us on your wine tours. We loved every minute of it. Your tours are so well planned and the tastings so excellent, it was difficult not to buy many, many cases from each Domaine. Your knowledge and commentary during our tours truly enhanced our experience and tastings as well. The delicious lunches included in the tours were remarkable and such a nice addition to the true flavours of the region. Thank you so much for making our tour of Burgundy one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had." Mary McDonald and family , USA.
