Chardonnay lovers who know Meursault and want to taste the south. Travellers arriving from Lyon or Geneva, whose motorways pass the Mâconnais. Walkers: the round trip up the Roche de Solutré takes about an hour. ### Is the Mâconnais worth the drive from Beaune? Yes for white wine lovers: Pouilly-Fuissé and Saint-Véran are about 1 h 10 away, and the Roche de Solutré and Tournus make the day more than a string of tastings. ### Why two extra hours for the Mâconnais? The loop with Tournus covers about 210 km, more than a full day of eight hours allows with three tastings and lunch: two extra hours give you ten. ### Can we climb the Roche de Solutré? Yes, on foot: allow about an hour for the round trip from the foot of the rock, more if you linger at the top, and wear shoes with grip, as the stone can be slippery. ## Other trips - [Two days in the Côte Chalonnaise](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages/cote-chalonnaise-2-days): 2 days · Southern Burgundy · from €740 per car - [Three days for a first wine trip in Burgundy](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages/first-wine-trip-3-days): 3 days · First wine trip · from €360 per car - [Three days among the grands crus of the Côte de Nuits](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages/cote-de-nuits-grand-crus-3-days): 3 days · Côte de Nuits grands crus · from €610 per car - [All multi-day trips](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages) --- Canonical page:
