Travellers staying in Lyon with a free day and no car. A first taste of Burgundy: reds in Pommard and Volnay, whites in Meursault. Four guests who would rather not carry their wine on the train (the door-to-door plan). ### Is a wine day from Lyon worth it? Yes, if you leave early: the Côte de Beaune is about 1 h 40 away by direct train, which leaves six to eight hours among the domaines. A night in Beaune makes the trip more relaxed if you have the time. ### Train or driver from Lyon? The train with a driver waiting at Beaune station costs less and suits one to four guests travelling light. The driver from Lyon and back saves the two train journeys, and suits four guests, early starts and wine bought by the case. ### Are the tastings included? No. Your driver helps you choose and book the domaines, and you pay each tasting to the domaine on the day. ## Other trips - [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 - [Five days on the Côte d’Or](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages/five-days-on-the-cote-dor): 5 days · First wine trip · from €695 per car - [A slow week in Beaune](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages/a-slow-week-in-beaune): 7 days · First wine trip · from €850 per car - [All multi-day trips](https://www.cote-privee.com/packages) --- Canonical page:
