Day by day
Lyon and Geneva airports are both under three hours from Beaune, so a crossing is easy: land at one, leave from the other, and let your driver take the two long drives. The light plan books the transfers and two calm mornings, one at the Château de Pommard and one at the Château du Clos de Vougeot, with a day of your own before you leave. The full plan gives the Côte de Nuits a full wine day and the white wine villages a half day.
