A very good, well-organized trip. The second leg, Beaune to Châteauneuf-en-Auxois, is quite challenging when you don't have electric assistance, so it was perfect! The luggage transfer went smoothly. A very good first impression!

The route matches the description on the website perfectly. The staff were welcoming and helpful at all the sites we visited. Bike rental was excellent, and the luggage transport went very smoothly; the schedules were respected. The guidebook is quite comprehensive, but if you plan to enjoy nature with a picnic, I recommend checking the route before setting off, as picnic areas and grocery stores for small purchases aren't marked. If possible, choose your dates based on events and market days in the towns you'll be visiting. It's well worth it.
