BEDAZZLED BY BURGUNDY
Dotted with mustard fields and
medieval villages, Burgundy’s
rolling green countryside beckons
to be explored. From charm-filled
towns like Beaune and Auxerre to
the handsome capital city of Dijon,
discover architectural gems that date
back to the Renaissance, Middle Ages,
and Gallo-Roman and Celtic antiquity.
Wine and food take center
stage here. Burgundy’s vineyards
have earned UNESCO World
Heritage status, a nod to the
region’s centuries-old history of
viticulture and the vast diversity of
its winegrowing terrain. No visit is
complete without a vineyard tour and
a taste of the region’s best eats, from
classic beef bourguignon to duck
rillettes and coq au vin.
PASSIONATE ABOUT PROVENCE
Gastronomic wonders and gorgeous
vistas create an intoxicating mix
in Provence, the fabled region of
southeast France. One of the great
joys here is touring the back roads
and making your own discoveries:
terraced villages, ancient olive
groves, fields of lavender, and even
snow-tipped mountains.
Along the way to iconic cities like
Arles, Avignon, and Aix-en-Provence,
take in small towns, clifftop walking
trails, and legendary vineyards.
Provençal red and rosé wines are the
pride of the region—ready to be paired
with bouillabaisse, ratatouille, and
anything cooked “a la Provençale” with
a mix of garlic, olive oil, and olives.
