Good tour

This tour was worth it. You can go at your own pace,stopping where you want to and then continuing on. It was thorough, fun and easy to find the landmarks. Recommended if you prefer to do this type of tour on your own

Ruined Holiday!

tericC2097EQ, Sept 2025

Holiday booked for 23rd August but by 21st, had not received key details. Rang Plum Guide who said they would look into it. Short while later, received email saying owner had cancelled and invoice attached for refund. So frustrated that I rang the owner who said there had never been a booking as she had only considered renting with them but changed her mind. At this late stage after desperately trying to find something else, had to spend our week at home. How can this happen? Should have read more reviews than I had previously. If you ever chance booking with them, call the owner to make sure property has really been booked.

Response from Host, Sept 2025

Hi there, Please note that this review has been left for the wrong business. This is a self-guided audio tour in Dijon, not a property that you can book for rent. I've flagged this with Tripadvisor but also request that you remove this and post it to the correct business. Thanks, Helene

This was a great self guided tour, we will do another the same in Beaune. Being self guided we were able to stop for food that looked good in the trail.

This was an interesting...

This was an interesting and informative tour. However, we felt that it could have gone into a bit more detail in some areas.
