Dijon is a thriving city in Burgundy. The city centre is built in the splendid style of the Dukes of Burgundy, and it's still extremely grand. Car hire from Dijon can help you make the most of this varied city, which has shopping, high class restaurants (and traditional low key ones), as well as a lake, where you can go rowing, and a venue for horse drawn carriage rides. Hiring a car from Dijon is perfect for getting out into the Burgundy countryside, where you'll find rustic cafes and plenty of opportunity for hiking, cycling and horse riding.
The Burgundy region is characterised by vineyards and serene country towns. Car hire from Dijon makes it possible to be in Chablis in an hour and a half. This town was part of a pilgrim route, and you can see the old horse shoes that they used to leave by the doors of the churches. It also has a gorgeous park, and lovely cafes in the centre. The town of Noyers is also an hour and a half away when you rent a car from Dijon. This town still mainly consists of medieval timber houses, still beautiful in form.
