Auxerre Buses between the station and the town centre
Posted: Sat September 19, 2009 11:06 PM UTC
Hi. I wonder if anyone can tell much which bus I can take from the station (SNCF) to the town centre?

I had a look at the Auxerre Tourism site and there is bus information there, but I can't figure out which bus I need to take. I also sent the tourist office an email, but I've had no reply.

Many thanks

Bourgogne Day trips and wine tasting
Posted: Sat July 25, 2009 11:07 AM UTC
Hello everyone. We have the opportunity to cruise on a canal boat for two weeks from the 28th August leaving from St Jean De Losne. We would also like to take some day trips by either renting a car, taking a bus or via train and were wondering if anyone could suggest places of interest to go. We would also live to visit some wineries and have some samples along with some cheese if that is possible, any suggestions. Are there any fun runs in the district during this time? If any locals would like to catch up for a drink that would be great.

Dijon Restaurant for 18?
Posted: Tue March 31, 2009 09:08 AM UTC
I am going to be staying in Dijon as part of a group of 18, including children aged 10 and up. We are staying at the Ibis centre clemenceau. Can anyone recommend a restaurant that could cater for us? To complicate matters it will be Good Friday. Will this cause a problem? Our preference would be for bistro style regional food. Many thanks.

Dijon Going around with car this winter !
Posted: Mon December 8, 2008 07:10 PM UTC
Hi all.
My girlfriend is going to study 3 months, from Jan. 09 til late April 09, at the Uni in Dijon.
Luckily enough, I'm able to go with her.
To be abel to drive around in the region, we plan to take the car. (I know it going to be a long journey trough Scandinavia and Germany.)
What I would like to know, is what the road conditions are like in central Europe in winter/spring ?? (Like if it's icy, slippery, bare roads etc)
We would also love to visit Geneve and northern Italy. How about the drive there ?
In Norway, we have two types of tires. Summer and winter (With spikes)
I need to change from winter to summer tires in Denmark, since spikes is not allowed in Germany. Should I bring the winter tires to France, or just leave them at friends in Denmark ?

I hope somebody can give me a clue.

Take care,
Northy

Dijon Travelling Dijon - Zurich
Posted: Fri June 20, 2008 12:59 AM UTC
I need to go to Zurich for a 3 day stay from Dijon. Train tickets for the trip are around 290. I called a Hertz in Dijon and got quoted 105 euros for 3 days. Do you recommend that I drive or should I rather take the train and pay the extra. How hard is it to drive in Europe, especially Dijon - ZUrich?

Please give me your thoughts.

Taizé Visiting Taize in June 2008
Posted: Wed April 23, 2008 10:54 AM UTC
Hi. I am planning to visit Taize in June 2008 and this will be my first time in Europe. Is there a schedule/guiding tour for visitors during that period to which I can subscribe? How about accomodation? Is it better to stay outside the community or does the community has available rooms for rent..

Thanks for your help, as I am really looking forward visiting Taize this summer.

Dijon A day trip to Beaune from Dijon
Posted: Tue April 15, 2008 05:32 PM UTC
I plan to stay in Dijon for 2 full days. One of them I would love to spend visiting wineries around. I heard that Beaune is a nice town where wineries are actually located. Is it true? If yes, would that be enough just to get to town and explore it on foot? Or I need a car? And how do I get from Dijon to Beaune? It is three of us going and I don't seem to find a guided inexpensive trip to wineries. Any advise?

Hi there, can anyone give me an idea as to bus (or train) options between Vezelay and Cluny? We won`t be renting a car and I understand that this route is not so well serviced by public transport (I could find no train connections). Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Kristin.

Posted: Sun August 5, 2007 06:12 AM UTC
I am visiting Geneuille and Dijon next month. We will be renting a car and are very short on time. Is it better to fly into Paris, Zurich or Bern? We will have to drive to Geneuille the same day we fly - which drive is the easiest? Any specific advice about any of these airports, driving from these airports and crossing the border (if necessary)? Thank you.

Bourgogne The Canals of Bourgogne
Posted: Sun March 11, 2007 05:00 PM UTC
We are going to rent a boat and take it through the Canals of Bourgogne. We are looking at two options, Tonnerre-Montbard-Tonnerre
120 km-60 locks-30 hours
OR Digoin-Nevers-Digoin
198 km-44 locks-32 hours

We want the most scenic route, something not too rustic. We want to see and visit some towns from the canals. The Digoin route looks very rural/rustic but has less locks and more Kilometers to see more things.

the Tonerre-Montbard route has lots of locks and not much Km's but looks more picteresque.

Has anyone done this? Advice. Advice on other routes. We want to keep the cost down to around 600-700 euro just for the boat hire, 1 week. Just 2 adults.
Thanks.

Dijon Looking for a long lost pen pal in Dijon
Posted: Fri October 27, 2006 09:27 AM UTC
Dear VT,

This is perhaps the strangest request I have posted here. While clearing some of my old stuff , I chanced upon some letters from a penpal from Dijon that I lost touch with after I moved to Saudi Arabia for work. I have his name and can even find it in the internet, he is teaching in the Gaston-Roupnel College in Dijon. But I dont really know how to contact him . Would appreciate if anyone from Dijon can help me find his email address. Thank you

His name is - Karim Andréys-Kéroui

Thank you very much

Taizé attending Taize events
Posted: Wed October 11, 2006 06:33 AM UTC
Since I am a "mature" adult, I'm wondering if older adults can attend Taize workshops or attend the chanting services offered. Also does one need to stay in Taize a certain amount of days in order to truly benefit from the experience? Thank you very much. suzanne
