Between Paris and Lyon, Dijon is the perfect place to sample Burgundian cuisine and admire Medieval architecture.

Dijon is a city in eastern France, and is the capital of the Burgundy region. The city has retained varied architectural styles from many of the main periods of the past millennium, including Capetian, Gothic and Renaissance. Many still-inhabited town houses in the city's central district date from the 18th century and earlier. Dijon architecture is distinguished by, among other things, toits bourguignons (Burgundian polychrome roofs) made of tiles glazed in terracotta, green, yellow and black and arranged in geometric patterns. The historical center of the city has been registered since July 4, 2015 as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

We were very pleased with the cost of the trip, and have spoken to others who couldn’t believe we did the trip for such a good price. The best thing of all was that upon arrival we had no stress, as we always knew we were sorted for the night. Our trip was amazing and we have recommended your site to others. Congratulations and thank you to your whole team for providing such a wonderful holiday experience.

I came across your site and immediately found it extremely user-friendly and easy to navigate. All of the available options, the layout, the mapping ability, and the hotel selection simulation and pricing calculations were honestly as easy as the click of the button. The live and direct links to TripAdvisor were extremely helpful! I have to say, despite reading the testimonials, I was really nervous about using it, but eventually your site proved to just have better pricing overall and easier mode of selection. And I realized everything worked SO SMOOTHLY! Every check-in experience was ultimately seamless. It left more time for enjoying our travel :) I honestly believe that using RoutePerfect was one of the best online customer experiences I have ever had, if not THE BEST. Your staff was extremely responsive, and made me feel truly at ease by being friendly, courteous and reassuring. RoutePerfect is honestly THE BEST TRIP PLANNING tool I have ever used. I have already recommended RoutePerfect to my group of friends. And I honestly can't wait to use your site for booking my next European adventure.
