Conflans-Sainte-Honorine to Vezelay: Private day trip

Begin your pilgrimage at Sainte-Marie-Madeleine Basilica, one of France's most important Romanesque churches where pilgrims have gathered for nearly a thousand years before heading to Santiago de Compostela. Marvel at the extraordinary tympanum depicting Christ in Majesty and the mystical capitals carved with biblical scenes throughout the nave. Climb to the Gothic choir for stunning views over the Burgundian countryside. Walk the medieval village's single main street lined with ancient stone houses, artisan shops, and centuries-old ramparts. Visit the museum in the old town hall and explore the surrounding countryside with its vineyard-covered hills. Experience the spiritual atmosphere that has drawn pilgrims, including Saint Bernard who preached the Second Crusade here.
