Meet us next to the Porte Noire to start this private tour of Besançon. Throughout the visit, we'll discover the notable corners of the capital of the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region with a guide exclusively for your group.

As we journey through this city renowned for its art and history, we'll find that it is located along the banks of the Doubs River. While strolling its streets, we'll uncover why this area is known as the clockmaking capital of France.

The tour continues through the historic center of Besançon, exploring its streets to see the mansions from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. Take note of the intricate rooftop architecture.
