Dijon - Rick Steves Guidebook

He does not cover Dijon. But I was there in October and enjoyed it very much. We had a car and stayed in a great B&b in the Talant suburb. It was far from downtown and was very quiet.

The Michelin Green Guide should have a hard copy travel book that covers Dijon.

I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of Rick Steves' publications, so I cannot answer your initial question directly, but Dijon is a fairly large city (for France) with all that entails (traffic, Ikea, suburbs); however, the central city is quite beautiful with pedestrian-friendly streets, a self-guided tour (look for the small brass plaques with hiboux [owls]), half-timbered buildings, shops, restaurants, and a grand museum (Musée des Beaux-Arts) in the former palace of the Dukes of Burgundy, who were politically quite powerful in their day. The central city is within an easy walk of the train station.

The Musée des Beaux-Arts currently is being renovated but it is open during renovation and admission is gratuite.

As a geologist, I feel compelled to mention that Dijon is also where the famous French engineer Henry Darcy did the ground-breaking research that led to his seminal publication Les Fontaines Publique de la Ville de Dijon, in which he measured, and developed an equation to predict, the loss in hydraulic head as water flowed through sand filters, proposing a scientific law that is used daily by thousands of scientists the world over and that, to this day, still bears his name, as does the large square near the Gare du Dijon-Ville: Place Darcy.

A little background on Dijon and Henry Darcy is available in a non-technical paper by noted Canadian scientist Dr. R. Allan Freeze here: https://info.ngwa.org/GWOL/pdf/940659647.pdf

Darcy played a major role in bringing Dijon a modern water distribution system (a quarter century before Paris had one), the importance of which can be appreciated from the following quote from this paper:

"In order to appreciate the impact of the development of a
water-distribution system on a European city, one must envisage the
conditions that existed beforehand. In Paris, for example, at
mid-century (1800s) there was no water-supply system. The citizens of
Paris took their water supplies from roof-fed cisterns, or from
occasional wells, or from the River Seine and its various minor
tributaries. Water was distributed in the more fashionable
neighborhoods by porters with yokes and wooden buckets who wandered
the narrow street crying 'À l'eau! À l'eau, oh!'"

"There was no sewer system. Most buildings had an adjoining cesspool,
and 'in the early hours of the morning, great dripping wagons could be
seen as they lumbered through the street carting human waste out of
the city.' Neither were there storm sewers. Each rainfall carried off
what the wagons had missed and delivered it along the curbs and lanes
back into the Seine. The Seine was both the source and sink for the
Parisian water system. In 1848, the year of the February revolution,
20,000 Parisians died in a cholera epidemic. In 'Les Misérables,' Victor Hugo painted a picture of the squalor and filth of this era that is not easy to erase from the mind."

The best way to get an idea is to watch the TO videos and for sure they'll make you want to go and visit my beautiful and not over touristy town!
